Here in Mass, the July Brimfield show is still scheduled, though I wonder if it will go ahead or not. Brimfield is outdoors (mostly) which is...
Thanks! Do you think the #86 is the date (1986) or an inventory number etc.? About how much have you sold these for?
Looks like "1788", with "MB" in the middle. Looks Northern European (maybe Scandinavian?), but I know American much better than European, so...
Not old, 20th century. Worth keeping if you need a chair and like it. Value is quite low if you want to sell it.
This is a very nice late 18th century Continuous Arm Windsor. No evidence that it has been messed with or parts replaced, other than the brass...
Thanks, yes I've looked and did again but couldn't find anything new. I think the best shot I have is the "No." mark but unlikely to point to a...
I think OBB suggestion of a dough box is most likely. The sloping sides on the liner makes that likely; classic dough box shape. The pedal is...
I'm not sure, but think this could be older than that; like late Victorian. It looks like there is a drawer that you pull out from the front - if...
I don't see much value or age in the lamps (which look mid 20th century to me) or tea set. The tea set looks to me to be 100 to 1 it is...
Oh, I completely agree. It would just give an "earliest possible date" at which it could have been made. Like a Chippendale style chair can't have...
You know, I am of the opinion that this is older than mid 20th century. I think late 19th or possibly earlier before marking by the country of...
Today was pickup day at the online estate auction I bought from last week. Online only, no shipping, from pics with no preview, three hour window...
Not sure this really qualifies as jewelry, but certainly a pin. Pretty large at about 3-1/2 in. by 2-1/2 in. Seems to have some handworking on it,...
I did some of the footwork; I was curious what it was worth; I've often been surprised that 18th century books don't usually go for much (true...
Thank you. I went back to try to take better pics of the markings. I tried the "cinnamon" trick. Actually I first tried the "cayenne pepper"...
I don't think anyone would make a knock off of a Stiffel lamp and fake the markings, there are plenty around without that. When Salton bought the...
So I guess you're saying the crazies aren't out - the crazies are in - and bidding on your auctions?? :happy: I did something new yesterday. I...
When I see porcelain figurines at estates here in the US they are either Hummels, or sometimes German-made, 18th-century-dress, model-types...
Thanks for the answer! I'm still happy to find out, so thanks for coming back to it. But now another question - I checked the site, and it looks...
A friend of mine hit the worst possible timing to open a new vintage/antique shop. After years of managing a successful vintage/antique business...
