Antique Questions Forum / Any Hubley Collectors Here? Dachshund Doorstop
« on: November 29, 2020, 11:45:34 am »
I have a cast iron doorstop that looks like Hubley #326 Adolf. I put it on ebay after I got positive feedback from cast iron collectors on facebook. I got a message, informing me that it's not an authentic Hubley, because it measures just over 5 1/2" tall, instead of 6 1/4" as listed in Hubley's catalog.
Any idea of the maker or this one or if there were any size variations in Hubley's doorstops?

Antique Questions Forum / What Style are these Swivel Sconces and What the Heck is the Amber Glass Thing?
« on: March 26, 2017, 02:44:22 pm »
Picked these up at auction. (I misplaced the mounting brackets, already 
) 2 amber glass pieces came with the lot. I can't figure out what they have to do with the sconces. At first I thought maybe a snuffer, but that doesn't really make sense. They are about 3 1/2" tall.

Sorry for the long wait, Better late, then never? 
Looks homemade. It is non-magnetic, painted metal. The top is the same metal as the rest.

Any ideas to help me identify this lamp? It measures about 3 feet tall. I've been searching "angled wood lamp" "industrial angled lamp," etc. but can't find a similar one.

No markings, that I can see. Someone on facebook said that a similar elephant was used by a photographer at the Audubon Zoo, in New Orleans years ago. I'm not having any luck finding a pic, though. I'm gonna try searching postcards from the Audubon Zoo, maybe find a clue, there. Also, while loading it, I discovered an umm "2nd trunk," on the underside. Decorated like the rest of the piece. Not sure if that's relevant or not.

Antique Questions Forum / Looking for info: "Parade Elephant" Wood Statue
« on: July 21, 2015, 11:06:45 pm »
Picked this up the other day at an estate sale. They called it a parade elephant. It's all wood, about 70lbs and measures 32" x 32" x 17" The elephant is mounted to the base and the wheels still roll (a little labored, but it rolls) Hoping someone can tell me where it's from
