$200 USDCut Glass Victorian Style Centerpiece Bowl with Cherubs/Prisms
Collectibles:Decorative
This beautiful centerpiece bowl came to me really messed up. Someone had put water in the bowl and it leaked on the metal cherubs and base and caused corrosion. The metal is silver colored but not sterling or pewter. It has been painted an antique gold which is very attractive on this piece. The cut glass bowl is in good condition but has 2 flakes off the rim area(see photo). There are 24 crystal drops/prisms around the outside edge of the bowl. This would be very pretty on a dining room table ...

Collectibles:Lamps, Lighting
This large Victorian looking lamp stands 33" tall with the shade. The base of the lamp is ornate brass. There is beading around the rim & 4 raised areas. Two contain mythological faces and two contain fruits/nuts. The body of the lamp is wonderful! It contains wild rose floral scenes and a block fence with a wrought iron top. The leaves and flowers have gold gilt thru out. The texture is tapestry like due to the way it was painted. The rich colors of greens, pinks, yellows, & teal are fabulous. ...
$155 USDOld Hand Carved Wooden Elephant with Ivory Accents
Collectibles
This wooden elephant measures approx 8" in length & 6" in height. It is finely carved and has wonderful detail. I believe the tusks, eyes, and toenails are ivory but I am not 100% sure. It is in good condition. This item came from an estate of an elderly Greek gentleman who traveled extensively.
$895 USDPair of Elegant Cut Glass & Brass Candelabras with Three Arms
Collectibles:Lamps, Lighting
This gorgeous pair came from a local estate sale and was used with the Waterford Crystal Alana pattern. I could not find ay marking to identify the maker but the design and color resembles Waterford. They stand 15 5/8" tall and 12" wide. The prisms are exquisite and in good condition. While cleaning the pair I found a couple of chips on one of the bobeches and on the ribbed edge of the candle holder. I do not know the age but this pair is the most beautiful I have had the pleasure to sell.

$3,300 USDVintage Victorian Rococo Style Sofa
Collectibles:Furniture
This beautiful vintage Rococo style sofa belonged to the same family for 80 years. I acquired it in 2006 and had it repaired and restored. The back top rail had cracked when a heavy guest sat down too hard. The restorer identified the wood as South American Tulip tree. The fabric is a very soft, subtle gold color. The back is tufted. The skirt pediment has a shell like design and the top crest rail has carved flowers, leaves, and a swirl design in the center. The sofa measures 84" long, back is ...
$225 USDWall Mounted Electrified Oil Lamp with Ruby Hobnail Shade
Collectibles:Lamps, Lighting
I found this wonderful old oil lamp at a local estate sale and even got to take if off the wall. The paint on the metal (cast iron?) was chipped badly so I repainted it. The fenton shade still has the sticker on it and sells for $175 by itself. It is a ruby hobnail shade and is in excellent condition. There was no chimney with this lamp but it would look better to add one. It has been electrified and works well. The maximum distance from the wall is 13". It fits into a wall bracket which allows ...
$1,200 USDVictorian Style Brass Hanging Oil Lamp with Prisms
Collectibles:Lamps, Lighting
This beautiful hanging oil lamp was a find from a local estate sale. It was found in the attic completely disassembled. I asked for help in putting it together and was pleasantly surprised that it was complete except for the chimney and the prisms. This fixture is not electrified but could be. It has a pulley in the top part that works great. Pull it down to the level you wish and when finished you push it back up. Overall height is approx 31 to 32 inches. Diameter of the shade is approx 15". ...

$375 USD34 Pc Set of Coalport China Memories
Collectibles:Coalport China In Memories Pattern
This beautiful old set of china came from a local doctor's estate. I know the pattern has been discontinued and the pattern is hard to find. I will consider breaking it up if the demand for the whole set isn't there. These beautiful pieces have a gold floral design with turquoise leaves, and a scalloped edge with gold trim. The set is in good condition but has some scratching inside the plates. There are 7 dinner plates which measure 10 5/8", and 8 salad plates which measure 8", and 8 bread and ...
