Fabulous pair of heavy brass ornaments, so perfect for display! Position over a grouping or paintings, or add a ribbon as shown to hang a platter or tapestry. I would use the pair over a window with ribbons to softly gather and tie up a linen sheet as a most unique window treatment! The ideas are endless! One still has traces of gilt on it and I have not polished them to preserve their patina. Measure 11" X 2 1/2"

A dramatic french bronze lion rares up on green marble bases of this pair of original art deco book ends! Excellent patina! They are poised on heavy green marble weighing about 4 lbs. each! Perfect condition but for an old repaired crack in the base shown in the third photoand what might be a crack along a vein. However,does not compromise the sturdiness or
take away from this stunning set! The old felt on the bottoms seem to be original. 7" X 6" X 3 1/2"

The large scrolling iron hat and coat hooks are the stars of this piece. The wood base seems to be blonde painted over withc chippy old siver paint. The camera glare does detract from the appearance. Quite a find for any room of your home! Leave it as is or even remove the paint or even the hooks to be added somewhere else!It hangs on the wall by the original flat metal hangers.Measures 21" X 2 3/4"

For your bird or your decor, as seen in so many beautifully appointed homes! I found this treasure in a little shop in Brussels and just had to bring it home. I've had the pleasure of enjoying it in various spots in my home until I could get around to listing it for you to see. My favorite part is the lovely 6" turned wood finial at the top! The brass tray is held on with 2 original brass screws( and 1 replacement). It's certainly functional. It has the original little brass feeding ...click for details

My photos don't do justice to this quaint Swiss Mountain Cabin Scene on heavy iron. The colors are quite muted in tone ,with Arts and Crafts stylized pine cone designs in each corner and circling the cabin scene. According to my research,the first tole painting on iron was stenciled rather than painted. Some crackling and loss of paint, consistent with its age, adding charm in my opinion. 10" X 10 3/4" I have not cleaned or polished it.What a delightful accent to your mountain retr ...click for details

This handsome Very heavy iron mirror reminds me of work by Gustave Serrurier-Bovy, a leading Belgian Art Nouveau Designer. His early work owes much to French and English design,especially William Morris' Arts and Crafts movement.It is symmetrical with restrained curves.An applied grape leaf adorns the top and a smaller leaf on each bottom side of the heavy original beveled mirror.There's a chip behind the left bottom leaf and some small loss of silver from the mirror back, which I think ...click for details
