Does appear to be mahogany from these pics. I agree with the 1900 date or just a bit earlier. This is late Victorian furniture but, being French,...
I am finding values under $200.00. For example the painting shown on askart with the woman holding a child sold for $140.00.
Of course it has lost any value as a saddle. At this point, it is a decorator item. I kind of see this stuff as passe' these days but maybe I am...
A lot about this says newer than 19th century. A closer look at hardware and construction details might confirm. Yours bears some similarity to...
:woot: LOL! I bet you have just been waiting to use that.
I am with AF on this one. Really doesn't matter who made it. Most of these companies are lost to history.
These are truly old cabinets. I would think 18th century or early 19th. The first could have original paint or an old re-paint but it is hard to...
Unfortunately, not a lot of value to this furniture even in top condition. Here in the Midwest, maybe $250.00 in a retail setting. A lot less...
Neither of these do much for me in style or execution. The first is typical 70s from Sears and the like. The second one, while more original,...
This is a circa 1850 American Empire chest. It is a little more restrained in execution than many and is probably a later example and / or a...
Gorgeous piece. I think circa 1920 and European or British in origin. Could have been used for a lot of different things. The basic set up is a...
Really, the proof is in the pudding. You need to spend a lot of time looking at such things to know. I can usually spot newer hardware off the...
Story about a search to find the background on thrift store photo-negatives....
Whether or not this had a mirror is probably dependent on height. If there have been no major modifications, you should be able to see how a...
Chest of drawers, bureau, dresser, they all fit. I generally use dresser for pieces with mirrors and chest of drawers for those without....
You all have pegged this. I would have said about 1880 or a bit earlier. Not a whole lot of style to go on with it so pinning it by style is a...
P. Davis, El Mercado (The market). Most likely American based on the name and style.
I also think it is a metate. I does look really small for floor use but larger ones are used on the floor. Here is an illustration of one being...
Agree. Stretcher and canvas are consistent with the 1967 date. I also clearly see an N
Quite a few on ebay. Not as valuable as one might think. You will have to decide yourself whether these sold examples are authentic or not....
