I am in the ugly camp with this one. Looks to be relatively new for the most part. The base seems made up of parts both new and old. Think the...
.... so you are in England? The Mackmurdo foot was developed by Arthur Heygate Mackmurdo in the 1880s. Consequently, if English, this could be...
Based on everything I can see, I would think this 19th century if American. Why do you and Davey think it to be so much later? Not trying to be...
I think about 1910 or so with those Mackmurdo feet. Could be a bit earlier if English or Scottish. Wood is oak.
I think with a better and/or enhanced picture of this signature, we should be able to get this. I am not anywhere I can enhance this or would do...
What makes you think these are double walled? Is it the fire-polished neck you are talking about? Have been seeing this on some more modern...
Since the metalwork is American, might this be Steuben Aurene? The bottom looks right for it. Seems I also remember some with scratched numbers.
Do you have any provenance on this? I am getting the feeling that this is a newer table and not the antique it appears to be. Some pictures of...
Doesn't look a day older than 150 to me! Sorry about the joke but we really can't evaluate this from this one picture. Based on this and only...
Would think circa 1900. Value will probably depend on whether real leather or faux to some extent. Here are leather photo albums that sold on...
Containing costs is imperative. By far my primary expense in the brick and mortar aspect of my business is rent (Group shop so that includes...
Haven't really seen any changes of late here locally. The market is pretty much dead. No one cares about age or provenance any more. It is all...
I do think redwood or something closely related. The lighter part was the live outside edge of the tree when it was cut. Here is a live edge...
You may be right. I am coming from a Midwest American perspective. Have seen these marketed as servers here but they may be, indeed, considered...
Value may depend on how clean you can get that glass. I think this is easily a $100.00 item or more if you can get it clean and the seals are...
Opium smokers? Looks like the one has already partaken and his friend is supporting him. The quality is good but not the best. Could be older...
Probably English and agree that it is a server. Can't see details enough to tell age. Also agree that this looks like it is missing a top. A...
Possibly as early as the 20s or as late as the 50s. I think it is probably a liquor decanter. I've not seen this before. No marks?
Just saw your vase over in PGP . Double wow! Either piece are find-of-the-year type of thrift store items. To get both together is astounding.
The form and pattern looks like Sicard but I have not seen a bottom like that on Sicard before. Jacques Sicard came from France where he worked...
