The bench is in near flawless condition. There looks to be some paint rub marks on the ends of the arms, but that is very much the extent of any damage. The caning is in mint condition and very tight. The legs and arms have a bit of a flare to the outside. It is light but very sturdy. There is not a nail or a screw on the entire bench (wooden pegs are visible) and all the caning is woven through holes, with no apparent bracing beyond that. (I have to apologize, I have never been educated on antiques and am trying my best to be descriptive). It does not shake or wobble.
I really don't know much about this item, only that it was at my grandmothers home for at least 50 years. The tag on the bottom says it was made by Pelham, Shell, Leckie.
This is a ceramic mug with a 3d mickey on it. He has yellow shirt, blue suspenders & Jeans on. He has an old style Mickey face. This was bought YEARS ago by my grandfather in Japan. Says walt disney production Japan on the bottom. We all are guessing this is anywhere from 1940's to 60's, but we're not sure as they are not around anymore. Any guesses please? I was thinking of selling this, but have no idea as to it's worth. Plz excuse the pic, as it does need wiped off.
