My favorite find child's toy ( I think) coffee table now.

That's really cool @Nyboy
Very different, surely have never seen anything like that!
One of a kind

Oh, I thought you meant an actual real lion cage @Nyboy . That one is more manageable and makes a much better coffee table. Creative use of it!

I found a old Victorian iron planter in shed. I bought a round piece of glass from pier 1 imports used for end table many years. now it is back in garden used as planter.

I just posted the lion cage on a antique forum I visit fun to see what said about it.

Have you ever seen another one like it anywhere?

Never someone posted they believe it was handmade for a child. Grandfather or father woodworker made as special gift. Only reply so far.

That is a very cool find, you never know, if it was handcrafted it is most likely the only one in existence!
By the way, Love the end table by your sofa!

every year just down the street from my neighborhood is a huge, multi family yard sale. i was able to get a couple items i want to work on. i've always wanted a nice rocking chair for the porch & i found one for $10 that needs to be sanded down, repainted & the webbing will need to be done. i also got from the same sale a brass Buddha head that i want to turn into a water fountain for my pond.

I love the multi family yard sales like a mini flea market.
