Thanks gate keeper. Kinda looks like cedar inside. I'll have to smell it too see.

I'm betting it had casters on the legs. If you flip it up and look. You might see holes where they used to go. Also $20 was a steal!

Ive recently been having my grandfather clock worked on. It's an 1816-1860 with a huge mercury pendulum. I was surprised at how much mercury was just hanging!

Thanks so much!

You are right. There is a c on the bottom of the glass. Thanks again for the help.

Thanks for the link. I'm sure it's an energy sucker for sure. I think i'll just use it as a decorative display. Was hoping to find a wind up one. But was happy to find any.

Thank you so much for your never ending knowledge! Your always so helpful.

I seen another typewriter in the house. I haven't pulled it out yet. Was hoping for an older one. But was happy to find this. I love the case. Hoping to find the key.

Thanks for prolly is 50s. I'm finding lots of stuff from the 30s to 70s in this house. Can't wait to get into the attic where the good stuff might be hid. Thanks for the comments.

Salt and pepper is just one of many things I collect. These lil mice are adorable!

They call this style gingerbread or mantel clock. It's a very nice one, what a lucky find!

That's amazing if its paper mache. I found a small clown that I thought was porcelain until I started to wash it. Its paper to my surprise. Sorry I have no help. But would love to know more as well...

Thanks so much fort! In my opinion its very elegant and prettier than the other glass.

Honestly it used to be a very important rich family's home and was in their family until the funeral home bought it. The funeral home moved and sold the house to us. It's only had 2 owners before us....

Thanks so much for commenting. Where would I look to look for Japan markings? I have occupied Japan porcelain never knew they made sewing machines. I have a few other old sewing machines. I didn't ...

Watchsearcher, the attic is very lovely. It has 6 windows as well as two closets one huge walk in cedar closet. And the back stairs that led to the maids quarters.

Anything obscure, I still have an old canister vacuum in the basement! I will have to get a few pictures to post. I still have the switch and hose hole in the base boards. And it will turn on and hum....

Oh and the last picture of the prayer table. I have a matching pair of torchier lamps to go with it.

My old 1849 house used to be a funeral home from 1969 to 2016 when we purchased the house. Yes this is in a room in my basement. With an elevator in the next room over.

Absolutely wonderful!

Cool thanks for the info!

I'm going to post a few things you might find interesting.. hope you go look... :)

I should post my actual electric panel its unbelievable. I didn't realize it was stil hot until the kids blew a fuse recently.

Ive been seeing allot of these on Ebay auction lately. They go for a good amount. But they really are lovely.

Oh I should also mention that the gas arm swings. So have to line them up under the burners.

Thank you for your help. It was hooked up in a house a few streets over from mine. We do have city gas. My gas lines in my fireplace date 1910. Must of been when they switched from log to gas. House...

I actually have 4 sets and two single ones. So actually have 10 lamps total.

I have 3 sets. Except recently knocked one over and broke the shade. So one set the shades don't match anymore! I was so upset myself. I seen a replacement shade but yikes they want $250!

Thank you so much everyone! Great comments! If we do end up using it. It will be inside an already existing fireplace. And won't leave unattended. Plus I already have a wood burning cast iron stove ...

Wow I love this one!

I would love to find one like this! Thanks for sharing.

It's beautiful. I have one similar style. Wheel patented is 1855. I do have the insides to mine. Its posted to my page here.

Thanks! It really does.

I recently was given a 8 foot wardrobe. Started to take it apart to get it upstairs. Found out it came right apart! Just so smooth. Mine is in no way compares to this lovely piece. Its beautiful w...

Thanks so much!

Just love your collection!

Thanks for the info. I was told it was a verge fusee. But didn't really know what that means. Pops collection is amazing.

Please by all means feel free to comment. Thank you. I'm not sure if they are original or not. But the bottom of the shade ends at the top of the base. So it lines up nice anyways. I'm just glad the...

How nice to have family items. Most of my memories from family items, I had to buy similar to remind me. Either other family got them. Or what I did get I was too young at the time to take care of.

I would of loved to see the hanging ones. These are missing the mesh inside. But do have a light. Prolly rewired at some point in their life. They are just absolutely huge! Much bigger than expected...
