The Zebra just got delivered. It could not be more beautiful. I cannot stop crying. The Zebra’s long journey is over. It is restored to its proper glory. My Daddy would be marveling at the craftsmanship that was hidden under the dark stain and dirt.

The Zebra is just plain gorgeous. The artists at Restoration House in Blowing Rock, NC brought it back to life to be loved by many more generations of our family. Thank you Klutz family!

I took photos of all sides, legs, tops, wooden wheels, drawer and back. (which is too pretty to be against a wall).

It will stay in the middle of the great room beside Daddy’s chair, so we can see it and pet it for a bit.

The Zebra top veneer was replaced by solid oak. That old veneer was missing a corner, crackly and warped. Now, the top is solid and ready to be used.

I am proud of the three or more generations of my family for having the insight to save it and transport it. It is finally where it belongs.

My heart is full. I only wish Daddy could have seen it. But maybe he can.
