I take it you know it isn't period, but a more recent 20th century adaptation of earlier forms. More French than Chippendale to me, though it has...
The base is William and Mary style, but the top not so much. I think the inspiration was a chair like the following. Yours looks like a newer...
Can we see the back and underneath with the feet and one of the sides?? Are the corners dovetailed? The top and bottom look like two butted pieces...
And better pics with closeups. Can't tell age from a blurry distance shot, sometimes hard even with good pics. Open a cab door top and bottom and...
I agree that this is definitely mid 20th century or later, but it isn't really a fantasy mark since it looks correctly marked for a 20th century...
If you can't find any marks, see if you can find the same bent steel shelf hangers. If not, bear in mind that this could have custom made by a...
It looks right. These Connecticut shelf clocks all opened from the front like this. You can research when made from the label - address and other...
Eastlake yes, and those dovetails (pin and cove, yes) are usually pinpointed to 1880's. I guess it could be a secretary, though I've never seen...
I don’t disagree, as I said late 19th to early 20th depending on the dovetails (which we haven’t seen yet). I put it past Late Classical, and more...
Agree, need measurements. Could be an inkwell if not the size for a candle.
You didn’t give the size which is important, also try to take better pics on white background. Pics of the writing may get help from some of the...
Somewhere around end of 19th and early in 20th century. Drawer construction was changing a lot in this time so if you take a pic of the side of a...
Not to be a downer, but the skinner price is from 2004, and prices have come down a lot since then. What did you use to remove paint, how long,...
I agree with everyone else your instincts were right. Awesome job on paint stripping. Any advice on how you stripped it, what materials, and how...
Which is why it’s important to show a pic of the inside.
If we’re guessing, I’ll guess India and not older than mid 20th century due to paint motifs and overall low quality workmanship. (Not to suggest...
I don’t know what it sold for, but I assume it wasn’t very much. Which shows the difficulty of thinking the things we value as heirlooms will...
It looks from here like the signature was done with a sharpie (permanent marker), in which case clearly not her. Does it look like that up close?
Probably not him. Quality of his work is higher; he signs his work "R.Idubor"; and he is modern artist working in 21st century. Doesn't hurt to...
It says the owners of the estate being auctioned used to own a house that was designed by Wright. Those owners furnished the FLW house in the...
