Vintage painted tapestry

Category
Folk Art
Condition
Excellent
Description

 

This piece of art has been in my family for generations (approx. 100 years). It looks to be painted on some sort of fabric (possibly a tapestry) with an embroidered frame. The painting is of two children (a girl in a red and white dress with a bonnet and a boy with blue pants, a white shirt and red suspenders) sharing what looks to be a pickle in front of a well. We believe it is in its original frame, though no signature is visible. I'm curious to see if anyone can help identify the piece.

antique candle holder

Category
General Antiques and Collectibles
Condition
Excellent
Description

I found this candleholder at a garage sale in McMinnville, Oregon a few days ago. It looks handmade, with lots of work in the metal. It is made of steel or iron, and is very sturdy and heavy. Probably about 4 lbs. The number 7003 is stamped on the bottom. The finish/patina is unusual, it almost looks like it is painted, but if it were paint you would expect to see places where the paint is chipped or flaked off but I don't see that. It looks like it may be brass or copper plated - the blue/green color looks like oxidized copper. The candle stick spike is one of the few places where the finish is not bluish, it is more brass colored there, with a few steel spots showing through. The edges of the legs show the brass color as well. There are still remnants of wax around the candle spike. 

Can anyone tell me what they think about it - like age, origin, value, or anything else of interest?
