The top being refinished is not what is making it odd. The moldings around the edge are not as one would expect a piece of this age to have....
Since no one has responded, I'll take a stab. Appears to be a legitimately old table. Wood is mahogany. I think a 19th century example, rather...
Something very odd about this piece. Wonder if it is a rather plain piece that has been embellished with salvaged carvings. The top appears all...
Looks like Cairoware but can't tell if it has any inlay from these pics. Either way, likely Egyptian origin.
I agree with this but the OP stated that they wanted to keep the original backing. Agree but, as you suggested, this is a a pretty difficult...
Are you keeping or selling? If selling, I would sell as-is and let the buyer decide what to do. If keeping, I would put an acid-free barier...
Think they are relatively new ..... last quarter of the 20th century.
My best guess is that it is a funnel. However, know of no precedence for one among Pueblo potters, nor do I find any with a quick search. Would...
Looks like I might be able to get my money back out of them. Here are 4 that sold for $ .99 ..... LOL! :woot: Antique 1835 R Wallace 14 DWT...
I think you are safe there. These probably date no later than the 30s. Could possibly be even older. Being in Canada, there is a good...
Not in favor for most people these days. If you like them and they are sturdy, why not go for them? You could not buy anything similar new for...
Yes, $30.00 per chair is near top dollar here. Shops will sometimes try for more but would be a very tough sell. Pairs Often sell for under...
Yes. 20th century, a mix of styles. Some Spanish influence. That would be near top dollar here in the Midwest. Probably not too bad for...
More surreal than abstract IMHO. I see a person (?) drowning/being eaten by a monster beneath the surface. I rather like it. Has a bit of a...
I realize this is silverplate, with the 16DWT referring to the pennyweight amount of silver used to plate a certain number of pieces (12?). Seems...
Not sure the table and chairs originally went together. Table is Duncan Phyfe style. Chairs are more European in style. Though very watered...
Ditto what everyone else said above. If you like it, its priceless. Otherwise, it is a tough sell most places. Have seen some people have some...
My thought as well. Otherwise, could be a gas fixture shade. [ATTACH]
As I said back on July 6th, definitely oak.
Those molding pieces are some kind of plantation mahogany. This almost looks like it is a homemade piece using ready-made components. Would not...
