Fayette Plumb II, 91, antiques dealer | Philadelphia Inquirer | 2011-12-09
Mr. Plumb, who learned cabinetmaking at boarding school and metalsmithing while repairing airplanes in the Navy, restored many pieces he sold. He was still working until weeks before he died, his family said.
An expert on 19th-century American antiques, Mr. Plumb gave talks at the Historical Society of Whitpain.
"He had a passion for poetry and nature, and you could still find pressed flowers among the pages of his poetry books from his school days," his granddaughter Vanessa Hartmann said. He was a master storyteller and instilled in his grandchildren a great love of narrative, she said. "Nearly all of us are writers and poets, and one is a documentary filmmaker," Hartmann said.
Mr. Plumb grew up on a horse farm in King of Prussia. He attended Episcopal Academy and graduated in 1940 from Avon Old Farms School in Avon, Conn., where he was senior class president.
He attended the University of Virginia before enlisting in the Navy.
During World War II, he served in Okinawa and in California, where he met his future wife.
