Seriously?!? That is too funny - but good to know. My mom has a piece with that type of teak grain and I can't wait to work it into conversation . . .
ReplyDeleteSo that's what they're called. No wonder it was so hidden to me. ( :
ReplyDeleteThe Andre Sornay bar is to die for.
Your credenza looks great as well.
@Tanya: I can't wait to hear how you bring it up...and how she reacts. :)
ReplyDelete@I dream lo-tech: I suppose it's not exactly the most frequently used furniture term...:)
ReplyDeleteI have a post devoted to Andre Sornay coming up soon.
great info...carpenters in India use stains to give that kind of finish on mdf nowadays...i never knew it was sought after :)...interesting etymology
ReplyDeleteThis is a fact I already knew, which tells you the kinds of people I hang out with lol...
ReplyDelete@Sudha: I thought it was interesting too!
ReplyDelete@1950sarh: I already had you pegged as a bit of a rowdy...just like me! LOL
ReplyDeleteHaha... you know what, looking at it, crotch makes total sense!
ReplyDelete@Flo: It really does...but it still surprised me. haha
