ANTIQUES & COLLECTIBLES GROUPED BY PRICE
I have a lot of stuff I need to get listed and I haven't been getting to it. It's not prcatical to make a new
page for every item so I've added a few new pages to group some of the lesser expensive items on.
I try to give good descriptions when possible but may add some things with little info just to get them on here.

Sevré Candelabra
Original Sevre Candelabra 18" tall, Gold Rococo design with 2 ceramic hand painted scenes. There are old repairs to two of the arms and two of the feet. The repairs to the feet are a bit crude looking on the bottom but not very noticeable when its standing upright No visible Sevre marks but not all pieces were marked. Its obviously Sevre! It was probably part of a clock set. I've had it disassembled and stored for years but now it needs a good home where it cane be seen and enjoyed. This piece came from Kohlberg's antiques in the early late 60's or early 70's. Even with the repairs, its a beautiful example of French work!

Flight Medal
Rare old flight medal with a plane similar to the Wright brothers airplane. This would have to be one of the oldest flight related medals around! It couldn't be military because the military didn't use planes until WWI I. The round part is a hollow and gold plated, its hanging from an "Art Nouveau" styled loop. The design and construction of this medal is typical of early 1900's style. The Wright bro's first flight was in 1903. There are no markings on it. Its 2 1/4" tall and the loop on top may have been for a ribbon to go through. I've been collecting for 30 years and have never seen anything like this. $150.
