Featured Could anyone identify these items please?

Hi all,

Just found this site

Could anyone identify this items for me please? (Obviously I know ones a bureaux, Merchants Chest, Chest of drawers but wondering more about the wood/era etc and any other names I'm missing) all of the items other then the chairs appear to be matching styles/wood?

Hi Overthehedge....welcome.

You will be asked to post pictures directly into the thread, rather than provide links.

When you do, choose full image.

 

Hi Judy,

I tried that but it said my images were too big so had to find another option

Thanks

 

Here ya go,most people wont click on links.




I think the desk is 1940s,the 3 drawer cabinet is a file cabinet circa 1980s,the chest looks newer to me as well,but that chair,that I find very interesting. probably 1960s,but beautiful.

 

Hi Johnny that's brilliant thanks very much for your help, I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to upload them! That's great info thanks, would you say all items minus the chairs are mahogany? All seem to be a similar wood/style, I also have two very large wardrobes similar wood as well (trying to work out how to upload them!)

Thanks again

 

That chair! Drool...

 

Thanks Aaron, it's a matching pair

 

Gorgeous chair!!!!!! Not signed?

 

Relooking at the pics,are those ivory escutcheons around the locks on the desk ? I could be way off on date if so !

 

Hi Johnny yes they are thanks

Say it slowly unfortunately not

 

Welcome!
Make your photos 480xwhatever number is given and you should never have any trouble.
You can show 10 photos per post.
Please always use the full image button for all your photos.

 

First is a spice chest. Likely modern Indonesia, China , or India. All three make similar. Second is a drop front desk or ladies secretary. Seems to have some good age to it. Would need more pics to evaluate. Third a modern take on arts and crafts furniture. Would think that this could be an Indonesian import as well. Fourth is modern chest from Indonesia or India. A take on Colonial era furniture. Armoire also seems to be fairly modern Indonesian if that hardware is original. Can't tell much about the triple wardrobe. Maybe early 20th century.

 

Sometimes I found that if you can't reduce the pixels, download them into the gallery first, then add them to the post.

 

That's one I didn't know...
-
IF we could only get the FULL IMAGE option as the default.

 

Scientific method is good, but sometimes trial and error works too (hey what if I do this, nope, ok how 'bout this, hey that worked ...)

Well I know one person that would be happy with that option

 

I'm not the only one.
There are a few others who wish it and others who do but don't say anything.
And yet others who never go here on their phones, if they have one, or they would.
It's hard to help anyone or learn when you can't see the photos.

 

Hi and WELCOME, Overthehedge!! Try following this little tutorial to help getting your images up on this site, and ALWAYS, PLEASE, FULL IMAGE SIZE!! Thanks, and Good Luck!!!! If you're doing it on a phone, you will probably need to download a 'resizing images' app! This is for computers....

 

or you can mail them to yourself and it shrinks them for you .
