Lot of antiques, chairs, chandeliers etc.

[Hans K.]

Hello guys,

this is my first post on the forum.
I come from Hungary and my family have a mansion which we are selling. The potencial buyer doesn't need the furnitures so I decided to show the better pieces here, I am thinking of selling some of them later.

Unfortunately I can't give you too much information at the moment about the pieces, as soon as I will have more info about the date etc. will let you know.

The first one is in my opinion a very nice chandelier, it was made around 1720 if I well know, it has been restored (gilted) some years ago.

[Hans K.]

If I well know these furnitures are called as empire style?

[Hans K.]

I think most of the furnitures were made in the baroque era.
Here are some more chairs and chandelier.

The chandelier is beautiful.

Are there any markings on the furniture at all? Names etc. Is the wood "Flamed Mahogany"? I more question Is it french?

The black pieces look to be Ebonized....if you can give us some pics of the rear,of the large piece..and some pics of the drawer sides....in order that we can determine...which way the dovetails have been cut....and to see what wood they are made of...

Hello,

thank you very much for your comments, I will try to make new photos, there are much items, I just don't find the pictures yet.

Yes, its exactly that ebonized Napoleon, I have a book from that will try to scan it later.
The price I found very high, we bought them for 2000 $/piece.

I don't know about the markings will check all of them.

Do you have any idea how much the first chandelier would worth?

Kind Regards,
Hans

I found your settee for $2,935.00. For some reason it won't let me cut and paste. I'll check for the chandelier.
