Grandfather bought this sculpture in Italy back in 1974 paid $400 for it not sure on the year of it and not sure how to tell if its a reproduction or a real one done by A.Santini. It has a signature of a.santini on the back right in the middle. I looked at other ones they say it has a wood base this base looks like marble. Would just like to see if i can get more information on this if it is a real santini and how much it could be worth

I have a large trunk with a metal tag on the end that says Mendel Tourist-The Case For Every Travel Need.

It is black and not am not sure what the material it is. All can I say I took to it Mexico as my luggage and it was ungodly heavy.

It has a black metal border with brass rivets as decoration. It has 3 brass closures one with a latch and a lock. (I don't have the key).

It is a wardrobe trunk. It is 28.5" along the top and the sides are 19".

Leather handles as a exposed metal stripped and it is monogrammed in gold letter "B.L.H.".

Inside, the lid is 4" deep. It has a drawer with two sections that hook into the lid. They have fabric straps that tie to keep items in. The top compartment is 18" across and 12" long. The bottom is 18" across and 9" inches long. There is a silver handle on the top of the drawer.

The part I found most interesting was the hanging department. There are metal arms on each end of the department that open out so you hang the hangers, close it while traveling and then leave open while in your room. I have 4 wooden hangers.

Glass globed lamp. Painting is on the inside of the globe. Globe and paint on it is flawless. Base has slight wear but is in excellent condition.

I don't have a picture, but it's in excellent condition. It was completely refurbished. It has three holes for time adjustment and so forth. The chimes are beautifully crisp and somewhat loud. It has an adjustable pendulum and key.

This item looks like it might be some kind of thin horn or very thick leather. It has wood plugs at either end; very small nail heads are visible around the horn holding the wood in place. There are 2 holes on the concave side of the horn; one is about 5/8" across, and the other is about 1/16". There is a small nail on each wood end with a remmant of leather? still under it. The item is hand carved. Still readable is A. H. 177. There are 4 circles with curved lines like pieces cut for pie. There are other letters, but the deterioration of the item makes them unreadable. There are other "decorative" carvings including an S scroll on each side of the larger hole.
Does anyone hava an idea what this might be?
Thanks for the help. K

what is plate value & the blue inscription?
