I am on board for this being early 20th century. Likely English. I have the twin, posted in the thrift store furniture thread. Sadly, mine is...
Long way to go with this. Expect the others will get some bids as well. Looks like you are off and running!
I see Zhao Rueijuan. I am not finding anything under that name or even similar.
Similar to Kaysarzinn, Orivit, WMF, and others. These companies usually marked their ware but not always.
Detailed help really depends on the material. Some pics would be helpful. Usually, best to completely disassemble, refurbish the parts, and...
In our vocabulary, anything younger than 1950s is modern. FWIW, I believe this is likely no older than the 70s and probably a decade or two newer.
Clean, then go over the surface with lacquer thinner to even out any existing finish. Re-coat with a tung oil varnish (matte or satin). May take...
I see this furniture in the thrift stores from time to time. Never very expensive and have seen the same pieces, later, painted in the resale...
Agree the first is Jewish, as Muslims do not depict the human form in their art.
French provincial styling. Maybe 70s or later.
I think 60s or later. Looks like Lauan plywood on the underside of the tops.
Would be Middle Eastern or North African in origin. Script is usually archaic and stylized to the point where modern Arabic readers can not...
Does appear to be bronze or, maybe, brass with applied patina. Styling suggests 20th century in origin.
[IMG] Here you go. Almost every contemporary furniture store had their version of these beds. Companies like Room and Board would have them...
Just no signs of this being antique. Have to think it is a 20th century example. Could have up to 50 years of age to it but, even that, would...
Definitely an oldie. Caned examples are not as common and make dating this a bit more difficult. The solid seat on most is a good clue as to...
I don't see tonalism, which presents an overall softer focus (atmospheric) view. You might say that the background of this painting shows some...
If this is lacquered originally, you will need to strip away any existing finish before this could be polished. Lacquer thinner should work but...
Nice box but calling it a sailor's ditty box is a big stretch. Reminds me a bit of Tunbridge ware. The flat key lock, while atypical, is not...
Very nice window and, potentially, pretty valuable. Agree with a late 19th century date. I think contacting a good auction company with a record...
Separate names with a comma.
