So I am sure you are wondering what a Canterbury is:

Canterbury:

A term now applied to a stand with divisions for holding sheet music (though more often used for magazines and newspapers). It was originally said to have been a type of dumb waiter invented by an Archbishop of Canterbury. Sheraton describes it as “made to stand by a table at supper, with circular end, and three partitions crosswise to hold knives, forks and plates at that end which is made circular on purpose”.

Anyways, that bar is sooo hot!!!

I saw this buffet a day ago and did not post it. However the more I thought about it I realized how beautiful it really was. I think the most compelling thing about the buffet is the art nouveau-style front.
