First off, a shout out to @Barn Owl who posted some of this Portieux glass a half year ago in a thread. I saw these at a sale and thanks to...
Glad Davey linked my question about this from an old post. The takeaway: Be sure you have a towel under the piece when trying this stuff....
OP, check all the pearls --do you see any evidence of finish loss on any of them? If yes, you know there is some kind of coating. (Often the...
The set in the Ebay link has been relisted (currently unsold) with a Buy It Now at $650. Either initial sale didn't work out or seller had two...
I think it is a newer piece with a nod to an older look. Pretty, though.
"Vibrating (brass) plated steel... ... will last a lifetime". (According to above.) And the frame did last!
I'm floored anyone even came up with this match! Seems like a needle in a haystack. Wow, Brad! :) If older and painted, the OP should be able...
Well, both wouldn't hurt! :happy:
I would have thought newer as well just from the photos. Not sure we have anyone on the forum that can translate Arabic, but fairly confident...
Ack, missed one. OBB, add me to the list of folks who adore both pins, but esp. the Good Luck one. So unusual! Also, Peggy, hard to chose, but...
What a horrible thing, Asian Fever. So sorry. Make sure the owner contacts the police to report it. If the store winds up not being...
Wow, cannot believe the finds here. Aaron--once again. Also Evelyb, Peggy, DeAnne... that's about as far back as I went just now. Awesome...
I just googled, "felt doll, real teeth". Some things can't be unseen.
Googling "Handel floral stained glass" some have a similar look. I would keep researching. 22" across, there's a lot of work in it, for sure.
Are you buying it for yourself or resale? (Reason I'm asking, these ceiling fixtures can be hard to resell sometimes.) I would guess 1950-70s....
Great suggestion to take a photo of the dovetails, DeAnne. :happy:Revealed some info! Nice that was found. What a lovely piece.
Please go back and edit your pictures to: "Full Image". Easier to help you. Thanks! https://www.antiquers.com/threads/create-a-thread-pics.107/
That makes sense about lack of marks. Thanks. Since we aren't looking at the actual pieces though, and completely unmarked, if it was me, I'd...
Not an expert in these, but any markings on the pieces at all? Also is that box supposed to be original to the pieces, and if yes is the rest of...
Separate names with a comma.
