There are two stories about how this chair came into my family. The first one I heard is that it was given to my grandparents as a wedding gift in 1900. The second is that it belonged to my well to do uncle in Iowa, and given to an aunt in the 1940s, then my mother. My mother had it for as long as I can remember.

It looks like it was possibly reinforced at some point as on the underneath there is a section that was screwed into the seat. It is marked 493W. The 3 could possibly be an 8, but I'm pretty sure it's a 3. 3 of the feet have a round metal protective pad on the bottom, one is missing. The photos on my computer make it look lighter and brighter than it is, it's actually dark brown.

I don't know what it weighs, but I can move it around easily enough. It shows obvious signs of age, but seems sturdy.

I had always planned to keep it, but need to downsize. My nephew may want it, and I'd like to know what it is and its possible value before I decide what to do.

Thank you for any info anyone can provide.

This beautifull lamp is a work of art! Photos speak for themselves.

A woman sculpture made of wood and cloth hangs on a metal lamp post.
She is painted mainly in gold (shorts, hairs and hat) and brown (skin). Her lips and eyes are also very colourfull.
Both arms made in wood are "separated/hangs loose" from the main body and holds by her clothes.
Her clothes feel like silk and there are a few pearl beads (in the back, on the shoulders). Her hat has a pompom attached to it.
The lamp is made in metal and has some glass prism in it.

Wooden sculptured stick with a bulb head and a leather handheld strap. Strong and sturdy.

Bulb head 4 3/4" circumference
Length 19 3/4"

No identifying markings

I'm just curious if anyone recognizes this ukulele I thought it kind of looked like a Leonardo Nunes but the symbol at the top is a little different maybe a Nunes from a different year?

This “Esky” life size wooden head was presented to my dad in 1948 when he worked for Esquire magazine.

I'm curious as to the value of these two Morrocan Cuff Bracelets. These bracelets are hinged with locking pins. There are orange/reddish stones around the sides of each cuff with colorful decorative markings. The tops and bottoms fit on each bracelet. Each bracelet is in excellent condition. The cuff bracelets appear to be silver, although I cannot locate a marking.
