Antiquities are not a new thing so a description like that in Victorian times is certainly possible. I would have said circa 1900 but 1890 could...
I think hobbyist painted.
As I suspected, this is a child's chair. I was able to find several examples. Appears to be from the 50s-60s and an inexpensive import. Many...
Size? Childs chair? How is the decoration applied? As you can see, lots of questions and no answers at this point.
I don't see Rococo. Asian in origin and not all that old. Probably China but could be from elsewhere.
It is Asian but I don't think Chinese. Maybe Indonesian. They are known to use gesso with their carvings. I also don't think terribly old but...
I don't think this is steel. Does a magnet stick? Looks to be brass with tinned interior.
Interesting piece. Not walnut. I am thinking maybe post-war Philippines. It is not the typical work you see out of there but some of the...
Appears to be a circa 1900 mahogany empire revival piece. Is it really a sofa or a two person settee? These are not in fashion right now. That...
Would think 70s or later. Here in the Midwest you can pick up similar for $25.00-50.00 at auction or other wholesale venues. It would be around...
Circa 1880 Victorian mahogany. Usually you would see these with lions or griffins so the human heads are a bit unusual. You sometimes see...
Something about this keeps ringing a bell to me. Something about fitting in a tube to control air flow. That is all I have.
I don't think so. That seems to be a logical place for a seam to me. Not sure how these are seamed. Didn't think you could weld cast iron but...
Glaze is similar to some of the metallic glazes by Matt Fiske..... [IMG] There were some old European potteries making similar glazes but not...
I think too sophisticated for a hobbyist piece.
All I can say is that they are modern. Probably made sometime the last 30 years and likely an import. Have a contract furnishings feel about...
Certainly has some age. Quality of the decoration is not the greatest so don't think it is terribly old. Wild guess.... 20s-50s?
Not a whole lot of style to it. 3rd quarter of the 19th century pine "country" chest. Country because it is more likely carpenter built than by...
In the first of your new pictures, there appears to be a seam visible on the interior of the narrowest portion of the opening. If you can confirm...
Kennedy had at least two of these rockers so there are more than one original documented Kennedy rocker. This is, of course, a replica. Values...
