Recently won a bid on item shown on photo. I'd appreciate it if anyone can tell me which period/era this was made. I have been trying to find out about the mark on the internet but nothing like the one on its base. Thanks in advance!
This table is solid mahogany with beautiful wood grain. It was painted black to update it for home staging. There are a couple of irregularities on the bottom of the base and table top edges, but the table top and sides of the base are in excellent condition.
We would love to know more about this chair. It's been in my wife's family for quite a number of years. It appears to be in good condition but we can't find any distinguishing marks. The seat seems to be original leather, which is quite worn. Would also like to know approximate value (insurance purposes).
This is a teapot and matching serving dish that I purchased at an estate auction approx 2 years ago. I think it is porcelain or pottery, but I really don't know anything about it, I just bought it because it was pretty and looks very old.
The stamp on the bottom says "Columbia" Ye Olde Hall Potterie Staffordshire, England. I have posted a pic of the stamp, but the date is not very clear, it says: Este 1790.
The set is green and gold. The green looks to be printed under the glaze and the gold is on top of the glaze. It is in excellent shape, no chips, but it looks like it was used b/c the gold is worn off of the handles of the teapot and lid.
I can't find anything online. I would love to know how old it is and what it might be worth.
I'm a history buff and would appreciate any info you have about the piece or the potter.
Thanks!
P.S. Will post more pics if you tell me what to focus on!
