Seems to be Al Mettel. He puts an accent after his name that my print signature also has. Here is an example of another plate signature of his....
I am finding an A. F. Mettel and an A. L. Mettel (or is it Al Mettel?) that are possibilities. Think this might be the right track.
Small print picked on the roadside for free in a nice period frame (50s or earlier). Signed very small in the plate only. Can't find the artist....
Really depends on where you are and how selling. Less than $50.00 at retail here. Would not be worth restoring here. Most would consider it a...
Serial number indicates it was made April 5, 1974 at plant #2. Not among the Lane styles with collector value. Value is just as used furniture.
Wish it wasn't brown...... Other colors are more attractive but I guess I can't be too picky when buying at rock-bottom prices.
Hard saying what the replaced shade means to value. Many times, shades are replaced on lamps. That said, the configuration of the socket and...
I am not finding confirmation that RLC stands for Rembrandt Lamp Co. I am finding some better marked Rembrandt lamps with that same devil's head...
The main one you show, may well be Rembrandt. Shade is not original. The lamps in the backgrond are called bridge lamps. None are Victorian....
Good find this week. Big piece from the 30s. Was at the Goodwill downstate that I only hit once a month or so. Was priced high at $60.00 (by...
Possibly Ozark Skag Pottery.
I also think earlier and always a lamp. Maybe circa 1925. Looks a lot like the work of Goberg, though I am not sure they did floor lamps. If...
Perhaps the note on the base was put by a previous owner/seller, along with a price tag of $325.00. The current seller is not buying the...
Does show off the clock better but, with that other table off to the left, makes it awkward. Also, the other chair no longer has a place. This...
Agree with a circa 1900 date (Leaning toward early 20th century). Not American. Could be either English or Continental. Mix of styles. Sort...
Think probably Mexican. Lots of similar work coming from there in the past 30 years.
I would put it between 2 pieces of 1/4" acid free foam-core board and tape the edges. I store several of my most valuable prints this way. Keeps...
I really need to apologize for this initial assessment. I was looking on my phone and really know better not to look at tiny pictures and make...
I think Ghopper is spot-on with his assessment that it is a converted wardrobe. Evidence is seen in the photos of the back side of the doors. I...
Certainly look 70s to my eye. Probably part of a set with table. Not entirely sure why these clunky rolling chairs were popular ...... probably...
