Rare Early-mid 19th C Faneuil Hall Boston Antique Oil Painting On Tin Door Plate

Posted by admin On May 27, 2020

VERY RARE EARLY-MID 19TH CENTURY FANEUIL HALL, BOSTON, MA ANTIQUE AME RI CAN OIL PAINTING ON CUT-OUT TIN DOOR PLATE, W/ARABESQUE SHAPED ENDS, BLACK. ENAMEL & SCROLLED GOLD GILT. DECORATIVE LINE & DRILLED. Early-mid 19th century Ame ri can painting & depictions of early Ame ri can period architecture. 9″ Height x 3″ Width. This incredibly rare and simply exquisite early to mid 19th century Ame ri can miniature oil painting of the famous, iconic architectural early structure, known as Boston, Massachusetts’ Faneuil Hall, is on a cut-out tin door plate, featuring arabesque cut-out ends, with black enamel and gold gilt scrolled decorative line, is in wonderfully well-preserved overall antique condition. It remains untouched and unmolested and in absolutely 100% original antique condition. It was just discovered on the North Shore of Massachusetts. This most likely late Federal to early Sheraton-period New England, early-mid 19th century antique architectural accessory relic, is an Ame ric ana gem and an important Ame ri can cultural artifact. Notwithstanding the fact that present-day Faneuil Hall (now Faneuil Hall Marketplace) is the 4th most-visited historic site out of the top 25 historic sites in all of the Unit ed Sta tes, this hand-painted, antique door plate features a vertical-format central, entirely hand-painted rendition of the iconic Federal-style Faneuil Hall, redesigned and expanded in the early 19th century by famed Ame ri can architect Charles Bulfinch, considered to be the father of Ame ri can architecture and the nascent nation’s first true Ame ri can architect. Very Good to Excellent overall antique condition. It remains untouched and in unmolested original antique condition. It is without damage except for some very minor black enamel loss around where an original metal fasteners once held the cut-out and pressed tin door plate snugly against an exterior door. Absent are dings, dents, abrasions, loss or scuffs to its remarkable surface. There’s also a single spot of black enamel loss at the very apex point of the the top arabesque cut-out top of the doorplate. However, the miniature oil painting of Faneuil Hall remains undisturbed and doesn’t suffer an abrasion or scuff to the entirety of its surface. This is an important piece of Ame ri can national cultural heritage and of our nascent architectural design impulse, featuring the work of the well-known father of Ame ri can Federal-period architecture, Charles Bulfinch, the architect responsible for none other than the famous Boston, Massachusetts Statehouse, North Church in Boston, Massachusetts General Hospital and the US Capital building in Washington, DC. This antique door plate is nearly originally constituted and in nearly museum quality condition. An extraordinary and important historical discovery. Things don’t get much more exciting or more authentic than this. The item “RARE EARLY-MID 19TH C FANEUIL HALL BOSTON ANTIQUE OIL PAINTING ON TIN DOOR PLATE” is in sale since Monday, January 20, 2020.

C1820 RARE Pair Early American Brass Miniature Silhouette Folk Portrait Frames

Posted by admin On May 24, 2020

What a beautiful pair of early American miniature frames. These date to the first quarter of the 19th century and are composed of a pressed brass molding attached to a wood form backing. These early miniatures are difficult to find in nice condition and this pair is quite unusual for the light moss green tint surrounding the site edge…… Never seen that before and its quite attractive. The frames have their original surface, nice wavy glass, shingle backing and a thin string hanger (was likely originally tin hanger). The pair measures 3 1/8 x 3 1/2 with a 2 3/8 x 2 7/8 rabbet. Fantastic rare, early American pair of frames for silhouettes or miniatures. Thanks from Phoenix Antique Frames.

Very Good Antique Tavern Clock. Rare 2 Train/ Striking. Flame Mahogany. Early 19c

Posted by admin On May 23, 2020

Very Good Antique Tavern Clock. Rare 2 Train/ Striking. Quite a rare clock, similar in principle to an antique longcase clock but designed to attach to a wall. You see more of these in single train (non-striking) format but the two train ones are rarer. A beautiful piece and very impressive you can get an idea of the size compared to some of my other clocks in the pictures. 14 round dial, the dome-topped case measuring 40 high by 18 maximum width. Actually more practical than a longcase clock in that it can be mounted according to ceiling height. Excellent quality case with flame mahogany figuring to the front. No name on the dial but falseplate stamped Finnemore, Birmingham which dates it to the first half of the 1800s. The movement is similar to typical 8-day longcase movements of the period but with different gearing because of the shorter weight-fall. The smaller line barrels can be seen in the pictures. Original steel hands in typical early 19. The clock has been serviced and is fully working. Complete with weights, pendulum, winder and trunk door key (working lock). The item “Very Good Antique Tavern Clock. Rare 2 Train/ Striking. Flame Mahogany. Early 19c” is in sale since Friday, May 22, 2020. This item is in the category “Antiques\Antique Clocks\Wall Clocks\Pre-1900″. The seller is “georgella123″ and is located in Yeovil. This item can’t be shipped, the buyer must pick up the item.
