Age / Value of a Chair

Category
American Furniture
Description

1st I have to say I really don't know much about furniture ..

So I found this chair ..

I liked the style .. then noticed the nail heads (which seemed old) and the price was right. : )

When I got it home I pulled the staples and fabric (pillow case) off the bottom (which I know someone added) .. to my surprise I found springs. + the wood I guess may be mahogany and the saw marks - I assume are from hand saws ..

Hoping someone here can help me out.

THANKS!!

Japanese Imari Decorative Bowl

Category
Ceramics and Porcelains
Condition
Excellent
Description

This is a Japanese Imari style bowl that appears older than many we have seen locally. It has multiple base rings that we do not regularly see. It has flowers, trees, what appears to be fruit, scroll motifs and other design elements. We do not know what the inscription in the center states. it seems to be blue underglaze with iron red, orange, green and pale peach overglaze. The colors are very bright. There is no maker mark. The outer sides feature a very nice floral and leaf motif and there may be some inscription in the marks on the underside. It weighs 2 lb. 2 oz., measures 9-7/8 inches in diameter and is 2-1/2 inches tall. We would certainly appreciate any thoughts as to where made, maker, age/era, description of medium, value etc. Thank you for any feedback you can share.

Un-Kilned Old Indian Terracotta Vase

Category
Pottery
Condition
Good
Description

Reddish terracotta vase. Definitely handmade because of its ruggedness outside and inside. It's a buried find when clearing an ancient overgrown lot.

Needs professional cleaning due to being buried for unknown years. Has a couple small nics around top and plenty patina due to being in its outdoor environment for many years.

All information about this vase is appreciated.

13.5" tall
34" circumference at widest area
6.25" circumference top
5.5" base circumference
