I have only the female of what appears to have been originally made as a pair. The only other one I have been able to find like it ANYWHERE on the net is one of a pair I found on Ebay priced at $1,200 for the pair http://www.ebay.com/itm/20th-century-vtg-DECO-BLACKAMOOR-figural-table-lamps-original-red-shades-/320900655665. The obvious difference is that mine has only minimal traces of paint. It doesn't appear that the paint has worn away, rather that it had never been painted fully to begin with. It does have signs of age that you would expect to see, but no chips or cracks whatsoever.
I beleive that this is a 19th century dresser possibly built between 1830 and 1860. As you can see from one of the pics the dovetail joints are different so i'me assuming they were hand cut. the only worn area is in front of the small drawers on top which would have to be redone as the staining is worn off. I found a few pics of dressers similar to this one but not with the same trim pieces or molding on the bottom or the accents around the key holes
I have a spindled high back armless chair. I have looked online for something similar but to no avail. I am hoping that someone might be able to tell me what style it is. There are no markings on it as to who the maker might be. The top of the chair (or what I would call the "head rest") has what I would consider "rolled" edges. The legs are flared at the bottom, claw shape but without the claw detail. I am 50 years old and I know it is older than me. I have posted a pic. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
