A very brief, 20 yr. old appraisal identified this as a hand carved, Italian neo-classic chair.  We have seen some identified as renaissance revival hall chairs as well.  There is damage under the upper left cherub, a split in the rear support, what appears to be a split in the seat and possibly to the lower left gargoyle.  Any information on its origin, type of wood, age, advice regarding restoration and idea of value/asking price would be greatly appreciated.

 

This china tea set was handed down to me.  It has a teapot, 6 cups, and a large plate. They have a gold in color border and a dragon with chinese writing on all pieces. I was unsure if this is worth anything, or simply a memory. Thanks.

My mother in law just  passed away and when we were cleaning out her closet there was a westing house sewing machine style 955901-e. We are wondering what year it is and if it is worth anything. It is in good condition and has all of the different foot peddles with it.

I have a L & L crystal and brass table lamp with shade

This print is marked La Mode Illustree and in smaller print above it: Gilquin fils imp Paris 4, the shadow box frame measures 15 1/2" X 12 1/2". I've seen similar pictures online but none like this one. I'm not sure if it's an original or reproduction. The frame has been repainted, the print is a little yellowed but the fabric is in perfect condition which makes me wonder how old it is.

Thanks - Terri  

I found this chair in a friends attic. It had been covered over in fabric and had been used in a childs room at one time then tossed up in the attic. It appears to be of hard  wood possible oak and has an embosed leather/horse hair stuffed  seat which at some point in time had a poor repair (leather patch tacked on to the original) done. It seems to have a striped fabric underneath (i assume its not original to the chair) holding the horse hair in. The seat itself is square in shape, wooden with a round hole where the padding(horse hair) is. I have not tried to remove either the top leather or bottom fabric to see what the whether its made that way or someone tried to pad the seat in a poor fashion. Any help would be greatly apreciated. I can get other info ie:dimensions, pictures or anything that might help in identifying the chair.
