[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 988638, member: 84"]I won this at a online estate sale auction - $9! (I think because it looked a lot smaller in the photos in auction) - it looks like it's painted over what looks like brass? Is this clossine (probably not spelling it right!)? Any idea of it's age? What does the marking on bottom say? It measures 19"W x 16"H I'm hoping this is a nice piece - it came out of a beautiful condo on Brickell Ave (downtown Miami), so fingers crossed! Thank you for any info. PS - Bottom photos taken outside shows brass? underneath shining. Also, if you move your hand or finger across it's side you can feel the different thickness of the painted flowers, designs [ATTACH=full]205818[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]205819[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]205820[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]205821[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]205822[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]205823[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]205824[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]205825[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]205826[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
