As a Producer for Collectors Weekly, I collect a little bit of everything, but my weakness is vintage menswear, and I've already got too many clothes for one closet As a Producer for Collectors Weekly, I collect a little bit of everything, but my weakness is vintage menswear, and I've already got too many clothes for one closet to hold. :) (Read more)

  1. Looks like it could be a Hunzinger Lollipop chair. Check out this article for more info: https://www.collectorsweekly.com/articles/furniture-of-the-future/
  2. Hey Ben, how's your friday? :)
  3. I believe it says Teodoro. If you google that name, you'll see a few other cats... :)
  4. Agree it appears to be a Rebus: I --- Pan ?
  5. What a great lot! The glass UFO reminds me of old glass reflectors used on roadways/signs - can't tell if they are quite similar or more finished like jewelry. ;) https://www.google.com/search?tbm=is...
  6. reminds me of a butter churning tool, how big is this? Did it have a jar or barrel with it?
  7. reminds me of ice block tongs, though clearly more complicated: https://www.google.com/search?q=antique+ice+block+tools&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjSz5izmpzaAhXIzFQKHW2MApgQ_AUICygC&biw=1744...
  8. Very cool. What does the note say?
  9. haha thank you Coopergirl! It is pretty fanciful :)
  10. thanks Elisabethan! :)
  11. Thanks for the comments y'all! I have looked around online and can't find anything wood that matches the backplate/conical knob style. There are some brass versions, but they're different sizes (and ...
  12. thanks Trey! I love it.
  13. Reminds me of the popular Takahashi birds, though I believe they were wooden (and the feet look a bit different): http://www.takahashibirds.com/ Your bird is not a brooch, correct?
  14. Love the one with the crescent-moon shaped opening!
  15. thanks Sean, you too! Hope you have a great new year's :)
  16. pps. Manikin I believe that was actually breakfast. ;)
  17. Thanks everyone for the well-wishes! SpiritBear—We definitely agree that people hate change, but this acquisition should offer us the chance to finally address many long-running concerns that we h...
  18. Beautiful detail work - what are the dimensions? Any markings inside or underneath, or interior details for usage? Looks like a travel kit of some sort...
  19. let's try this again
  20. Did you ever find out more about this piece?
  21. My first thought was of a small indoor fountain we had in my house as a kid—with copper "petals" that poured into one another and then into a larger bowl. Possibly this was just a water feature?
  22. Thanks quantumphysica! I'm pretty happy with how it turned out...and the carpet is from CB2 - very affordable vintage inspired designs. :)
  23. Great thoughts @quantumphysica—I was looking for an acrylic or white table, but they all seemed cheap or damaged. Then I found this expandable Danish modern one on craigslist (refurbished by the selle...
  24. Guess you'll have to fill it with tootsie rolls or some other fun treat. ;) great find!
  25. Thanks Cindyjune :) I ended up scooping three more up on craigslist so I could repair the ones with torn cane seats, so I should take a new pic now that the group of 6 is setup in my new home...
  26. could be a Hunzinger—look beneath the seat and arms/sides for a manufacturer's label
  27. I hear ya! Lots of design changes coming to CW in the next few weeks to make the site more mobile-phone friendly...if there's any issues, features you'd like improved, etc. feel free to send a note t...
  28. Fun poster! Visual Arts is now Fine Arts. :)
  29. Vetraio's leatherworking suggestion is interesting too. I guess they could be a piece of jewelry, but they look too specialized to me not to have a particular use...
  30. Fascinating. I don't have much info, other than the fact that their elegantly shaped points don't resemble locksmith tools / picks. The edges seem ornately shaped to create a delicate edge, like on mo...
  31. A little more here on Seuss and Flit: http://www.collectorsweekly.com/articles/when-the-wild-imagination-of-dr-seuss-fueled-big-oil/
  32. Also maybe the Ladies' Charitable Society? Louisville Charitable Society? lots of options. ;)
  33. Wonder if it was a Charitable Society (hence the helping hand image?) - like the Lincoln Charitable Society or something...just an idea!
  34. There's a little info on the Rootstein company in this CW article: http://www.collectorsweekly.com/articles/what-mannequins-say-about-us/ YOu might try reaching out to ChadMichael Morrisette, whose c...
  35. Hi PP: Would you be interested in doing an interview on your collection for CollectorsWeekly? If so, shoot me an email at hunter@collectorsweekly.com. :)
  36. Sure thing - glad y'all enjoyed it. :) Hand-painted signs are the best; I'm glad they're making a comeback.
  37. Love this stuff! Have you read the CW article about sign painting? http://www.collectorsweekly.com/articles/artisanal-advertising/
  38. Great chair groveland! With the patented duplex spring rocker, too. And thanks for reading. :)
  39. Mid century seems right to me. I believe the mark is for Reichenbach Porcelain, and here's a stock photo with the date marked as 1964: http://www.alamy.com/stock-photo-household-dishes-mocca-set-fatim...
  40. I've used a kintsugi kit on broken mugs and plates before, but I'm not sure I would use it on something so old (I'd be worried it would damage the clay and destroy its integrity/value). But for future...
  41. it looks like a shaving brush to me - is the "hair" part soft bristles or solid? http://www.collectorsweekly.com/accessories/shaving-mugs-and-brushes
  42. I think this might be a Hunzinger chair - see more here: http://hunzinger.blogspot.com/ You'll have to upload some clearer photos from all sides and underneath for us to get a good look at it.
  43. appears to be an easel.
  44. Thanks for the comment Thomas—I think some of my family also had them in the 1980s. Trying to figure out the best matching table that won't look too dated...
  45. thanks sean :)
  46. hahaha, that's great antiquerose! Do you remember this flower art circa 1995? -----<----@
  47. Thanks Sean! Happy V-Day everyone. <3
  48. thanks alwayssearching! :)
  49. That makes sense. :)
  50. Hi nvineyar, if you are using images from your phone sometimes they will need to be re-oriented on a desktop computer and saved before uploading...I've fixed it for you this time. :)
