  3. Hi Warren The estimate I provided is based on actual past auction sale records. What you are coming across are asking prices, and any person can ask any price they please on any item they own. The k...

  13. This is a folding gout rocker. https://thefurniturerecord.wordpress.com/2014/01/07/behold-the-lowly-gout-rocker/
  14. If you can capture very clear, in-focus close-up images of the hallmarks, it will narrow down country of origin and dates. My opinion is that the center plaque image is a replacement and is not as ol...
  15. The appear to be molded and not cut glass. A view of them without the lid and the undersides will tell the story
  16. Vintage mid 20th century French Louis Revival style

  19. These are 2nd quarter 20th century Japanese porcelain export wares with a pseudo-Meissen mark.

  37. Hi There, Thanks for weighing in here. I came across this auction lot with green glass vase pair with similar lily flowers attributed to Harrach that was deaccessioned from a glass museum. http:/...
  38. Hi there~ I just posted a blue cobalt glass vase too, a few minutes after you. Wondering if mine is Harrach or Joesphinenhutte?
  39. Addendum - Rhead was born in 1880 - so definitely not by him.
