Nice sleuthing!
Looky looky….....
It does seem to be even worse than before. Can't give away some pieces and, unfortunately, many have succumbed to paint to make them saleable....
Think it is all rosewood. Used the odd piece on the top where it would not show as much. Not sure if this is Brazilian rosewood or Cocobolo.
This looks like MDF (Medium density fiberboard) Not in use in any large scale manner until the 80s.
Definitely not Van Briggle. My gut says Belgian.
Think these are imported miniatures without much age to them. As such, I think value would be pretty minimal.
I would think more 20s but suppose it could be as early as the teens. Walnut veneer with non-descript hardwoods stained to match. This would be...
Nice quality traditional antiques. Might find buyers in the Atlanta area but too rich for the blood of most folks here in the heartland. Even...
This is a different Alexander than the one I found. It may be a more likely candidate.
I would agree with 30s-40s. Not sure those pulls are original.
Value really depends on where and how sold. Similar fixtures can command good money from high end dealers once refurbished. It would probably...
Could buy revival and circular saw marks seen on the underside supports this. Just really didn't know that Federal was being revived in the later...

Relatively new. The Navajo do not have a long tradition of pottery making and this style of pottery is contemporary.
I think this is probably from a Southern pottery. Maybe one of the Cole potteries?
A bit early for me as far as expertise goes. I could see how these might be considered Federal but, if so, would think first half of the 19th...
Looks great, albeit a bit shiny. I am sure that a bit of time will take care of that.
I am on board with a 40s date for this. Styling suggest it is designed to go with the Duncan Phyfe furniture of the day. Sure it is not mahogany?
The company has made similar furniture for decades but don't think this is terribly old.
