I have an old recliner that I recently had restored, leather upholstery only. The manufacturer is the Royal Easy Chair Company. They don't seem to have a presence on the internet. Have you heard of them before and are their chairs valuable? I'll be fifty years old this year and this chair used to be my grandfather's. My mother had it long before I was born and it's still in great condition. The wood on the chair is old tiger oak and it goes perfectly with an old Stickley rocker that I have, just to give you an idea of the style. Anything that you can tell me about the company would be appreciated. timbrinton@adelphia.net

Hello! A local merchant has three vases for sale that are absolutely beautiful, but I don't know what they are and am looking for advice before I purchase them because he doesn't know what they are either! He acquired them from an estate sale, along with boxes of other items from the late 1940's. These vases are bone colored ceramic (there is also a pink ceramic vase)and have beautiful ceramic roses attached on front (the roses appear to have been hand done) and the vases have a gold (appears to be real gold) drawing on the reverse side. On the bottom of the vases there is a crest of some sort. The crest looks like it could be the letter W under a crown. Please help! I can be contacted at courtxox@aol.com Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
I have inherited three boxes of lovely china. I was told they were flow blue, but upon researching, I found they were not. I can't find anything about them. There are teapots, chocolate pots, cups, cups and saucers and a wide assortment of bowls and plates. Some are labeled "made in Japan" with Japanese letters, but most are unmarked. All have a hand painted floral motif, some with lovely hand painted roses with gold edging around the roses. All of them have a vivid cobalt blue edge, many with thick gold trim. When I turn the bowls and saucers over, the blue on the edge has bled into the white china, which is why I was told they were flow blue. I would certainly appreciate any help in getting on with my search to find out what I have, where it came from, and what it might be worth. Many thanks to my helpers. dondeppe@hotmail.com

Do you have any photos of Koken barber chairs. I just bought one in almost mint condition. White porcelain and blue leather with head rest and the leather strap attached for cleaning razors. Leather is flawless, original, not faded or cracked. Seals are good, only leaks if tipped. I was told it was around 130 yrs old. Owner had it for 41 yrs and bought from an old barber when he was a teen. He is 66 yrs. old the man he got it from was in his 70's when he got it from him. The head rest was never used by the owner I got it from. It works and has black leather on it and really old yellow paper where the rolls used to go. Chrome is about 98 % good. Some rust on bottom that touches the floor but you can't see it unless you tilt it to look underneath. Hydraulics work fine, leaf engraving on head rest. I was told that a dealer told him it was around 130 yrs old and offered him over a $1000 for it. There is also fancy engraving on foot rest. Trying to find out how much its worth. Thank you Lisa. email: bigheart_36@hotmail.com

I have a hydraulic dentist chair (Ritter Motor Chair) made by the Ritter Company Inc. of Rochester, N.Y. The chair still works and is in fair overall condition. The latest date I can find on the chair is 1929, but it may not be that old? I loosely estimate 1930-1950, but am looking for a way to accurately date it (I have the serial number) and thus be in a better postion to sell it. If you have any information at all, or can point me in the right direction, or would like to buy, please contact me at: kdmwrest@ev1.net
I too have a Marwal Ind Inc. piece. It is very heavy, not hollow, a lady, very Italian looking piece or Greek piece? on a chase type thing.

It is a full body sculpture. williams640@attbi.com
I have a set of Wm. A. Rogers silverware, and I'm trying to find out the name of the pattern. I searched a website called "Replacement Ltd" with no success. On the back, is the inscription "Wm.A.ROGERS A1 PLUS ONEIDA LTD." The silverware was bought in the mid-60's by my father for his mother.

Looking for information and value on some chairs I have. Any help appreciated! First ones are marked: GF Chair, 4589 478, GF Sturgis Div, Sturgis, Mich. They also have 89/70 written on the bottom in white. They have chrome frame/legs with a curved cushion seat/back (one piece). I assume in vinyl? Color is either school bus yellow or orange (looks different in different lights). the chrome armrests have a black plastic (or ??) top screwed in from bottom. Second chairs I have are marked: Thonet, W. Germany. Made in 1986 (?), the are kind of modern looking, with molded seat with vinyl? cushioning and wood legs (same color as molded seat). The seat is held to legs with inset Allen key screws. Pictures available.
Also looking for information and value on a chandelier I have. Any help is greatly appreciated! It is a veneer and chrome chandelier. It has 5 arms (2 chrome rods) going to each of the 5 lights. The center has veneer sides (round) and each of the 5 light fixtures are veneer sides (round). The bottoms are chrome as is the top of the center unit and chain. The central part also has a down light recessed in the bottom. It's approx 21" diameter, 12.5" high central, hangs 18" from ceiling. There's no screws for globes so I'm not sure what kind of bulbs originally came in it. Maybe used clip on shades that clip on the bulbs?? Thanks! Dave. Rumyboss@yahoo.com

I have an antique Belmont barber chair I am attempting to restore. It has a single handle on the left hand side that seems to control everything.

I have an antique dentist chair. I took it apart to refinish it and need help putting it back together. Does anyone know where I could get an instruction manual to help me put it back together or if there is anyone with any other helpful ideas? The numbers I found under the seat are #2402 & #6822I. I can't find a name on the chair, but from the information we got from the original owner's son, I think it's from before the 1900's. It is not hydraulic, it has a foot pump and the thing that allows it to move up and down has ridges like a screw. Also, does anyone know what this might be worth? You can reach me at tracytc_2@hotmail.com

I have what I believe to be a salesman sample from the Buffalo Carpenter Container C. Inc., Buffalo, NY USA. It is a CARPENTER DRUM. NO it does not have anything to do with NAILS or CARPENTRY. It is a red fiberboard barrel with a metal band around the top and the bottom. The top and bottom are wood. After taking the top band off carefully the circular wooden top comes out. Then you see the CARPENTER TRIPLE SEAL which is a waxy type paper that goes over the sides of the barrel. (The barrel is about 9 7/8" in diameter and about 9 5/8" in height.) The following is printed several times on the seal: CARPENTER TRIPLE SEAL The Purchaser and/or User of this SEAL accepts and agrees to use it only in SANITARY SEALED CARPENTER DRUMS manufactured under US Patent No. 1,414,861. When formed and used in the manner shown heron, this seal is patented and is subject to all rights under the aforesaid patent. Carpenter Container Corporation License No. 6 BUFFALO CARPENTER CONTAINER CO. INC BUFFALO, N.Y. U.S.A.. The bottom of the drum says Carpenter Drum with a number and some words that I cannot decipher. I have called the US Patent office and they are sending me a copy of the patent. If you know anything about this item or company please email me at munchkin@myvine.com. THANKS! Pat.

Hello, SOLID OAK DRESSER I have a solid oak dresser w/detatched mirror (probably 1930-1950,s vintage) and am seeking a matching headboard for same. The information on the back may indicate either the manufacturer and/or retailer (Halpern & Gillman, Brooklyn, New York). They are not in the phone book and have probably been out of business for many years. The dresser tag has a model # of 5101/77 M&M Dresser and the mirror has a model #5101/63. The six drawers of equal size have ornate drawer-pulls which appear to be either hand carved or machine routed. The lower front valance of the dresser is of a slightly sculptured design which also matches the wood frame design on the mirror. I am trying to locate a picture of the matching headboard so I can have one custom made. Or if by chance, someone may know if this manufacturer is still in business under a new name. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks kroth94817@aol.com Any help is greatly appreciated.
