Agree, more art deco or seccessionist and likely European in origin.
No paint on the backside. Here are a couple close-ups of the stone shot through a magnifying glass . The second one is at more of an angle to...
I assumed it was probably English. Also makes perfect sense with your guild shops and such. We had some of this but not nearly as much. This is...
I assumed the door was probably present somewhere. Otherwise, not really worth asking about.
I don't see anything to suggest that this is a period piece. I would think early 20th century. The large holes for the screws are a way to inset...
Nice helmut! Here are the new pics. Not the best, as my camera just doesn't do shiny all that well. FYI: about 3" x 5/8" and three dimensional....
Size? Think the decoration looks more ethnic/folk than PA Dutch. Maybe Poland or Mexico?
Maybe Lapis? I'll shoot some more pics and post here. I thought it was the best of the bunch myself.

It is Czech/Bohemian. Have seen these referred to as a cactus vase. Searching that term does not bring up much. Searching thorn vase does bring...
Certainly better than firewood in any market. Just don't expect to make a house payment with the profit.
Take the money and run. I am not seeing anything all that special about this. Nice decorative thing but not really a map in any collectible sense.
Thanks! The damage on the etching is really too bad but I think I can get it looking better with a bit of cleaning and a strategically cut mat....
Bought these silver jewelry pieces from the thrift well over a month ago and am just now getting around to showing them. Truth be known, they...
Thomasville is reasonable quality mass produced furniture. It really is not collected. Some might pay a slight premium for it over some other...
I am coming to the conclusion that the pictures and information from the OP are not sufficient to really evaluate this piece. As indicated in my...
Generally, very shiny glazes like this are termed "High Glaze". You glaze has some great flowing crystalline properties to it. It has 3 stilt...
If American, these would be turn of the century. Can't imagine they would be too much different ther. Maybe slightly later? Look somewhat like...
Renaissance Revival so likely toward the earlier part of that time frame. Walnut with walnut burl veneer panel accents.
Separate names with a comma.
