Looks like walnut to me.
These need frames to have value. If you take the time and $$ to frame them, you may have lost your profit margin. Here in semi-rural Midwest we...
If this is true, it is going to be impossible to date this with any certainty. That saw mark is from a wide circular saw and puts this to mid...
I can't read the signature but an antique one would likely be unsigned. I just don't see the quality or apparent age signs for this to be...
Look at the hand-cut dovetails on those drawers. This is not from the 1920s.
In my semi-rural Midwest location, we would be lucky to get $150.00 at retail. It would sell for 1/3 to 1/2 that at auction or other wholesale...
Not art nouveau, which would be from an earlier period and different stylistically. The decoration on the skirt is more art deco than anything....
Doubt it is so much a hidden drawer as much as it is an expansion table. The top should flip open to create a table twice the size. Circa 1930...
I would tend to think Austrian tobacco jar but very well could be German.
Early 19th century would make this 200 years old. I don't see anywhere near 200 years of age to this. It is a nice table and hand carved but...
Large office or library desk but have no idea what the cubbies are for. Has good age to it. Maybe 1870s.
I really like this. Style of the decoration suggests 20s or so Chinese.
As noted, this is 20th century. A lot of this type of thing is being made in Egypt these days. The intricacy and quality on this is nicer than...
Can we see the whole thing from the front? I am thinking an import that might not be as old as you might think. Maybe made from old wood.
I guess the Campbell's kids are not readily recognizable to a few younger generations. It seemed they attempted to bring them back at one point...
If you unscrew the thumb screw, it looks like the plate it is attached to should hinge up to release the shaft.
Probably for some kind of scientific or trade instrument that needed protection and portability when not in use. There are any number of such...
The two screws are just to attach the metal assemblage to the frame. The thumb screws should tighten the plate against the shaft enough to keep...
This is not Heywood Wakefield but there are certainly similarities. It also, unfortunately, will not approach the value of Heywood Wakefield.
circa 1940 is right on for this. Late art deco or sometimes called art moderne, though this is a bit pedestrian for the style.
Separate names with a comma.
