Circa 1875, renaissance revival. Looks to be walnut.
Likely Japanese and modern.
Think you did well for the money. Not antique. Anywhere from 30s-50s. Would not think the value anywhere near approaches that of the one by Baker.
Sale went great today. About 60 people in line this morning when we opened. The first 25 got let in to shop first. The rest were all in within...
Off to the sale this AM. Last minute pricing found a few surprises. A 40s dodge truck toy that was a dealer promo was $950.00 on Worthpoint. We...
In a snowstorm no less :wideyed:
Looks more like ash or, possibly, chestnut to me. Mid to late 19th century. European in origin seems likely.
If that is a J. B., possibly Jennings Brothers but I don't quite see their usual quality in this.
Absolutely circa 1900 oak. A bit more up-scale than some we see from that era.

Certainly still a great time to buy. Have seen a slight up-tick in interest in Roseville and Rookwood. Weller is still pretty much in the dumps,...
There is some truth to this but think the largest local draw is going to be the University of Illinois memorabilia. We have already had many...
We are going to start with 25 but think the place is large enough to handle more. It may depend on how many helpers we have.
This is one he did not do. It is also the only one with some artist information on it. I will try to get that information for you.
John was the artist for most of this. A few done by his contemporaries. All done in the 60s.
I am sure that I will have some opportunity to buy but have not seen anything I am crazy for. Hope to end up with a work of art when all is said...
Not sure who made the chair. Has a label of a company I had never heard of and can't remember now. Someone thought an Adrian Pearsall design but...
