I bought it in Mexico in the late 1970's and have enjoyed using it over the years in many different rooms of my home. I added some silk morning glories to the top just to give it more color. I don't leave it outside because it is wood and metal and I want to keep it out of the weather, but occassionally I'll take it outside just for special tablesettings, etc. I just love it and someday when I have a sunroom it will have it's own special place, but for now it gets displayed periodically.Hope every has a great day visiting our fine feathered friends!
