I don't really have anything more to add. I am not an expert in such glass but have seen some examples. You are right in that the ancient...
I think the differences you are seeing are more likely indicators that it is a modern reproduction. The evenness of the rim on yours is...
This does have the appearance of an ancient bottle that has been buried for centuries but there are a lot of fakes out there. Pontil marks would...
Looks like the sampler says Margaret Robinson aged 127 ears ..... LOL! Has to be 12 years.
I think you are right in the hey-day for this type of furniture. Not too many American makers in it before 1905 and most were out by 1920.
That is a strange one. I would have to think some kind of arts and crafts period variation. There were hundreds (thousands?) of furniture makers...
Look up some of the MCM patterns that do well. They are about the only china I have had any consistent luck with. For Example, Salem North Star...
Is it bronze? With all the grind marks, I would think it has to be a reproduction.
Nice little pot but not one of the more sought after patterns.

Here is one of similar ilk but a bit more elaborate. [IMG]
The style is meant to be this way.... pretty minimalist. It does look a bit like tramp art but I think more likely just inspired by Aztec or...
Table appears to be Renaissance revival. Chairs seem more aesthetic period to me. I do see the similarity to the Chippendale bamboo chairs but...
I think it is correct and complete. Art deco circa 1930. Depending on size, it could be a shaving mirror.
I wouldn't dismiss this too easily. This apparently sold on ebay for about $1900.00. Sorry, no more info or more pics since I gleaned this off...
Actually looks like walnut and I doubt quite that old. Table may be as early as 1870 and chairs are likely more like 1890. Advice about selling...
I see Syort. Does seem to be a surname and means Short in Filipino.
....... so this is really another case of sensational journalism :( Sorry that I didn't dig a little further on this.
Some people really have no appreciation for art. $1.5 Million painting used as a bulletin board in kitchen....
Agree, 1900 or so golden oak Victorian period furniture. You are probably missing a back hutch/mirror.
