I have come across a hammered copper bowl marked "Fire Bronze." Can anyone provide me any info on this maker?

Thanks D&b. I'll continue the search with a new spelling and hopefully find something similar to my lamp.

I don't have digital capability so cannot post pics. It does sound French but I was told Renaud (sic) was an American manufacturer and the only markings on the lamp indicate patents approved in U.S. and Canada. I'll check the website you mentioned (much appreciated) and would also appreciate any other info you can provide. I can snail mail some pics if you think you'd have a shot at identifying the piece. It's an unusual one with a 3" tall by 13" diameter circular drum style shade that includes yellow/white slag glass sides and an acid etched top. Truly gorgeous. I just wish I knew who made it.

Trying to find info about a table lamp. Some one told me it could be a maker called Renaud (unsure of spelling). Can anyone provide me info or a pathway to info on this maker?

Antique Questions Forum / Stickley Cabinet

« on: July 04, 2004, 11:26:53 pm »

I am thinking of purchasing a 57"x42"x13"dark oak Gustav Stickley cabinet. It is in excellent condition. It is marked with the Gustav's signature and the woodworkers compass mark. It appears, however, to have been painted at one time (very minimal paint traces remain after it was apparently stripped away) and I am wondering if the value has been seriously compromised and what the value might be currently.
