This is a Blue Mountain Pottery duck in rich dark blue-green glaze, and the typical brushed accents. He measures 5.5 inches in height. Blue Mountain was a Canadian firm that opened in 1947. I've heard that prices on these pieces are rising due to the factory burning down, but I don't know the details. He's a cute little guy for the bird and wild life lover. Condition: Very good

You are viewing a wonderful Art Deco ornately detailed store front bell. Left in its original condition, this piece has a lovely patina. I bought it many years ago right out of an old store estate. The bell has a very nice old thunk ring to it from the large metal dong attached with a simple wire. I believe this was handmade, as I see no evidence of mold markings. My expertise is not in such pieces though, and I bought it just for my own pleasure at the time. It measures just shy of three inches across the bottom as well as three inches high. Condition: Very good; It could use a polish from the years of dust I've added to it, but leaving cleaning to new owner.

It is mother of pearl & abilone inlay on paper mache. 7.5 x 7.75 wide x 2.25 tall. Some alligatoring of paper as expected. Likely English, my research indicates early 1830's, by Jennings & Bettridge.

This is a previously unpublished example of American Aesthetic Movement brass furniture. only marked with a cast in iron patent date, April 18th A Brass Menagerie: Metalwork of the Aesthetic Movement. The Aesthetic movement was a late-19th -century artistic movement in England and America. Formed in reaction to the so-called philistine tastes of the middle class, it espoused art for art's sake while denying any social or moral value in art. (Both James McNeill Whistler and Oscar Wilde were advocates, and were thoroughly lampooned in Gilbert and Sullivan's Patience.) In America the movement was introduced at the American Centennial celebration in Philadelphia in 1876. It remained popular in this country through the 1880s and was particularly evident in the decorative arts, as manufacturers created innovative and artistic applications of industrial metals that were visually and materially complex and called art brass or artistic bronze goods. Art brass maximized industrial mass production techniques and helped to set the stage for 20th -century decorative arts that would also utilize tubular metals and other industrial materials in the creation of decorative household goods. This stand represents an outstanding example of 19th century American Art Brass.
