Rare Early-mid 19th C American Antique Treenware Turned Spool Thread Holder
Posted by admin On March 24, 2020
RARE EARLY-MID 19TH CENTURY AME RI CAN ANTIQUE TREENWARE, LATHE-TURNED SPOOL. THREAD HOLDER, W/WHITE CORD. Antique early-mid 19th c American treenware. 5 ½” Height x 4 ½” Diameter (widest point/ top). There’s an old drying fracture of the maple hardwood on the top, turned edge of the lid of the early to mid 19th century antique maple treenware thread spool holder. This was not the result of a concussion due to a previous drop, but more likely the result of drying of the wood over time, since the piece is nearly 200 years in age. This is an early piece of Americana and early American utilitarian, decorative treenware and its condition is commensurate with its age and previous use. This was not a purely decorative object that was put on a shelf and admired. Rather it would have been used and often used, since textiles were produced in the home and repairs were most certainly produced in the home. This is a rather early piece of American antique treenware and it has recognizable, characteristic fine, lathe-turned detailed lines. The maple hardwood is a wood often used by cabinet makers in 18th and early 19th century America and particularly in New England, where maple was tough and durable and would have withstood repeated abuse. It remains untouched and featuring original rubbed, naturally aged surfaces and patina. It has not been dusted or oiled. It remains in absolutely the same antique condition it was originally constituted in. A remarkable early New England cultural artifact and a splendid piece of early Americana. Good to Very Good overall antique condition. The item “RARE EARLY-MID 19TH C AMERICAN ANTIQUE TREENWARE TURNED SPOOL THREAD HOLDER” is in sale since Monday, October 21, 2019. This item is in the category “Antiques\Primitives”. The seller is “modsanctuary” and is located in Milford, New Hampshire. This item can be shipped worldwide.

Rare Brass Early Electric Ceiling Fixture Victorian Colonial Restored
Posted by admin On March 23, 2020
Includes original (or at least, very old) Bryant paddle-switch sockets with the complementary shade holders. A very handsome piece that I restored for my 1904 apartment, but other projects demand that room be made so I wish to pass it along to another collector. It’s somewhat unusual in style for this era, having a body shape suggestive of Williamsburg chandeliers, and speaking to the neo-Colonial sensibilities in the decorative art of its period. The laurel wreath motifs that decorate the lowest portion of the body enhance the effect. Included is a pair of frosted milk glass shades with a ribbed urn motif. In generally good shape minus one damaged shade holder. The holder still does its job, but all the damaged parts will be included in case you’re handy with soldering and feel confident in making the repair. Newer wiring and modern steel hanging equipment allow it to be easily attached to any ceiling junction box. With some assembly it could be ready to hang the same day it arrives. Please do correspond with any questions. Thanks for your interest. The item “Rare Brass Early Electric Ceiling Fixture Victorian Colonial Restored” is in sale since Friday, July 26, 2019.

WONDERFUL EARLY & RARE’MORAVIAN’ RAG DOLL Polly Heckewelder
Posted by admin On March 22, 2020
WONDERFUL EARLY & RARE’MORAVIAN’ RAG DOLL. Circa: EARLY 1900’S. This doll is from a smoke free home and has no odors. Here is a charming early cloth doll – made by the members of the Moravian Church. For price reference see page # 385 in the book,’Doll Values’ 13th Edition by Linda Edward. And page #26 & 27 in the book’Cloth Dolls’ From Ancient to Modern by Linda Edward. I sure wish that this “Polly Heckewelder” could tell us about her life. This doll does not have her two bonnets. There is a small tear on her left hand. Her facial painting is faded (but who wouldn’t be after all these years). Her clothes have a dirt accumulation but I think this adds to the doll. Her outfit originally was blue and white gingham. These dolls were first made by the Ladies Sewing Society of the Moravian Church Guild in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania to raise funds for the aid of wounded Civil War soldiers. After the Civil War the funds were used to help former slaves. She is a terrific rare cloth doll with wonderful history. From my home to yours. Delivered right to your front door. Don’t forget to add me on as a favorite. It’s that easy. Thanks, Sharon & Ed. The item “WONDERFUL EARLY & RARE’MORAVIAN’ RAG DOLL Polly Heckewelder” is in sale since Wednesday, January 22, 2020.
