You didn’t say the size, or show both sides. These look neither tribal nor bronze/brass to me based on your pics. From what I see, these look like...
Great advice, and my hands are down too. The other giveaway besides the outward carving and appearance is the secondary wood here - another...
I don't suppose they turned up any names or other info, did they?
Thank you for that very interesting and informative post. Way more information than I expected, and it sent me down a rabbit hole searching museum...
I have to say I've never come across the designation "Charles II" in describing American furniture, though of course it is used for English...
.. unless I haven't been paying attention. Size about 28" by 32". Sorry the pics are on my car, but it the only outdoor semi-flat surface that has...
I’m pretty sure that is just the back of a fabric button, but I’ll check when I’m home. (I’m visiting my 93 year old dad at the moment. Downtime...
Usually no more specificity than “New England”. These are factory produced, and lots of the factories were in Connecticut (including Hitchcock),...
Please start a new thread with your chair, preferably before and after. Did you dye removable slip covers, or dye attached fabric while in place?...
Gee, I hope not, that would be disappointing. They seem to have a different insignia, so hopefully not (see below). I did search through medicine...

I agree, in fact this looks like it probably was made “here”, I.e. England. That said, time could vary a bit, since once again the most important...
I don’t see the vishvavjra design, but could still be from India do you think AJ? What is the size of top and bottom ring? You may want to move...
Good work on the pics, shows why pics are so important. These have three things going against them compared to bluumz table - 1 looks like Formica...
There’s a bit of confusion here. Altavista is a city in VA where Lane made and labeled furniture, so any furniture coming from Lane in that time...

Lookup “French Regence style”, which is what your furniture is meant to look like. Yours is clearly not period furniture, but other than looking...
Is it really aluminum? That alone must make it fairly recent (20th century). Your link at the met didn't work for me - what is that one made of?...
