$450 USDLarge Beautifully Detailed Model Ship
Antiques:Accessories
Beautifully detailed ships model! Wonderful condition for its age. Only thing missing is a little of the blue stripe around the center of the ship. There is also a few little water stains on the 3 of the sails as seen in the photos. The little life boats swing, the ships wheel turns, and everything is so detailed. Note the 2 little sets of wooden stairs, and the all of the rigging, and the rope stairs going up each mast. It measures 25.5" long x 20.75" high, and it is about 4" deep.
$665 USDImpressive Royal Dux Parian Ware Dog

$495 USDIncredibly Cast Solid Bronze Bulldog Early 1900's
Fine Art:Bronze Sculpture:Bulldog
This bulldog is so finely and realistically modeled that you expect him to bark. The workmanship is of stellar quality. He measures 4" long x 2 1/2" high.
$1,200 USDBronze Pigeon on Tiered Marble Base
Fine Art:Bronze Sculpture
This little beauty was the first prize in a pigeon racing contest held in the 30's in Sweden. The dealer I purchased it from purchased it from the family of the winner of the contest. Good condition. Measures 10.5" wide x 10.5" high
$590 USDImpressive Painting of an Elk in a Magnificent Pressed Brass Frame
Fine Art:Paintings
Masterfully painted on a pottery plate, this was then set into the most beautiful pressed brass frame that I have ever seen. It is in very good condition. The only damage is a little bit of paint loss in the greenery beneath the elk which shows in one of the photos if you know where to look. You can barely see it because the pottery is a light brown so it blends right into the fauna. It is large, measuring 24" in total diameter. The pottery plate is approx. 12" in diameter
$195 USD Offers ConsideredBlack Lacquered Paper Mache Wall Letter Holder
Antiques:Accessories
This would look great hanging beside a desk. Its in great condition and measures 9 ½ wide x 12 high. I think that this one dates to around the turn of the century.
$695 USDBeautifully Hand Painted Chrysanthemum Porcelain Vase
Porcelain:Antique:Hand Painted
The colors on this piece are fantastic. It is artist signed, A. Nortrup and dated 1910. It is marked Vienna Austria on the bottom. It is in excellent condition! It measures 8.5" high x 9.5" wide
$395 USDBeautifully Carved Pine Fish Wall Hanging Late 19th Century
Antiques:Accessories:Carved Wood
this fellow has been skillfully carved from a single piece of pine. From the gently curving tail to the minutely carved scales and fins, there has been a very close attention to detail. He was then carefully veined and painted, as can be seen in the pictures. Wonderful condition and patina. He measures 19.5" long x 9" h x 1" thick.
$1,600 USDBeautiful French 19th Century Inlaid Basket Weave Ladies Writing Desk
Antiques:Furniture:French
The beautifully inlaid basket weave design is on all sides and the top of this desk. It still has the original leather insert on the writing top. Both the leather top and the whole desk is in beautiful condition. The clock has been electrified, so it no longer has the original clock mechanism. The clock face is original though. I believe that the green glass was probably added at a later time, probably around 1910 or 1920. It adds a beautiful touch to the piece. It measures 26 1/2" wide x 18 1/2 ...
$395 USDRare Ivory Tusk Late 19th Century Pocket Watch Holder
Antiques:Accessories:Pocket Watch Holder
This watch holder is a spectacular example of a victorian watch holder. It is made from a section of tusk with an ornately chased brass hook for the watch. Other than a small age crack at the very top as seen in the photo, it is in very good condition. It has a wonderful patina and size. I have never seen another like it. It is shown with a pocket watch with a 1 3/8" diameter, but will accommodate a larger watch. Size is 5" high x 3.5" deep x 2.75" wide.
$395 USDSmall Vienna Bronze Bear Unsigned
Fine Art:Bronze Sculpture
Well executed casting in bronze of a bear. Some of the original brown paint is still remaining. In very good condition. The artist captures the perfect likeness of a bear. He looks real. Measures 1 7/8" high x 3 1/2" long.
$345 USDSuperb Bronze Casting of a Pheasant
Fine Art:Sculptures:Bronze
Although unsigned, this is truly a finely crafted work with excellent detail. Great patina also, and it's in very good condition. It measures 8.5" from tail to beak, and 4" high.
$395 USDStriking World Globe on Wood Base with Compass
Antiques:Medical & Scientific
Large terrestrial globe in surprisingly fine condition with only minor surface loss. From looking at the countries, I believe that this is from around 1930. It lists Iran as Persia which changed in 1935, so it has to be prior to 1935. The globe is made of paper mache and the colors are still bright. The base is made of wood with a nice rich patina, and there is a little compass inset into it. There is just a tiny bit of age distress to the varnish on the wood, but considering its age, it is what ...
$545 USDStunning Tooled and Pressed Leather Artists Portfolio
Fine Art:Paintings
The workmanship on this is absolutely spectacular. All leather except for the original watered silk lining inside. The silver mounts are equally beautiful. I don't know if these are silver or silver plated. I haven't cleaned them and I don't see any marks. In surprisingly superb condition, I think that this must not have been used, but rather, tucked away in a trunk or drawer. I believe that it is from the early 1900's. I also believe that the gentleman on the front is Rembrandt, at least it ...
$345 USDSwedish Gustafsberg "Sobroun" Flow Blue 17" Platter ca 1850
Pottery:Antique:Flow Blue
Beautiful Deep Cobalt Blue Flow Blue Platter. It is in excellent condition without any chips,cracks, or discoloration. There is a very minor glaze loss about 1/4" sq as seen in the picture. It measures 17' x 14".
