I found this painting while cleaning out an abadlned house. The name is Time to Soar by Larry K Martin. It is the 2nd in the 5 part collection. It does have a certificate of authenticity. It is 25/20, framed and in excellent condition.
My grandmother had an antique store in the 1950s and identified this glassware as being manufactured by Tiffin. Please let me know if this is correct and the name of the pattern. Your help will be greatly appreciated.
The sizes are:
7.5" x 3.5" (Qty = 11)
6.0"x 3.25" (Qty = 12)
5.75" x 4.0" (Qty = 9)
These are Chinese ginger jars left to me by grandmother who died in the 1980s. I believe they were collected individually rather than as a set. Each has a twin circle mark on the base. The larger jar has an additional mark that looks a little like bird footprints. Or it may just be a flaw. The lid of the large one was unfortunately cracked and roughly re-glued before it came to me. Otherwise they are in good condition.
If my mom is correct, these were a wedding g gift to her parents in 1920. I’d appreciate any information about value and materials. I know the metal isn’t silver- no tarnish in all these years!
This is a set of eight bowls and one larger serving bowl. Each has marking on bottom: "Handpainted Expressly for Bloomingdale's in Japan". All in excellent condition.
