    My wife and I love all things antique. We've been collecting for years, starting with what we could afford...and improving the collection and upgrading as finances have allowed. From vintage cars to glassware and furniture...we have a bunch!
    From time to time, we buy pieces because we love them, but then start to realize they may be something special - those are the items I'll be asking about here because, while we are not novices (we're really good at buying at least!), our likes are so wide ranging it's hard to be "experts" on everything.
    The first thing I'm posting is an antique corner cupboard, possibly Swisegood School, with several unique features. There are details that date it to late 18th century, but it could be mid-19th Century. Down the road, maybe I'll post the large format Tommaso Cuccioni 3-panel photograph of the Roman Coliseum dating to 1858 (the frame is 6'3" x 3'7" and quite possibly the one displayed at the World Exposition in London in 1862 - it's an interesting tale and there is competing claims of provenance on "which" photo was displayed).
