Antiques
A family business for 104 years this year!
For 104 years, my family has offered antiques of all varieties. The elements of business I have been handed down are that of honesty & integrity. I stand behind all items I offer for sale and I try to describe them as best as I can.
Newest addition. See it on the New Items page.
This sewing box has a nice history included. The cushion has been removed but the decoration is still intact. There are beehive feet, and it has a floral themed decoration. It was made by Mr. Chadbourne (see photo of the history) probably around 1860. It has a Maine origin. 8 1/2" X 7 1/2". 10" to the top of the post.
A very country blanket chest in red paint. Nicely scalloped apron and possibly original hardware. Original snipe hinges. Appliied base molding. Pine and poplar construction with dovetailed drawers. Minor insect damage on backboards and side. First quarter of the 19th century. New England or New York origin. Height: 43 1/2". Case width: 37 1/2". Case depth: 17 1/2".
I've decided to bring this back out of my collection. Dome top box in ochre paint decoration. Soft wood and nailed construction. The original leather hinges are broken but present, and have been replaced by added brass hinges. The bail pull on the top appears to be original as is the lock. The lock latch is possibly a later replacement. It measures 15"W X 8"D X 7"H. From the collection of Marilyn & Roland Kemble.
A very fine pie safe in original dark green paint, showing excellent proportion. 12 finely pierced panels with stars in circles and borders showing old yellow paint. Outstanding condition. Probably western Pennsylvania or Ohio origin. Mid 19th century. 38 1/2" wide X 16" deep X 58 1/2" high.
Here is a very nice maple ladder back chair in old finish. It has a Shaker feel to it but I don’t believe it is Shaker. The finials are beautifully turned. The weaved seat is fairly intact but dry and delicate. It is probably a New England chair and dates to the 19th century. 46 ¼” H X 23 ½” W X 18” D. Seat height 18 ½”
E. Howard #70 regulator clock. Original panel. Oak case in an old surface. #70 impressed on weight. Bezel latch is missing. This style dates to mid-19th century. Approximately 31" high.
This is a fine mahogany candlestand. It is made of dense mahogany and superbly built. The oval top is one piece. It has been refinished some time ago but is otherwise in excellent condition. This stand originated in Philadelphia and dates circa 1800. It measures 30” H and the top is 26 1/2 “ X 19”. When the top is standing, the height is 44 ½”.
Here is a really nice pair of clubs. 25 1/2" tall. Old vibrant paint surface. Probably early 20th century. From a Texas estate.
Pachisi game board in ochre and red paint. There is also a checker board on the back but it is hung this way. Pine two-board construction with applied moldings and early round nails. Probably early 20th century. 28 3/4" X 18 3/4"
Mahogany card table wth banded cuffs and seven inlaid oval panels. North shore of Mass. Ca. 1800-1810. 35" W X 17" D X 29 H.
