Looks right to be old to me.
Thanks for the pics. Not a lot of care in constructing this …. looks much better from the front than the back. Think probably post-WWII some time.
Think 20s. Just passed buy similar bedroom furniture for $30.00 each piece that was in a bit worse condition than this at a local thrift. I...
Think circa 1920 is right so just or nearly antique. Not a historical reproduction but a traditional hodge-podge of styles. Mahogany is right....
My original thought was 20s-30s but that label makes me think later (50s-60s). Would like to see the entire back.
Would call them fall front secretaries. Agree with a 40s-50s date.
What immediately comes to mind is a Greek Sphinx, though usually depicted with a woman's head. I was able to find a couple examples of griffins...
Pretty minimal and somewhat specific to market. Here in the Midwest, I would be very lucky to get $100.00 at retail and might have to wait a long...
A replacement beveled mirror will be expensive. You might get a quote and see if it is worth it to you. I doubt it will affect value much...
1930s walnut traditional. Some Queen Anne elements but not a pure reproduction
1940s-50s mahogany
Think this is an advertising poster for Romm Art Editions ….. http://easthamptonstar.com/Archive/2/STEVE-AND-JUDY-ROMM-Romm-Art-Posters
After searching awhile, I am starting to see your problem. I am not finding any similar gas stoves of any brand. Most are not ornate, nor do...
Think you can compare to other similar ornate stoves of the period. Brand does not make a lot of difference for value on these things.
Sounds like you already know quite a bit about it. Short of extensive research into local newspapers and/or trade publications, there may not be...
Agree that context is important. Also, a look at the back might help. You mention mirror backing. Is it behind the grillwork?
One sold on ebay and is now on Worthpoint. I don't subscribe to know when and what it sold for but maybe someone who does will come along....
I know just enough to get me in trouble ….. that said, you might look at some Afghani tribals for comparison. Suppose it could be Persian...
Would think a late 19th to early 20th century curio cabinet, though you may have another name for such things in the UK. Motifs are certainly...
With the back end being flat, I suspect a bookend. Not sure why she is flat on top. Brass plated pot metal.
Separate names with a comma.
