This is undoubtedly my oldest painting, but also in abysmal condition. It had spent many years rolled up in an antique desk drawer, took weeks...
OK @mark737 , since you seem able to find both vintage furniture and hardware online to a supernatural extent, here is my challenge for you. It is...
More like mid 20th century plus to me. This is the type of carving that was driving extinction.
I have a dremel, but wouldn’t use it for this purpose. A fine tooth hand saw would work much better, look for a coping saw for less than $10.
That is an unusual escutcheon plate, turn of century perhaps? Worth looking, but I doubt you find an exact match. But you are lucky, it is very...
So how did it go? Did they clean everything out of your house, or are you left with stuff to move to thrifts, dumpsters, etc. Was it worth getting...
It’s glass, not resin, and could be used with a table lamp. I agree on age, though.
It looks like it is a game table with folding top? From these pics it looks more factory made turn of the century to me, with simple machine...
It’s a reproduction, and never used. If you translate you may find what museum or church the original is in.
Big heavy and hard to ship. There are a lot of them, but you have weights, which most don’t. If you had time you could sell it. Don’t know your...
One of a pair of spelter bookends. I like it, but eBay has a sold pair for $25 shipped, and a single for the same available now.
So it looks like you are there and have started sorting. But you have someone coming to set up sale and do pricing, so is that person going to tag...
Looks mid to late 19th century. I believe it is a factory made Hitchcock type chairs from that time period, but rockers added later and repainted...
Agree, Art Deco flavored mid century, solid maple. Let your yard sale person price it, will guess less than $100.
Not old, 20th century, Junk for the $5/giveaway pile.
That is the UL certification: up to 250v and 750watts. All UL testing for normal home sockets is tested at that level - check any other UL...
I highly doubt this is wired for 220v. But feel free to rewire as needed, there is no value other than as a working lamp. I suspect this might...
I think it’s safe to say that we all know the saying, that opinions are like —-holes and everybody has one. But maybe we should add to that, that...
Well, I hear you. But you think THAT is getting personal? When he stated in one of his posts that he set the option to IGNORE all of my posts and...
Yeah, but unfortunately some of the info is wrong. Right about the age and mix of woods, which was already said by others above. But these things...
Separate names with a comma.
