Well Friends it's time to bring you, some garden whites for today's ~Vintage Thingies Thursday~ And for ~Show And Tell Friday~ I always have a great time seeing every ones collections for each of these blog party. Today we have a set of cast iron German garden furniture. The set is from about 1845-1860. They were cast in Europe and brought over by someone who couldn't leave them behind. The chair that our girls are sitting under was the first one I bought, in Palm Springs, 12 years ago. I just loved the rams head on the armrest and all four feet are hoofed. The back slat has two dolphins facing each other. The bench and the other chair have the same pattern.
