Condition
Good
Description

I believe it to be a terra cotta bust of some sort. never seen to be able to find any info for it so anything I can find is greatly appreciated. Stands about14 inches tall and about 11 inches wide at base. My guess would be mid to late 1800's.

Setee and Chair with a Face Carved into Wood

Category
Furniture
Condition
Fair
Description

These pieces were previously owned by my grandparents and possibly my great-grandparents, as well.  

I believe the setee may have been re-upholstered.  Each piece has a  face carved into the wood.  The bottom of the setee is pulled down and the springs are showing.  There is a thin piece of the wood chipped off of the back of the setee.  The left arm of the piece is coming loose from where is attaches to the back.  There are scuff marks in the wood on each piece.

The chair is in fair condition and the setee is in poor condition.

Thoenert Engraving on Paper

Category
Decorative Arts
Condition
Excellent
Description

Pictured is one of a set of four framed engravings by Medardus Thoenert, engraver from the late 18th to mid 19th century. They all have a denotation of "Kl. Ideen Mag." with a page number, along with the signature "Thoenert fc".  All appear to be of an architectural nature, indicating a retreat house and garden structures with memorial (?) structures.  I have been completely unable to uncover any information relating to these particular engravings, other than to identify the artist's signature as identical to that from several highly-valued engravings of (then) historical figures.  Any input would be appreciated.

Looking to Sell Dining Room Set

Category
American Furniture
Condition
Fair
Description

I'm looking to sell a dining room set. It is old and I picked ot up in a second hand store in RI about 16 Years ago. It consists of a pedastal table (sans extra leaf) a breakfront with a mirror and 5 chairs one of which is what I think is reffered to as a "Captains Chair" the chairs have stickers on the bottom that say "John A. Dunn Company -- Chairs and Rattan Products Established 1839 Incorporated 1902 39 Chapel ST. Newton MASS."  the stickers are round and green and white in color.  There is a space for a number "No." but the numbers are all faded. I didn't find any stickers on the tabel nor break-front, but the wood and color of the the chairs are exact matches which makes me think that it was all origionaly sold as a set.  I'm not an expert on woods but I was told by a carpenter that it is Russian Oak (if there is such a thing).  The seats are upholstered in black leather which is kind of dry.  The chairs are kind of shaky and one has some damage to the back.  

I would like to sell the set because I'm not an antique collector and I think I should sell it before my kids destroy it and it has no value at all.
