Interesting, Tim has looked into this extensively. Did you say you appraised Kiko arm chair? What was the secondary wood & seat frame? Yellow pine?
Yes, it would be closer to what it really is. Notice the trefoil cut into chair back, a traditional Christian symbol during the Gothic period....
16th century as well but yes, a very old form and we do not know exactly what the deal is with those "turner" chairs. Why make such an unstable...
HILARIOUS! The old women are falling off their stumps like flies this morning!:hilarious::p
Very similar form it looks like to me. Clearly, 20th-century made piece. I think OP piece, the emblem wants to be a Tudor rose but could be...
???? Have you fallen off a stump over there? :hilarious: What area or era? A Tudor rose is the traditional floral heraldic emblem of England....
Another oddity? the chest sides on OP chest are solid wood and not panel construction which would be typical of 1900 Eastlake, similar to Harp...
OMG! the old woman has fallen off her stump & knocked herself out!:hilarious:
Well, even odder unless chest was not imported and made out west somewhere. If imported from the mid-west furniture factories, the dovetails would...
No, I don't see any staples, just the drawer dovetails, click it to enlarge.
It's a miracle? BAM! :eek::p Was tagging you because this little chest was purchased in a Texas thrift. I am guessing it wasn't made in Tex. and...
Yes! I tagged you in this thread YESTERDAY! You must have been napping on your stump & missed it!...
Well, where is Tim, you girls ran him off with your cat posts??!!!:eek::p A couple of points, I notice Kindig mentions Easton and Tim AA county,...
Agrees, thinks it is probably a decorator type piece, modern. It's quartered oak with machine carving, a Tudor rose on flanking panels, it is nice...
Very good photographs! I see the cat had to horn in on the process!:p
That was nice of Joe to remember all that and reply, I remember it now, buried somewhere in this thread!
Yes, perfect opportunity to start a new thread without all the clutter. AA county is in the Chesapeake region I think, kinda sorta remember it...
Well, I see you got off your stump finally! but didn't comment on a different thread where you were summoned to comment on a Tex. piece.:p
Does @Tim Naylor own the chair attributed to Belt, perhaps start a new thread? with new photos as this thread has wandered all over the place,...
Compared photographs, they are similar but impossible to evaluate if made by the same maker, pics are limited that way. Plus, I have no clue who...
