For the new parent/grandparent who believes their child is a prince/princess:

Don't get me wrong, I think my little one is a prince, too. But this is just...wow.
I'm really wondering who it was originally made for. Bet it's got a heck of a history.

1. What a gorgeous piece of workmanship!

I wish I had a baby to buy that for. I bet it has a wonderful history.

2. Isn't it?

I'd almost wish to buy it just to have it, it's so nice.
Hope someone does the research on it sometime.
That's another reason I posted it here..figured it might get some good exposure.

3. Wow. That is beautiful.

4. That is absolutely beautiful.

If a couple knew that it would be cared for and passed down in the family then I think that would be an awesome cradle to buy. :)

5. Lovely, cradle

Makes me curious to know the history.

But judging from the workmanship, maybe the 1500 is a bargain.

People offload stuff all the time without knowing what it is.
