This beautiful set is dated back to between 1910 and 1920. The finish is Mahogany. The table comes with four leaves and they are placed where one of the sides drop down. There is no split in the middle. There are four sets of legs and with the leaves the table measures almost ten feet in length. The chairs are circa 1800 to 1815. They have the lyre back and are beautiful. There are one arm chair and five others. This set is beautiful beyond words. It truly has to be seen to be appreciated.   « Less

This dome top trunk would come from the late 1800 to very early 1900's. It measures 34.5"L X 24"H X 18"W and is covered in a combination flat metal and blackberry pattern embossed tin. The colors are black and cream and the cream has been given a head start toward the aging process. New handles have been applied and it opens, shuts, and latches just fine. The interior retains its original paper which is brownish with a green pattern. It has been placed under a protective coating. Not perfect but about 95% complete. The original lithograph remains on the inside lid. The original tray was missing when found so I will include a new tray similar to the new one pictured below, without the dividers.   « Less

A nice monitor top trunk from around 1910. This trunk measures 32"L X 24"H X 18.5"W and is built good and solid. Latches work fine and a hasp and working padlock have been installed where the original lock would have been. Goes well with the character of the trunk. The actual hasp is old but I used a safety receiver. If all things work as planned you have to touch the receiver with your finger to move it up just a touch so the hasp will close over it (it is a smooth operation). Hinges and all the important moving things are A+. Nice wide end handles have been installed which are toned much better than shown in the photo's and the bottom has been made suitable for your home. Kind of "clean" but I suppose it has a pretty decent nautical sort of look.The inside is finished wood which has been stained a cut down walnut. The tray is solid poplar and left natural so you get a nice variety of colors.   « Less

Dimensions are 35.5"L X 22.5"W X 27"H. Pine construction with very old green over red (or salmon)paint. Hand wrought handles, hinges, hasp, and nails. It appears to make this more watertight, some rawhide was secured over the seams by huge hand forged nails and it made the change from red to green after than, old. The nails extend into the chest and are bent over. The shanks of the nails vary in length and form like the heads. On the back side there is a small wax stamp (like they used to do to seal a letter) stating "customs permission" "B10" (I think) and a symbol I do not recognize but probably an early customs symbol before the scales symbol was used. I mention this as I would imagine it has been a bit since the customs department has wax stamped items and the green paint is under this seal and not on it. The green is quite old as is the customs department.On one side of this chest are two forged metal squares I would venture to say were used to secure the chest to the ship. In rough seas on an old sailboat, if things are not secure, they tend to become missiles. There is no seam in the metal squares. The hinges shown are certainly very old. They are the second set of hinges. Traces of the first set remain in the same fashion as the second but under the rawhide in contact with the original color. The wrought handles, hasp, and metal squares extend into the chest interior correctly. The hasp will accept a padlock.The structure is super sound with no decay or weakness. Old filler is seen on the bottom attending to board shrinkage which is correct. Some old tool marks are noted in the appropriate curve and join areas. Sits just slightly back from the two guys carrying it dragging the back bottom first before setting it down. The inside is clean and very suitable for storage as you wish. The outside has been treated with linseed oil and a shot of wax. It is very smooth to the touch.I tend to approach old chests cautiously but cannot find fault in this one. The age is an estimate but I feel comfortable at 200 years anyway. Should breeze through another 100.   « Less

At 36"L X 24"H X 21"W this is a large curved top trunk from around 1910 or so. While it was built with a slight curve, I believe this one supported a good size TV for a couple teens through the 70's and 80's, and as such, it is pretty much a flat top these days. Sort of the long board bends easier than a short board thing. 20 years of a good size TV put the sway in this one, which makes it flat since it was curved to start. It is constructed of what appears to be solid birch or something similar other than pine. Not a perfect trunk in that there is a crack across the lid and another on the back which are stress cracks and there are some chunks on the top missing from what appears to have been a nail pulling in removal of the of the original strap keepers. No decay, just minor trauma along the way, sounds bad, looks nicer. All hardware is original other than the lock was missing when found. Sort of has that rustic look about it so I installed an old oversized hasp and working padlock in its place. 2 keys are included. All other exterior hardware is original, the latches work great, opens and shuts like new, and the slat clamps are quite pronounced with fresh paint.   « Less
