I agree with the not very old and asian mish-mash arguments. But let me add that this is not really a mask anyway; it is much too small and as far...
I don't know where Brad's chair is from since he didn't post a link, but if it is really from the early 20th century, then it is based on the...
This is on the stretcher. There is another one on one of the 24" stretchers that is stamped with a different font that is easier to read, and...
Upper part is indeed part of it with a semi-circle. I guess you're right about not impasto, since the shapes don't look like they could easily be...
So I had a chair that seemed to be mid to late 19th century, but with earlier looking spindles and stretcher. There it waited, hiding in my...
First of all, all great guesses. When you go to an auction, you have an expert interpreting what you are looking at. The experts aren't always...
OK, times up, you snooze you lose (James!). Be patient as I write my answer in the next post. [ATTACH]
I'm still on the fence about this painting (but I have almost no experience with abstract work). The painting is large, 24x32 plus frame....
Anyone else want to jump in? Is it time for the drum roll, or should we wait a bit longer (did I mention that I was a collector of old drums as...

Here's a chair that I've had for a few years, and haven't been able to get rid of. Its not the kind of chair I normally collect, but there was...
No you're right, it is called that these days; or to be more precise a step-down arrow-back windsor. Arrow-back spindles starting becoming popular...
Neat idea! I just tried it, but the coins don't weigh enough to move the tongue, so they just bunch up and sit on the tongue in the back of the...
Wonder if this would get any more views if moved to Pottery Glass section; @daveydempsey could you please do that? And putting out a last call for...
I have way too many chairs, and way too many old windsors, but I am still always looking and will still pick one up if I find a good one. When...
Once you get the chairs there could be clues underneath. Your ad says "models furnished by marina's Interiors, glendale" (or something close to...
I grew up with a rocker that is identical to the one in your pic (I don't have it anymore so can't check for the marking underneath). I think...
Take the lace off and it will be mid-century modern, and you can charge four times as much! (errr -but I guess 4x0 is still 0). Nice but not for me.
Thank you. Your wikipedia link was interesting, this sculpture was featured in the 1952 Italian neorealist film Umberto D (a really nice film...
