this is Berkey & Gay furniture piece that was given to me and I'd like to find out a little more about it. There is a goal seal on the right inside of the top drawer. Also the stamp 2771 on the back of the center silverware drawer. Lovely details on the legs
This is a full bedroom set consisting of a dresser, chest, mirror above the dresser, 2 nightstands, stand alone table, small mirror and headboard. All are Berkey and Gay and have the Berkey and Gay label in the drawers. They are in good condition and have the original handles (Of note some of the pictures show some greyish marks on the furniture, these are artifacts of the picture and scanning and not on the furniture). All are in the Art Deco style. Due to the space limitations on this site, I am only able to provide pictures of the dresser, chest, night stand and mirror, however the remaining pieces are similar and from the same set. I am interested in help with appraising the value of this set. Thank you.
This furniture was given to me from Mr. Granmother. She was an Antique dealer many years ago and this living room set was bought approx. 30 years ago from an estate sale.
Back then is was professionally reupholstered and it is actually still in OK condition. If I sell this furniture I am sure that someone else may want to redo the upholstery to suit them.
The sof is 6 ft. long and there are (2) chairs. (1) chair has a rounded lower back ans measaures approx. 2ft 10 inches across. (1) chair has a high back and a loose leg that needs to be repaired. Besides this problem the set is in good condition. Here are some pictures and I am anxious to know more about this living room set. If I could get a fair price I would be interested in selling the item. Thank you. Theresa -
This is a very unusual lamp. It is a ceramic Monkey sitting on a tree stump. He is wearing white and red striped pants with a lime green and red jacket. His arms are gray and he is holding a big bunch of yellow and lime green bananas on his head. The face is not furry but human-like. The lamp fixture is attached to the top of his head and it has two bulbs (horizontal) I think the lamp part is probably brass or brass plated. He is approx. 30" from base to top and has no shade. The cord is old but it works perfectly. He is the most unique lamp I've ever seen!
