Me thinks this is a rare lithograph i found at a thrift store about 15 years ago for a dollar. I can only find a handful of likenesses on the internet.
The pictures are the best way to tell about the item. The top is oval shaped, there is some wear to the top coat on one of the sections of the top (you can see it in the photo shot from the right side). There are nicks and light damage on the legs and parts of the side.
Overall it is a great piece. I just have no idea the age, when it was made, etc. I've looked everywhere and see no markings of any kind.
Would just love any feedback or information about this item.
The vase has small handles with gold lines. The front has an oval painting of three maidens pulling a wooden cart with large wheels. In the wagon, there is a cherub holding a bow in his lifted hand. The oval shape has gold lining with small dots.
Antique sterling silver pie server that is about 12in in length and 8 oz in weight. it has scroll throughtout and on the lower back side there is a crown with ITALY beneneath it, and a shield with the initials WA beneath that.
No knowledge of this items history. Found in an abandonded building. Was considering refinishing, but don't want to ruin any value it may have as is. Chest itself is in excellent condition structurally, drawers all work and fit well. Very tight fit - all wood construction - even the drawer sides are oak. Only damage is cosmetic. Finish is cracked and there is what appears to be a cigarette burn on the top. Also, so small water marks and fading. Otherwise just scratches from use.
