Set
of two framed sixties prints both hand signed and dated 1963. The
prints measure approximately 9.0" high and 11.0" wide, and they
would look great as a set hanging in any room. The frames are gold
and the print color inside matches the frame, each a very finely
detailed drawing of a country home. Very decorative and mood setting,
they come to you direct from the wall of a snowy Vermont country
estate. |

Fun
Winnie the Pooh framed artwork is very well done signed "Lilian"
by an artist in Puerta Vallarta, Mexico in 2002. To be honest, we
are not sure what medium was used to produce this work- with magnification
it appears to be done with very thin, colored twigs. I suppose we
could remove the glass from the 7" x 5" framed work, but
we'll leave that to you. Suffice it to say that the colors and detail
of this Winnie the Pooh depiction is not only finely done but also
interesting in texture, in excellent condition as part of a San
Diego, CA estate collection; cross listed on Toys & Children

listing! Great pair of old wall plaques depicting a man and woman
of most likely Aztec, Incan, or Mayan origin. Decorative and finely
detailed, these plaques measure approximately 8.5" x 8.5" and are
made of a very unique composite material that appears as fine flakes
of different colors, meant to capture the appearance of granite.
The male is particularly well done with the head of the bird protruding
from his ornate headdress. Excellent condition and mounted on black,
tiered wood wall plaques; ready for hanging!

Fun
pair of signed Gelakooska prints of a bike and an airplane, perfect
for a children's room. The whimsical bicycle #12 is ready for speed
and action with stars on its rear fender and is colorful and vibrant
in its coloring. The equally whimsical airplane, also #12, is similarly
built for speed with stars on the wings and colors of red, blue,
yellow, white, and gray set against a green background. Both prints
are framed in simple wood frames and are in very good condition,
measuring approximately 14.75" x 11.75". Both prints are
signed in the lower right Gelakooska and come direct from a major
Los Angeles, CA estate collection of mid-century; cross listed on

Pretty
Italian hand painted enamel on porcelain framed plaques evoke the
look and feel of the 1950s and 1960s in their presentation and colors.
Each plaque is in a nicely crafted wood frame, contrasting an octagonal
outer edge with the interior oval which frames the picture. Each
painting is truly a miniature work of art, all hand painted and
whimsical in the depictions of femm fatales of the day decked out
in their Sunday finery. The drawings are fun and vibrant in their
use of color, enamel on porcelain and trimmed with gold along the
edges. The pictures are set against a matte background to really
make them shine, and the backs have a hook and a no slip surface
to help them stay straight on the wall. Each of the 2 plaques meausure
6.5" wide and 9.5" high including the top ring hook. Each
of the paintings is in excellent condition, and the frames have
a few nicks here and there and a little crazing on the front veneer,
but frankly if we didn't see that we'd find such pieces suspect.
Great find, direct from a major Omaha, NE collector of fifties and
sixties mid century design.

From
the estate of a British gentleman living in Rye, New York, this
pair of vintage needlepoints have whimsical designs and excellent
execution. You can make your grandparents smile with these two designs.
The first has all the desirable themes- grandfather with his fishing
pole, the little boy with his toy sailboat, and the dog sitting
happily by under the tree, and a caption which reads "If all
else fails- ask grandfather." The other features grandmother
and the little girl sitting on opposite sides of the hearth, large
cauldron pot hanging over the fire, and a caption "If mother
says no- ask grandmother." In addition to the whimsical scenes
and captions, both of the works feature a nice intricately rendered
border design as well that really adds flair around the edges. Each
of these well done needlpoint pictures measures approximately 14.0"
x 11.0" and is wrapped around a cardboard backing, ready to
go into the frame of your choice. Excellent condition- makes a great
gift for the grandparents. Cross listed on Textiles 3. |

