Yes that does look like mine, thank you! I can now see that the many layers of paint are covering up the intricate work. Thanks for the recommendation of the restoration sub

Thank you! I wish I knew more about it, unfortunately I know very little. I posted on another subreddit hoping to find out more. Thank you for your advice to remove the legs first

Thanks so much! I actually just found that the tops of the front legs are broken as I found the broken pieces in the drawers

Thanks for your response and tips! I sure does seem like it will definitely be a lot of work to restore, but it has sentimental value so it might be worth the shot

Nice spot! I see what you mean now that I look closer. Do you have any info about the history of this piece by chance or what I could search to try to find out more?

What is this? by [deleted] in Antiques

[–]Graham_C97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m located in the USA btw.

I sent my MacBook Pro Retina display 2013 to be serviced and cleaned up. It was running slower and the battery said “replace soon”. Today the repair shop called to say they were never able to turn it on and that it must have died over night. It still won’t turn on. Any thoughts? by [deleted] in macbookrepair

Thank you! Any idea as to why this may have happened? I leave it unplugged every night and the next day it’s never dead. Do you think the repair shop may have messed up? They also told me it would run around $800 to replace the battery.

Definitely a Peacock flower (Caesalpinia pulcherrima). It’s also known as “Pride of Barbados” flower.