$2,295 USDLarge Pastel Still Life Painting
Fine Art:Paintings
This is an impressive painting. It would be the focal point of any room. I have posted a picture of it in place over a table. It is very large, measuring 45" x 34" including the lovely frame. I purchased this from a dealer in Denmark. He had put a new wood back on to add stability. It is signed "Hartvig 35".This could be 1835 or 1935. I believe it to be 1835. It still has the old rolled glass with the bubbles in it. The pictures do not do it justice because I couldn't get rid of the reflections ...
$995 USDSpectacular Silver Plated Putti Taza with Art Glass Bowl
Antiques:Accessories
Every element of this late 19th century piece is nothing short of spectacular. The base by itself is stunning, but then add the wonderful fluted art glass bowl, and WOW! I think that the bowl could be Loetz, but I'm not sure. This piece is in exceptional condition, with no nicks or chips to the bowl. Beautiful patina on the silver plate. It measures 14.5" high and the bowl is 8" wide.
$3,800 USDSuperb Oil Painting of Great Dane signed Carl Georg Arsenius
Fine Art:Paintings:Dog
This oil on canvas by listed Swedish artist Georg Arsenius is of unparalleled quality. He lived from 1855 to 1908.

$3,900 USDSpectacular 19th Century French Painted & Gilt Carved Console Table
Antiques:Furniture:French
With its original gilt and paint, this console is a show stopper. Beautiful marble top, but the marble has a crack which has been repaired. It is a good solid repair. See picture #9. The finish has a great patina with just enough worn through to give a great look. It has one small missing piece of scroll on the side which shows in picture #8. It is a nice large size measuring 48"w at the top and 22" d. It is 49 1/2" wide at the widest part of the legs. It is 38" high. It has a center drawer for ...
$345 USDLarge Spectacular Swedish Rorstrand Flow Blue Tureen Circa 1840
Porcelain:Antique:Flow Blue
An absolutely beautiful example of early Flow Blue. In prime condition without any chips, cracks, or repairs. There is only what appears to me to be a small firing crack on the inside of the bowl, it does not go through to the outside. See picture #9. It measures 12" across including the handles. It is approx. 9 1/2" high including the lid.
$5,600 USDLate 18th or early 19th century Danish Bornholm Tall Case Floor Clock
Antiques:Clocks, Timepieces
What a stunning piece of workmanship!! Bornholm is an island off the coast of Sweden where this type of clock was made. These unique clocks were individually made by the local farmers during the harsh winters when it was impossible to tend the land. In spring they would take them to town and sell them to raise money for seeds and other needs. Since they are all hand made, they vary in the intricacy of the work. This one is truly a piece of art!! It measures 83 ½ high, and 24 wide at the bottom ...
$345 USDExquisitely Detailed Silverplated Child Riding on a Turtle
Antiques:Accessories:Silverplate
This little boy riding on his turtle is much more detailed than the pictures show. I found it hard to photograph it without getting a glare off of the silver, and still show the detail. Complete with reins it is as sweet as it can be. I believe that it was originally mounted on top of something, acting like a finial. Perhaps on a dome or something similar. It appears to have been cut off, as can be seen in the photo of the bottom. It is in good condition with a nice patina. It is 5" high and it ...
$195 USDUnusual Hand Carved Pig Game
Antiques:Toys:Folk Art
This is as cute as it can be!! The object of the game is to get your pig up the ramp and into the trough at the center top. There are little strings attached to a spool system inside the pigs bellies. By pulling the string, the pigs back legs move forward, and catch on a slot higher up on the ramp. When you release the string, the pigs hind legs spring back into position, which propels the pig up the ramp. You can move the pig up the ramp by 1, 2, or 3 slots on the ramp, depending on how much ...
$1,395 USDFrench Beaded Crystal Chandelier with Amber Drop Prisms
Antiques:Lamps, Lighting:Chandelier:Bronze:Crystal
Beautiful and all original, with the faceted beads, and crystal drops and prisms. Wonderful working condition. Early 1900's. It measures 22" high x 13" wide
$1,850 USDImpressive French Iron with Gold Acanthus Leaf Chandelier
Antiques:Lamps, Lighting
Dating from the early 1900's this french chandelier is a beauty, with it's original paint. It has not been rewired, so it is sold with its wiring in "as is" condition, but it does work. It is large, with the chandelier itself measuring 35" from top to bottom and 26" wide. You can add another 28" for the chain length and lovely acanthus leaf canopy.
$365 USD Offers ConsideredGerman Porcelain Hunt Scene with Wild Boar and Dog
Porcelain:Antique
Beautifully modeled and painted. I cannot identify the mark, but I am quite certain that it is German. Probably very early 20th or late 19th century. It is in excellent condition. It measures 5" H x 7 1/4" w x 3 1/4" d.
$795 USDBeautiful Petite Chandelier with Porcelain Flowers
Antiques:Lamps, Lighting
This little beauty has a pair of matching wall sconces that are listed separately (item #2763T). Many times the porcelain flowers on these are chipped and broken, but this one is in wonderful condition. I took closeups of the flowers to show their condition. This came from the estate of a German lady who came to this country in the 40's. She added the small white cloth shades which are included. I believe that she must have added the small beveled scalloped mirror which rests against the top ...
$3,400 USD19th Century Swedish Painted Chest of Drawers with Harlequin Top
Antiques:Furniture:Swedish
Beautifully painted, this chest would be at home in any room. The size is easy to use in the living room, bedroom, bath or entryway. Very unusual with its harlequin painted top. The paint is not the original but it has a nice patina. It was probably done much later than when the chest was made. It is in very good condition. It measured 42 1/2" wide x 18 1/2" deep x 31" high.