If
you like early American illustration and/or great sailing ships,
you'll love this vintage wood mirror featuring the Currier &
Ives print Clipper Ship Nightingale that gives this piece a great
nautical theme and a great look. The Currier & Ives print of
the 1800s clipper sailing ship is of typically fine detail and rich
colors, and the print itself measures approximately 7.5" x
5.5" and is marked in the lower left corner "Currier &
Ives." The Federal style wood frame that supports the print
and the mirror has nice detail and a classical form, and a hanger
has already been attached to make it ready to hang on the wall.
The entire piece measures approximately 10.25" wide and a 18.5"
high, a nice moderate size to use in a variety of locations in your
home. There is some very minor discoloration around the edges of
the print and there are a few nicks on the wood frame of the mirror,
but overall the mirror and print are in very good condition and
right off the wall of New Canaan, CT country estate. (P.S. - sorry
about the finger prints and reflection on the mirror from the photography;
the mirror itself is in very good condition and now print free!) |

Hard
to find pair of vintage Mexican feather art, two wonderfully
colorful and detailed renditions of birds with beautiful flowing
plumage sitting on a tree branch surrounded by various leaves and
flowers. The vibrant colors of the birds are set against a pure
black background for striking effect, and they're framed in nicely
carved wood frames that have great style and detail craftsmanship
in and of themselves; they measure approximately 12.25" x 6.5".
Feather art makes bird art look so real, but it was very time consuming
and complex to do well and thus has fallen out of mainstream arts
and crafts today. Well done feather art has always commanded strong
prices and necessitated a good framing, and these are no exception.
One thing that stands out about the quality of these is actually
not the feathers but the detail with which the elaborate floral
backgrounds were painted to complement the birds. One frame has
a stamp on the back for Mexi-Mart in Toronto, Ohio while the other
has a small "Made Mexico" paper label. Both frames, the
glass protector, and the feather art within are all in very good
condition, right off the wall of a farmhouse in the countryside
outside Altoona, PA. |

New
listing! Whimsical folk art hand stiched needlework pig, perfect
for hanging in any kitchen to add flair and guaranteed to generate
complements from your guests. These are very hard to find, and this
one has quite a lot of age to it. Like any good butcher, you can
have your ready reference guide right on the wall as different color
and pattern fabrics are used to depict the individual sections of
this tasty pig- butt, loin, ham, spareribs, picnic, and of course
bacon. Note the curly tail. In addition to the main design, the
perimeter and corners of the work are nicely detailed with flowers
and other whimsical decoration. The art is in good condition with
the exception of some age spots and water staining, some of which
can likely be cleaned but we advise against it and think it's perfect
just as it is- if it didn't look this way we'd be skeptical about
the age and origins. Direct from a Ft. Lauderdale, FL waterway estate,
this fun example of 20th century folk art is sure not to last long!

Turn
of the century religious print of a nun, bible open, standing before
an altar with a cross depicting Jesus' crucifixion c. 1900. This
print is in very good condition and was produced by the Pinsonneaul
Studios in Trois Rivieres, Quebec, Canada. On the back is a handwritten
inscription appearing as "To Mathilda" as well as "Mother" (hard
to make out with ink wear over the years) plus a date that appears
to be 1901. This vintage religious print measures approximately
7.25" high and 5.25" wide and is in good condition.

Original
signed Chinese art rendering of "The Great Wall", number
13 out of 50 produced, and signed by the artist A. Pelloton (uncertain
this is the exact spelling of the end of his/her name) and marked
with hand rendered "A. P." red mark. The drawing is a
somewhat stylized view of the Great Wall of China, with other Chinese
buildings in the foreground and the mountains of the countryside
in the background. None of our staff were sure of the exact technique
used to make this red tint drawing / painting, so we'll leave it
to say that it's very unusual and beautiful with the mono-color
red hues. It's hand signed under the work "The Great Wall",
13/50, and the artist's signature. With frame, it measures approximately
14.75" high and 11.5" wide, while the artwork itself is
6.125" in diameter. |

