likely the most impressive estate sale I'll ever attend. this man was a collector in many areas and he liked his treasures old and ornate. most of his enormous, packed house was full of giant pieces of intricate furniture. everything smelled like 40 years of darkness. I crawled underneath tables, reached into cobwebs and found tiny treasures that I could easily haul away.
1) ornately carved wood trivets from India -- the old kind. 2) carved antlers made of wood -- I wonder what these were for!? 3) cast iron (?) art nouveau wall hook. 4) three brass frames with bows -- for framing treasured photos. 5) brass picture stand. 6) square metal (maybe painted cast iron?) frame or trivet base for something fabulous.
