I am interested in any information and appraisal for painting and frame. The frame has been damaged in a move and I would like to either restore it or replace. The painting is oil and canvas depicting a vase of flowers (red and gold tulips purple lilacs, and white ?lilacs) in a blue and white vase sitting on a table, blue tablecloth w/brown fringed border. There is a small white and blue bowl and red tulip blossom also sitting on tablecloth. The signature looks to be all in caps and appears to be ANIEMAN. or ANIEMAM. The background color is a tannish brown color. The frame is 4 1/2 inch thick, raised, ornate frame showing some floral and scrolling pattern. The color is brown with gold/bronze. Many pieces of the plaster? on the raised part of the frame have been broken off.
This small table opens up and has a small tray inside. I listed on craigslist.com and people went crazy - so now I am not sure about the value. It is in fair-good condition. Someone has told me that it may be tigerwood. Another person referred to it as a cellarette. Not sure! Can anyone help estimate a value? Or tell me what I have?
