Next up to sort and organize are the baskets I've collected over the years. Anything that looked even vaguely interesting I set aside without...
I've always ignored Haviland, but @bercrystal and @Ownedbybear mentioned on another link that it could be good, so here's my test case. 19th...
I'm not sure when to date this crate to. Size 31x15x16 inch. The stamps on top (Wilson $1) were first printed in 1938, and the "Air Force Postal...
This book has some condition issues, and isn't THAT old (1855 - but is that the printed date)? Based on the number of reprints maybe its an...
I'm still on the fence about this painting (but I have almost no experience with abstract work). The painting is large, 24x32 plus frame....
Here's a chair that I've had for a few years, and haven't been able to get rid of. Its not the kind of chair I normally collect, but there was...
I have way too many chairs, and way too many old windsors, but I am still always looking and will still pick one up if I find a good one. When...
Doing some sorting, so starting with the paintings in the worst shape (at highest risk of being discarded). This large ~34inch painting has some...
One final post before I get some sleep, this time a tray with (to me) some old looking embroidery in it. Once again my pics aren't great, in this...
I assume this is on copper though haven't taken the back off. Being painted on copper made it hard to take pics of, because it is so flat that it...
I can't figure out what else this could be, though I hope you will know. The tongue is hinged (see the metal pivot pin) and lifts up when pressed...
Saw this with silver-plate white metal scrap and thought it looked right for silver so picked it out. The only mark is the 750 with the serial...
Here's another grouping of soapstone carvings that I think are Inuit. I numbered them this time to try to make it easier to keep them straight....
I really, really need to do some sorting (add five more REALLYs from my wife) and I finally have some time. Start with these because I know next...
I've collected a bunch of old watches, and a few very nice ones, but most of the nice ones I get need some amount of repair. Here's one I just...
This was mixed in with some old tobacco pipes, mostly European. I can't see how it could be a pipe unless a lot of parts are missing, which is...
From the same physics professor's book collection, I found this. I found a reference to it in this list...
At an estate cleanout where books were being discarded, I picked these up though I had no expectation that they would be worth anything. After all...
Mentioned in another thread about tables, thought this thread could work to hold different antiques made with birdseye or tiger maple. I'll start...
Always interested in learning about things I don't know about yet, and this forum has had a couple references to Chinese embroidery, something I...
