IRTA canoed.
I do mean the original insides, yes. Mid 19th sounds reasonable. If you can keep the webbing, do it - the more of this you keep true, the better.
Not done the thread yet, I will soon! That hat pin packaging is fab, innit.
I'd say kosher too. Nice bits. The carved jade brooch has some serious age: late 19th.
Nursing chair. The caning looks in decent order,which helps. I'd wax the leather to get some moisture back into it. As to the cushions, old velvet...
The Lancers badge is fine: they aren't exactly top quality to start with.

I've a lot of Doulton Lambeth, including industrial stuff. It's not one of their shapes, it's not marked, the glaze is wrong, so is the clay....
I've seen those marks here, but I can't remember who.Plated, yes.
The base glass ought to be clear, to my mind. I don't think it has a purpose, other than to look pretty.
Not funny eye sight, they're very roughly cut and shaped. I think it's craters, which is probably why I like it. You'd think a pelican and...
It's definitely not Doulton.
