Antique Chinese Glass top Nesting Tables 4

Category
Other
Condition
Good
Description

Carved oriental wooden nesting tables. Intricate carved tops ( a lighter wood or possibly ivory??) under glass depict a story, each one a closer view. Legs, sides ans fronts are a darker wood with a reddish hue- all carved with smallest table having a tiny drawer. These tables are in good condition with  a crack to the largest table through the top and another to one corner. I note a repair to the quarter round trim that surrounds the glass on one table, well done, matches good. There are no manufacturers stamps on the bottoms. Item has been in my family since the 80's, I believe they were purchased at an estate sale in the Illinois/Wisconsin area. They are clean and well taken care of.

I have a 1916 Sugar Bowl with 12 spoons.  The actual bowl that holds the sugar is pink dimpled glass and it sits in an ornate footed silver holder with decorative handles.  There is also an ornate etched domed silver lid and 12 silver spoons hang all around the silver base, 6 on each side.  It was a gift to my mother who was born in 1916 and she gave it to my around 25 years ago.

Antique sled

Category
General Antiques and Collectibles
Condition
Fair
Description

I bought the sled from a nice lady who acquired it after her aunt had passed at the age of 95. It was found in her storage attic.

the sled itself is all wood (not sure what kind) with what I would call some sort of old laminate wooden seat. It is held on by finish nails displaying a rounded head on top. 

All of the fasteners used on this sled have been meticulously capped with sanded wooden dowels

it doesn't have any real distinguishing marks but on one side of one of the rails I can see a faint swath of blue.

it has iron glides in the bottom that are moderately rusted but still in great shape. They are held on by pan head screws made for a flat head screwdriver.

the sled itself is only a little loose despite its apparent age.

i bought it because I loved the construction and modest size of it.  I also was curious if it would be made more value able if it were refinished using the same methods used in it time or if it would be best to leave it alone.

any advice would be welcome. I am dying to learn more about it origins and value. Thanks!
