Thank you for the time and expertise! Truly appreciated. (Again!)
It's not sending a signal back to the mother ship, is it?
Hey-- first post ever on this thread! Here's two recent finds: a stone Inuit /Alaska sculpture that I haven't yet ID'd and a whiteware Hopi pot by...
And that is the truth!
I agree that it depends. There's some here in the city that consistently have good deals, and there's some rural ones way over priced and picked...
Agree. Also, that's a big second piece--again, nice find! Also also, can't imagine killing a bear w a knife. So maybe it's a post-mortem scene?...
Holy cow! Or should I say, holy whale? Well, as someone who is currently reading Moby Dick (!), I say, that's amazing!
Might be a hunter, partially hiding behind a blind used to sneak up on an animal / seal. I don't think the numbers on the front were original...

Is there an easy way to tell if it's cedar? The grain looks straight and fine to me, on the wings at least, perhaps suggesting old growth, but as...
I do think that it was painted or stained, and that it had a lid at one time, so those are good clues. When in doubt, it seems, a Chinese origin...
Nice! Thank you for identifying that!
Thank you-- I did wonder about the stone on the larger of the carvings, and if it wasn't serpentine.
Hello again, and Happier New Year to all! I have a couple more items that I can't identify. One is a larger basket, one in a lot of Northwest...
My goal is to get back on my bicycle for a long distance bike tour this summer, and, feeling safe to go into out-of-town antique stores, stupidly...
