Tin glazed faience, anyhow.
I agree with @kyratango in India. I've had wee boxes that shape with Indian marks.
It reminds me strongly of bone china I've seen in Turkey.
Explanations? For me, far too crisp, precise and almost machine made looking. (Which some of it may well be.) The interior has that box fresh shop...
My first thought was Chinese import.
Close ups please, including the screws.
Those are a pound or two each here, purely on the images.
People didn't own that much linen. It's a fairly typical size.
The balls are fine, and certainly original. I've just realised what these remind me of, and where I've seen that glass shade style. Foyer lamps...
Thought so. Paperclip? ;)
Pritchard will know.
The fitting is British, rather than European, but it mght well have been changed or updated. That pineapple finial is very British, and the shape...
I have a slightly cheeky suggestion. ;) Email this bunch: https://www.drewpritchard.co.uk/ Say you might be having them restored or even selling...
British fitment, then. ;) I'm now in two minds and wondering if they were converted. If they've no sign of that, then I think they're later than I...
Silver dip. (shudder)
I think they're period - late 19th/early 20th. The glass and metal links look right. Are you sure they're metal? They look as though they're made...
Polish, but never Tarnex please.
I've got an unmarked similar vase somewhere in the hoard. It's a classic Art Nouveau shape, albeit mine has straight arms[ATTACH] .
Linen cabinet. Might be Irish, as it looks English, if that makes sense. Burr walnut. I'd have thought earlier than 1900.
More and close up photos please. The style is early 20th C, but those were reproduced in the 50s. Sounds like they may be ormolu, or some muppet...
Separate names with a comma.
