Antique dresser

Category
American Furniture
Condition
Excellent
Description

I have a very old antique dresser that has been in my family for a few generations, and I just want to know what it's worth. Is in great condition and all the little wooden wheels are in in great working order. The handles are original and all are intact. I think it had a mirror that sat on top.

Long scarf with sterling sliver design

Category
Vintage Textiles and Clothing
Condition
Excellent
Description

This may be a scarf, table runner, wall hanging, or ???  It was purchased in Japan in the 1920's with the green price(?) tag on it.  The scarf is 100" long X 31.5" wide, made of fine soft off-white netting with small pieces of silver crimped into the netting to create the designs.  Any help identifying this item, it's use, and maybe even the value would be greatly appreciated.

Chest of Drawers

Category
Furniture
Description

Good Evening! I picked this piece up yesterday on craigslist. I bought it from an elderly lady that claimed it was her grandmothers and it was from England and over 200 years old. I had intentions of painting and reselling but after a little talking, I think I might hold off until I know what I have. Can you please take a look? Thanks and have a great day!

Ugly little guy

Category
General Antiques and Collectibles
Condition
Good
Description

The item is a 4" tall brass or bronze figurine of a man holding two scythes or scythe-like objects.  I believe it is made of brass, because it appears to have more of a gold tone instead of brown.  After researching the subject, I still cannot decide which it is.  The figurine is heavy and feels solid, but apparently only the outer surface is metal, the inside is filled with some sort of concrete type material, except it is jet black.  You can see and feel the concrete material because the bottom of the figurine is made up 80% of it.  There is a 3/16" wide metal lip around the edge of the bottom, with the rest being the concrete material.

The craftsmanship seems to be a bit awkward, one ear is larger than the other, his head is somewhat mishapen, etc.  It almost reminds me of something you would see a child make.   I am intrigued by it because I cannot find anywhere another figurine made in this style.  The big ears, being barefoot, etc., should be some kind of clues as to the origin and date, but I have found nothing resembling it so far.  It might just be a crude replica or something, but it came from an eccentric collection of vintage and antique items, and most everything else was either collectible, expensive, or both. 

The figurine came from a collector's estate sale, and the couple who collected it all were extremely well traveled, so it could have come from anywhere.

Hello,

My uncle found 9 different sculptures 20 feet deep in Piedras Niegras, Mexico. He sent me one of the pictures and was hoping I can get the history and potential value. I searched online but couldn't find anything just like them.

Can you please help?
