Vintage trumpet in it's original case. Mother of pearl detail on the finger buttons. Engraved on the bell with the words "Bundy", then underneath "H. & A. Selmer, Inc , Elkhart Ind.". Model number is 32998 is on one of the valves. Also has some designs engraved around the writing. Well used! In original case, lined with red crushed velvet. Mouthpiece, marked "Selmer" included. Case has a metal plaque on the outside that says "Bundy". As I said before, this trumpet has been well used, and there are dents around the bell.
I recently received this couch from a friend who was moving. All I know is it was her great aunt's and she was the first owner. She had lived in the same place since the 1940's and this couch was covered when I received it, so I believe it was rarely sat in without the cover. I am wondering what period it is from, more details about the item, and what the current value range might be.
I received this bracelet over 10 years ago. I was told it was brought back from China where it was "dug out of the dirt". I had a local metalsmith look at it some time ago, who said that it appears to be Asian (judging by the color of turquoise and design) and pre-1900, made of copper, gold, and silver with the turquoise stones wrapped in silver at the top. It is not signed or marked in any way. I've been looking for an appraiser who specializes in antique Chinese jewelry, but can't seem to find one. Any information you can provide would be appreciated. Thanks!
Antique wooden side board, dove tail joints. Have the bottom piece, it needs to be tacked back on. I was told years ago that the top had been replaced.
