I acquired this in an auction job lot several years ago and I've never been able to figure out what it is. It is obviously very well made with a...
I think this chest is probably 1850 or even earlier. The ends are solid and not paneled and the construction of the back is also earlier. I...
I used to be in the newspaper business and the issue of privacy and consent was an issue from time to time - consent is usually impossible in a...

I looked at the link and didn't see anything quite like this - similar colours but very few that were incised. Also the examples online were...
Can anyone identify this bowl? What is the significance of the imagery? It is gently cupped and does not have a flat bottom. It is 9.5" in...

This figure was acquired at auction a few years back in a small grouping that included 2 Maricopa pots from the 1960s and an Australian Wandjina...
