It came from overseas (Europe) and before that from one of Portugal ex-colonies. Hate to see it go but we're downsizing, so it has to go. Unfortunately, the original stone was broken during our move to Hamilton. It would look great with a tempered glass though. Or maybe if anyone knows how to fix the original stone. It's in perfect. I don't know what type of wood it is.

Price: $250
