Think pretty new, though bought on the secondary market. Saw some brand new ones being offered. Sellers are not good in their descriptions....
.... So, AI says the mantra is for compassion, Om Mani Padme Hum. The cross symbol on the clasp is a Vajra or Dorje which is a Buddhist symbol...
As near as I can tell, this is a Buddhist mantra bracelet. The 6 symbols in a circle on the clasp, repeat on each link. Is the center symbol a...
Tried to tweak the signature a bit but editing on my phone is not the best. I think I see, Fi?? Seems to be just 4 or 5 letters.[ATTACH]
Latex paint usually comes off pretty easily. Soften it with a little furniture polish or an oil-soap solution and chip it off. A fingernail is...
I like all three. Any chance of a shot at the faint signature on the last one? Sometimes they show better in a photo and can be tweaked to make...

Circa 1900 oak press-backs. Certainly, part of a dining set. Seats don't look right the way they are upholstered.
.... Also, not seeing any originals with a cage-blown shade quite like this.
The fact that the one AJ posted is listed as a reproduction seals it for me. At $50, it is not a bad price, but I don't really want a reproduction.
