Whittal Anglo-Persian Rug

Category
Rugs and Carpets
Condition
Excellent
Description

From a local estate, this is an antique Whittall "Bird of Paradise" Anglo-Persian Wilton Rug! This is a large 9' x 12' wool rug of high quality and was made in the first part of the 20th century by M.J. Whittall and Associates. This "Art Nouveau/Art Deco" design is the very popular and highly sought after "Bird of Paradise" pattern, which features flowing water motifs throughout the background of the field and willow style bonsai trees within the main border. This rug is in excellent original condition, colors are bright and design is sharp. The rug has a high even pile. This rug is 9 by 12 feet as stated on the partial label on the rug back. The label has the number 224337 on it also. This matches the mark on the opposite corner of the rug back which states 224337 and 8/18 beneath that. This rug is really magnificent with vibrant colors.  I just would like to find out what the value of this rug really is, can someone help?

Dresser with Mirror

Category
American Furniture
Condition
Fair
Description

found this dresser and mirror at an estate sale last summer. it is an incredibly heavy piece of furniture, the beveled glass mirror itself weighs over fifty pounds. some edges are a litttle banged up and there is a paint spot on the dresser top that I was afraid to try and remove for fear of ruining the beautiful finish of the wood. dresser features turned wooden knobs and functional brass keyholes.

Looking to see if this table is worth money or if it can be refinished for future generations to use. I dont want to refinish it if it holds value in its old look.

Antique Hand Painted Chandelier

Category
Lamps and Chandeliers
Condition
Excellent
Description

This chandelier looks as if it was originally a gas lamp that was converted later for electricity.  Hand painted with crystals hanging around the bottom.  That's all I know about it.....it was already in the house when I bought it a few months ago.

Elephant figurine with rider

Category
Ceramics and Porcelains
Condition
Excellent
Description

I need some help dating this piece and identifying what it is and who made it.  I would alos like to get an approximate value.  IT has been in my family as long as I can remember and I inherited it when my mother passed away.  I believe this piece belonged to my grandmother.  This appears to be an asian (maybe priest) rider on an elephant.  The figure is side sitting and holding an orb in his hand.  The rider's clothing is very elaborate as well as the saddle/decorations on the elephant.  This figurine appears handpainted with very intricate details.  The elephant stands on a separate wooden stand with carvings.  The only markings I can find on the piece are some encircled chinese characters painted below the elephants right ear.
