We were so intrigued by Frau's description of her credenza here that we asked for a photo. She not only sent us pics of it, but of the rest of the room it's in...

Her description: My biggest treasure and beauty is my first grown-up furniture purchase- wooden credenza from the 60s. It's in a good shape, has beautiful legs, deep drawers and chocolate-cherry color. Everything in my loving room was picked later to be a company to this credenza- even art. I am very proud of my first, "real" furniture piece.

Her follow-up email: As I mentioned in my post this is my first " grown up" furniture purchase (not from Ikea:) and my first apartment- I moved in 5 months ago so I am still settling in (I guess that the work & nesting will never end) The rest of my furniture was either a gift/found on the street or I got it free from someone (I guess that's the usual first apartment situation:) So welcome to my place- I hope you like it!

Thanks, Frau!
