<p>[QUOTE=&quot;verybrad, post: 83095, member: 37&quot;]Haven&#039;t posted here in quite awhile but I have been buying.&nbsp; concentrating on furniture but have picked up some art and a few other things.&nbsp; Pretty much avoiding glass, china, and pottery.&nbsp; It just doesn&#039;t sell. </p><p><br /></p><p>Will post some things here now and some others in the <i>Tales from the Hoard</i> thread that I have worked on for the store.&nbsp; I have other things that I still need to photograph and/or edit that I will post later.&nbsp; All are thrift store finds unless posted otherwise. </p><p><br /></p><p>This is a rather large MCM blond mahogany 6 drawer chest made by the West Michigan Furniture Co.&nbsp; They produced some higher end furniture in the 50s and 60s before they were bought out in the 80s.&nbsp; Drawer pulls are solid bronze.&nbsp; Only paid $25.00 for this.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]21193[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Picked up three paintings by a woman in the Cleveland area by the name of Christine Butwina.&nbsp; Not much info about her but I did find she was still living in the same house where she lived when she painted these. I am guessing these are late 60s or early 70s and she is well into her 80s.&nbsp; I think just a talented amateur.&nbsp; The first was $3.00 and the second was $8.00.&nbsp; I haven&#039;t edited a pic of the third one yet so will post it later. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]21194[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]21195[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>This modern lamp was $6.00 and I found the shade later for $2.00.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]21196[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>This pair of carved figures are from the Philippines.&nbsp; Bought for $12.00 from a picker. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]21197[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>This little oak stand is missing a shelf. It is still quite sturdy without it and the holes left behind are relatively unobtrusive.&nbsp; Bought for $5.00.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]21198[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
