Very informative video on the history of humans interaction with platinum. In general I think this guy does great work. This one I found...
Grabbed these at a sale a while ago for a song. I thought they might be pretty early at first glance. Potentially with orignal paint. Took them...
I had a working theory but now I don’t recall what it was. Central or S. America? Only about 6” x 4”. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
The de Kooning version: [MEDIA] and a follow up: [MEDIA] Looks like there’s more interesting content created about this story but these are good...
Not mine, only photos I have. Can’t make out the mark altogether but there’s a number we like. Almost looks like another mark in the bottom of the...
Anyone happen to be able to help me ID the carver? Not my piece but I like him. He’s got character.[ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I posted this six years ago but never posted a good photo of the mark. It looks like an imperial eagle in a shield? NAK above that. I’d lean...
Owner (not me) purchased this on the notion it was Native American made. It’s over 16” in diameter! The form with the small base flaring to a...
Has anyone seen anything like this one before? I’m guessing it’s African but I truly don’t know. Came in a collection of scoops. Maddeningly it’s...
I don’t believe I’ve shown this one yet. 14” across, around 8-9” high. If I had to guess I’d go with older African but I’ll reserve hope it might...
This came in an auction lot years ago. Nice form! I imagine it’s arts and crafts era and completely hand made. Signed AK. Anyone happen to know my...
Found a nice French gilt service. The mark is for Maillechort with a star above and horse bust below I believe. All in a lozenge. There is also a...
I can’t stomach paying melt or higher at todays price if I don’t have to. Wondering if anyone would be willing to trade for equal weight in...
Based solely on these photos do you see a Minerva indicating silver or possible plate marks? Not sure I see the correct shape around what looks...
Image search likes it for Ghana, a sankofa bird. This doesn’t give me a big urge to argue. I don’t see any others from Ghana with the neck...
Grabbed this nice little thing a few months ago. Something about the marks seems familiar, but try as I might I can’t pin down why or where...
Lovely photo of a well to do farm, likely in New England. I’d think it would be somewhere 1880’s-1910 or so. Hoping someone can help narrow it...
Wondering what the star is on the breast of these old chaps coats or uniforms? Two of the portraits are of a Prussian king. One purports to be...
Purchased two silver pieces today for around melt. Can’t say I liked paying that at the new silver prices. Was $14 per ozt when I started buying....
Well if you wanted good colors it had to be! Guessing not much dying goes on these days. Hopefully the art form stays living! A PBS look at...
