I recently bought this Baldwin Parlor Ice Box. It’s about 75″h x 42″l x 22″deep and is in two parts. I’ve never seen one this ornate and fell in love with it. Can anyone give me any info such as approx. age, wood type and insurance value,etc. Thanks.

A green porcelain lampshade with two gold dragons has been in my family for years. I’ve seen other green lampshades, but never with any decorations. Can anyone tell me about mine? It’s 8″ tall and 12″ wide, green on the outside, and white inside. Thanks so much for your help! Tried to post a picture, but evidently it’s too big… I can email the picture if you’re interested. Thanks!
Does anyone know anything about this table style? It has been in the family since at least the early 1950’s. The top has two halves, hinged in the middle. [img size=248]https://kovels.com/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/TableOpen2.jpg[/img] To close it, you lift one half, slide the other to cover the top and fold the lifted half on to the bottom section. This way, the top is ½ as wide. There is a storage space under the top, accessible by lifting either half of the open top or both sections of the folded top. I was told it was a library table but I find none on the Internet of similar design. Any ideas of history or value? Thanks!
