And, I didnt even have to go to Saigon, just down to Nguyen Freres hidden store by the Opera. Apparently one of the Nguyen brothers travels around the Mekong delta and Saigon area looking for old French colonial Art Deco style furniture like these and takes them to their workshop where they give them a little shape-up. Most likely they are from the thirties or fourties or so.Everything that is less than a 100 years you are allowed to bring with you when leaving Vietnam...
