Jade Censer

Category
General Antiques and Collectibles
Condition
Excellent
Description

This piece is light green, very heavy and it looks as if it was hand carved.

The round ball at the top rotates. It is held in place with a hand carved jade type peg at the top and a metal type peg on the bottom. There are carved dragons and what looks like a womans blank face with blazing hair or a blazing sun 

 

The base has a 2 1/2" opening for the top to fit into. The opening is about 1 1/2" deep. The inside is not polished. It has a finely carved dragon head on bothe sides, two round rings and 3 feet with a bushy eyebrowed animal on each one

The condition is good, but there are a few chips on the bottom base.

If you tap the two pieces together it sounds almost like 2 drumsticks hitting each other.

It looks like there is a rough pontil on the bottom of the top piece in a rectangular shape and one on the base that looks like it was polished

Shaw Walker Cabinet

Category
American Furniture
Condition
Fair
Description

I found this SHAW WALKER Cabinet in my basement when i purchased my home. I am curious to know what it's worth and if I should have it restored to sell it or just sell as-is?

It's actually in pretty good condition, I just have to give it good cleaning.

Also, if you know what kind of wood it is, when it was made, what it was used for...I'd love that info too.

Antique pitcher

Category
Ceramics and Porcelains
Condition
Good
Description

 This pitcher was handed down from my great grandfather's family to me.  I am curious as to its origins and age.  His family descended from early immigrants from the Alsace region of Germany who came in the 1700s to America.
