Looks like a match to me. Good work!
My experience is that fillers never quite live up to expectations. You are best to painstakingly piece wood in, glue, and clamp. Epoxys work...

This has already lost any patina it might have had so see no harm in further stripping and polishing that plate to remove the spots. Really think...
The market is holding its own here. We have no true traditional antique shops but do have multi-dealer shops that also sell antiques. Several...
These are mission style from about 1910. Look for markings underneath and on the back seat stretcher. Also one company marked theirs on the...
