The Living Room of the Log House had amongst the most varied furniture in the house with oak, elm, chestnut, willow, and inlaid forms sharing the space. Like all of the bookcases in this room, these were custom made for the space from American Chestnut. One of four narrow bookcases made for house, these stood to either side of the two doors that led to the porch.
