Last pictures helps a bit. Footboard looks like a typical 40s waterfall bed. Does the headboard have this same treatment with the curved top and...
First is a nice art deco era piece circa 1930. Could be French but wouldn't rule out elsewhere. There were some more modern pieces emulating...
If unknown silver content, probably none of it at that price. If sold as guaranteed sterling, it would be well worth the money.
Thanks for the reply. Your strategy makes sense based on the sellers assumption that everything was plate and that some sales had already occured...
So..... there was nothing else that looked intriguing to you in the other photos that did not pan out? Did you get to see the lot in person or...
Depends on the price. Seems to be a better quality lamp than most of this type (without the counter-weight). New paint job devalues it a bit. I...

Don't see a 2 tier but looks like Mikasa, Stratton.

The use of the CHINA stamp in capital block letters (often seen on brass works as well) is pretty well documented up until 1950 when most trade...
Have not been seeing much. The divan shown above has been reduced to $50.00 for the past week or so and is still sitting :(. I did spy this...
China cabinet and buffet here in the US. Your desk exhibits elements of Chippendale style, though quite watered down. The other two pieces are...
Desk is circa 1940. Unfortunately, not a lot of value. I posted a similar one at a thrift store for sale at $8.00 here (scroll down). Thrift...
Thanks for the Tudric pics! Nice find. As might be expected, rarely find any good A&C/Nouveau British metalwork here in the wild. There was...
More correctly, pillar and scroll, or late classical. Circa 1850. Often gets lumped in with Empire in common usage here in the US. Don't see...
Another vote for modern/Chinese. See this enameled metal on a lot of recent items.
Nice box. May well be OOAK. Agree with Art Deco designation.
Wanna see! :watching:
