Description

This is part of a wider set  from Lofer in the Tirol, Austria in 1950: a wardrobe, table, bedside cabinet and four upright chairs with 'violin' backs. All but the table are similarly decorated. The flower painter was 95 years old. My father asked him to include his name so two chairs are inscribed 'Lofer Land salzburg Mai 1950 gemalt Michael Stainer 95 Jahre' . I grew up with the furniture -very unusual in Wales in the 1950s!  I'd love to know of the family in Lofer still makes this. Thank you for your help.