Very
striking pair of Artini hand painted engravings are in the form
of wall plaques and came right off the wall of Burlington, Vermont
country farmhouse and are a real find. These Artini plaques are
"hand painted twin etched scuptured engravings" that offer
a "four dimensional" look. They're made from "nature's
most beautiful and durable raw materials combined with many years
of scientific and artistic research." The label on the back
of each plaque notes that they have "strength and durability
superior to ivory or Carrara marble which it so closely resembles."
Each is numbered and has the Artini Arts label on the back. We like
the border of these plaques as well as we enjoy the highly detailed
depictions of two birds and a basket of sunflowers, ready to hang
on the wall. Each measures approximately 7.0" x 6.0" and
have the Artini copyright. /85 |

Vintage
patriotic needlepoint picture Liberty 1776 is framed in a simple
wood frame and very well done. It's got strong detail in the eagle,
and we like the stylized stars and stripes flag motif below with
the moniker Liberty 1776, the key year of the Revolutionary War.
It's a nice tight weave, all hand done, and it measures approximately
16.0" x 11.75" not including the frame. Ready to hang
on a new wall, it's in very good condition and is part of a significant
Jacksonville, FL estate consignment exclusive to Collectics. |

Very
nicely done painting on copper plate "Children At Play"
and signed "Kaye" in the lower right. Two little girls
in white dresses with touches of red and yellow respectively toss
a red ball back and forth, while a boy in brown pants looks on.
We particularly like the muted pastel colors of the trees and forest
in the background, capturing all the hues of blue, pink, and purple
set against the white fluffly clouds in the background. It's in
excellent condition and mounted in a nice gold wood gilt frame with
a linen separation panel that could be cleaned slightly if you so
desire. The artwork itself is an excellent example of enameling
on copper, and the plate itself measures approximately 16.0"
x 12.25" while the frame measures approximately 22.5"
x 18.5"; cross listed on Toys & Children 3 and direct from
a Kansas City estate. |

Vintage
mounted and framed butterfly is a blast back to the early to mid
20th century when such framed butterflies were particularly popular.
It's understandable in retrospect, for note the rich colors and
textures of the butterfly wings and body. This butterfly is mounted
along with foliage to give it added flair and realism, and it's
in excellent and all original condition. This specimen is particularly
fine, with iridescent green providing an incredibly and eye catching
contrast with the predominant black color of this mounted butterfly.
This is a Max Richter butterfly, a man known to butterfly collectors
and conservationists who bred and sold butterflies in the 1960s
out of E. Durham NY including many rare species. It measures approximately
9.0" x 7.0" and has the original label on the back from
the Max Richter Butterly Farm in East Durham, NY up in the Catskill
Mountains. The specimen is noted as is the country of origin (Malaysia).

listing! Very well done twin solid mahogany wood carvings
in very good condition except one tooth missing from the crown out
of the dragon's mouth (see photo). This set is wonderful, very highly
detailed, and both items measure approximately 9" tall and
6" wide. The wood is solid mahogany, and both masks were very intricately
hand carved. We obtained these items from a woman who traveled the
world and was a serious collector of many exotic items. The detail
is superb, and the smoothness of the faces really add to the quality.

A
nice signed Beshlie English color print c 1978 can be yours and
ready for a mount and frame. The Dancing Puppet recalls that long
before the elaborate marionette and puppet theatres appeared, the
one man puppet show with a simple roll-down backdrop was a popular
street entertainment. The doll was often used to act out dying speeches
of heroes or outlaws and the confessions of murderers. The detail
and colors are typically high quality as Beshlie has a very strong
history and reputation as a top illustrator. The signed print itself
measure approximately 9.75" x 7.25" and it is mounted
on a black border cardboard frame suitable for placement in a picture
frame. It also comes with a cardboard backing for use with the name,
description, and artist of the print. /45 |

tile "Mosaic Dancers", by Alberto Manfredi (Italian b.

dancing figures are depicted with a ball of fire in the upper right,
stylized depictions that evoke the sense of another world and whose
color scheme really catches the eye. The work is mounted on wood

have been a table top as Manfredi sometimes did oil paintings on
tile for very high end, one of a kind Italian furniture pieces.

the frame and approximately 29.5" high x 18.75" wide without.

a little oil paint if you so desire although we would leave it as
is. Appraised on 11/12/96 for $3500, Manfredi's work has consistently
