16”x16” framed stretched canvas blue and orange painting. No signature on front. Back has what appears to be “Bob Stanley 1965 Paul McCartney for Peggy” in black ink, possibly marker. It is in good condition, no punctures, paint chipping or tears, it has some mild scuffing and a little grime. The frame is original to the piece when I purchased it and is somewhat crude, nailed directly into the wood canvas frame with a thin piece of gold molding. The molding is popping up slightly in one corner.

This miniature porcelain doll, in its original packaging, complete with waxed stamped seals, was my great grandmothers. My grandmother was born in 1918, so this was HER mother’s- meaning it was a toy roughly 20 or so years prior we assume- so maybe just about 1900 or late 1800’s. It is in nearly perfect condition, for its age.

Hello, I'm hoping you can appraise my painting. It looks to me like an Eduardo Von Grutzner, but that's just a guess, based on my Internet searches. I don't see a signature on the front and haven't tried to remove the frame to inspect the back. It seems to be painted on wood rather than canvas, and has a small chip on the lower right front. It's approximate 15" wide by 20" long (measured dimensions from the back, inside the frame). If it makes sense to have the painting restored I'd be interested in doing that and/or selling it.

The table and chairs have a few bumps and scraps, but they could be fully restored.

This item was found encased in a wooden and glass box, with wires holding it down where the holes are drilled. It is hollow but had nothing stashed inside. It has an inscription on the back which a Tibetan speaker told me was in the very old "Lenza" script, which they said is not in use so they could not translate it. They also told me this was the Buddha “Amitayus” or Buddha of Limitless Life associated with meditations and mantras for a long life. It is silver in color but has green oxidation. I have not had the metal tested yet. 10 cm height 7 cm width 5 cm depth
