Hello, I am not necessarily concerned with the value of this print I found today at a thrift store- what is driving me crazy is that even though there are hundreds of images for Edmund Henry Osthaus paintings, I cannot find that this one exists. It certainly looks like his work, but I find it odd that I can't find the name or any image of it anywhere.
The painting/print I picked up is clearly old, but it kind of feels like it was something that could have been mass produced. There is a stamp on the back of it, but it's wasn't even stamped properly it appears.
I truly know nothing about art- I am a volunteer for Shetland Sheepdog and Collie rescues and so I am always on the lookout for dog art or collie/sheltie pieces. This artist also does a lot of collie art, so I had to have it. Now I'm just incredibly curious as to why I can't find the name of it or anything when I search multiple search engines and image searches. I would love if anyone can identify this for me and if you can tell if this is just a complete fake, or whatever you might be able to find.
Thanks!
1920's or 1930's dresser with flip up top. Make-up vanity with flip up top and mirror. Appears to be made of walnut and maple burl was given to me from a friend. Also has castors
I have an antique coat tree. It is made out of cast iron, painted black with a copper color undercoat. It is approx 68 inches tall. My mother bought this in an antique store 50 years ago. Wanted to see if anyone knows it’s approximate value and age and history of this item. Thank you.
Very old pendant made between 1850 and 1900 showing a Roman/Greek woman painting. The woman is made from ivory (I think) and the background is an orange wax that glows and is transparent in the sunlight.

1st I have to say I really don't know much about furniture ..
So I found this chair ..
I liked the style .. then noticed the nail heads (which seemed old) and the price was right. : )
When I got it home I pulled the staples and fabric (pillow case) off the bottom (which I know someone added) .. to my surprise I found springs. + the wood I guess may be mahogany and the saw marks - I assume are from hand saws ..
This is a Japanese Imari style bowl that appears older than many we have seen locally. It has multiple base rings that we do not regularly see. It has flowers, trees, what appears to be fruit, scroll motifs and other design elements. We do not know what the inscription in the center states. it seems to be blue underglaze with iron red, orange, green and pale peach overglaze. The colors are very bright. There is no maker mark. The outer sides feature a very nice floral and leaf motif and there may be some inscription in the marks on the underside. It weighs 2 lb. 2 oz., measures 9-7/8 inches in diameter and is 2-1/2 inches tall. We would certainly appreciate any thoughts as to where made, maker, age/era, description of medium, value etc. Thank you for any feedback you can share.
