I was going to guess Mexican because of the bright colors and overall feel (and because I see more of those than I do asian masks), but I think it...
Maps can be complicated since they were sometimes reproduced many times, so there can be multiple antique editions, as well as modern...
Could you take a picture of the front of one of the drawers but from the side instead of from the top? I don't see how a hand-cut dovetail could...
Thanks. I understand and I'm sorry if I seemed over-sensitive, I do appreciate the input freely given here and hope you'll continue to give me the...
I think sideboard is the correct answer, as a dining room serving piece and for storage of dining silver just as you are using it. Sideboard was a...
You can get an idea of manufacture date by looking up the most recent patent date; probably several years after that since there are still some...
Is the base broken or does it just come apart like that? If its broken, you'll want to fix it before selling, but should be an easy fix with glue...
I don’t think we even disagree. Fifteen, twenty, or so years old, authentic Native American piece, but not a well known maker. I just took isswith...
They replied very quickly, and said they were not interested, because they too have too many chairs. Oh well...
Which is why I appreciate the input here and will continue to do so. One thing I certainly have no clue about is what artistic roots a craftsman...

I have WAY too many old chairs, and try not to buy more. But this (almost) pair I couldn't pass up. Not really a pair, but close. The best part is...
2.99 at thrift so no worries. There must be a healthy industry selling similar to visiting tourists. Nice to see from cluttered and hunting (wait...
Thanks, cause I had no idea what PNG was! Is it a bird of some kind? What would it have been used for in the day, just decorative?
Def bronze/brass not gold. Cloisonné enamel. 20th century I believe. Looks Asian but not sure where.
Has anyone seen this signature before? If not could be a student piece I guess, though the pattern in the glass of the bowl is kind of nice....
Have no clue on this. No writing, painted wood obviously. Probably a tourist piece and not very old, but does anyone know what it is and from...
I live in the Northeast US, so I very rarely find a First Nations (I assume) piece. Probably isn't much, but I ran across this one, and since...
