my mushroom chair and old shelves. I  my old weird 70s furniture. |

Since most of my furniture is old & crappy, I'd save none of it. However, I'd save our computer if that was possible. It's not even a year old yet & it's too young to die. |

F**k the furniture, I'm saving my records! Assuming they are safe I'd go for.......the table/book shelf that spins made by my Papa. I'd have to empty it of all the magazines in it though. Then the shelf/clock my step dad made. |

I have two solid cherry end tables. This is a good question. I have some filigree wall shelves that are antiques, wow what a choice. |

The ugly hand made antique couch and chair that I inherited. It has been in our family since they were made by my ancestors seven generations ago. |

My bookcase and computer desk. |

I don't think I have much attachment to my furniture. I'd got for other things, smaller, more portable things, things that contain information that's valuable to me. |

There's nothing I'm particularly attached to |

if my important papers were already safe, then i would pick my new TV and my computer. if my important papers were not safe then the file cabinet and my computer. |

It wouldn't occur to me to try to save furniture. |

If my apartment building was seriously on fire and my place was going to be destroyed, the last thing I'd be doing would be dragging furniture out of my place. I'm on the fifth floor. You are not supposed to use the elevator during a fire, so I would be lugging this crap down the stairs. I don't think so. It can all burn for all I care. |

Hey bill, where did you get that new avatar? It looks very familiar to me, but I can't place it. |

Every time I look at Bill's avatar I keep expecting drool to come out of the corner of its mouth. |

I can't think of a piece of furniture I'd take a risk on. My computer is another matter. |

It's a crop from "Portrait of the painter Franz Radziwill", by Otto Dix 1928 |

What about your couch and your bed?? |

Cedar chest that's been in my family for years. It came over from "the old country" or something. I don't remember how far it goes back. Anyhow, the last person it belonged to, before me, was my dad's sister who was murdered. Anyhow, I've got some attachment to it. Not to mention it's got a lot of stuff in it that are important to me...things Caleb's made me, things that belonged to my mother, things to I got from my grandparents, stuff like that. Priceless! Any of the other furniture I wouldn't care about. |

In this house couch & love seat. Brand new. In the house back home, the game tables my grandfather made. He used to have a construction co. and made a game table w. a checker board/ chess board top & each piece is cut by hand is over almost 100 years old I imagine & he also made a small side table w. the same pattern. It is triangular in shape & I assume it was used as a side table to place beverages or snacks. They are priceless to me. |

Nah... they're easily replaceable if need be. |

I would save my cedar chest that belonged to my mother. Also I just recently got a new couch and love seat (never had a new one before). The couch and love seat is a pair so can I take them both and my chest too? Please?! |

I have a really old telephone table, There are also the two paintings my mother made which aren't furnature I know.... |

I could tell it was a crop (or "detail" as we used to say). Okay, Otto Dix, yeah no wonder it looked familiar. I was just looking at one of my art books earlier today that has this one by him in it:
That's the central panel from his "War Triptych" (1932). |

I wouldn't save anything. Everything that I have in the furniture department is replaceable. |

I have an old chest that I got for my 21st birthday, and a carved wooden table that I bought in India and carried home in my hand luggage. Those are the only two pieces of furniture that I own in my current home. |
