Antique Questions Forum / VINTAGE ANTIQUE GLASS PICTURE FRAME W/ PAINTED FLOWERS

« on: April 08, 2008, 06:45:29 pm »

I have 2 Vintage Antique pictures in wooden frames with glass. The first is called Basket of Camellias, and the second is called Basket of Morning-glories. It looks like these pics are painted on canvas or some type of cloth. I think that they are from around the 1940's to 1950's. They are very nice paintings and you can see from the frames front and back that they are very old. The backs are sealed and have been for years. They both have wire attached to hang on a wall.

I am not sure on the year or era, name of company or painter, and I would like to know how much they are worth. Thanks in advance for responses.

But both have a little hole that maybe pops in that says "Push" They look like they are made of plaster possibly.

Not sure about this Fur Coat, Not sure how old it is, but it is from a 80yr old woman's house. I am wondering how you can tell if it is real or fake fur. It does not have any labels or numbers or names. Does anyone recognize the maker or know anything about the year of it. Small size. Is it worth anything? Thanks for responses!
