Surrounded by a cloud of Buddhist witnesses, this outstanding Kutani 2" deep, 12 1/4" diameter makes a striking decorative statement.

click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 $1250.00
This is an excellent example of Art Nouveau design at its best! A sinuous, flowing young lady, floating in a Turn of the Century glass panel. The measurements are 59 3/4" in height by 16 1/2" in width. The glass, in excellent condition, was reframed in an oak frame some forty years ago, while the actual panel dates from c. 1910 or even earlier. One is reminded of the figures and designs by Mucha which must have inspired panels like this.

click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 SOLD
Standing 6" high, and measuring 3 5/8" diameter across the bottom , these Rose Medallion candlesticks are hard to find and most desirable.

The surrounding rim is a light aqua. The condition is excellent with only some rubbing to the high ridges, and only the evidence of some gilt on the rim. Manufactured in Great Britain, c. 1840.

Sweeden Coat of Arms Ironwork Nouveau Pagecutter, 1900 Catalogue: Antiques: Decorative Art: Metals: Pre 1900 item# 700749
click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 $195.00
This is a striking piece of metalwork, although exactly how it is made is somewhat of a mystery. There is a gilded and embossed Art Nouveau feeling leaves and flowers, superimposed upon what I think is iron. The entire, piece which is a straight-edge and a page cutter (for cutting unseparated quarto or octavo pages, etc., in a printed book), measures 11 7/8" in length. On the center of the front is the coat of arms of Sweeden. Although the piece shows wear, the condition is good, and the d ...click for details

click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 $525.00
A magnificent Kutani vase, in the vibrant greens, reds, blues, and gilt highlights that those of us who love Japanese ceramics are so fond of. It measures 12" in height, and is 3 1/2" square at the rim. Remarkably, it is unmarked, but just remarkably, it is in mint condition. I cleaned several decades of gunk off the top and was amazed at what I found! Fanciful children play on two sides, while two alternate sides have lush blue and red flowers in a deep jade green ground. This piece i ...click for details

click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 $295.00
It is stunning that although each of these lion bookends is hand-carved in wood (I think oak) and are not molded or cast. Each depicts the "Lion of Lucerne" which commemorates the death of Swiss soldiers guarding Marie Antionette in 1792. The sculpture by Bertel Thorwaldsen was unveiled in 1822, and has been the continuing subject of artists ever since, making a highly appropriate souvenir of Switzerland. Measuring 7 1/2" long and 5" high, these carved bookends (weighted for ...click for details

American Walnut Folk Art Watch Holder, c. 1880 Catalogue: Antiques: Instruments and Implements: Timepieces: Pre 1900 item# 822213
click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 $485.00
Now here is the story I got on this piece: hewn of American walnut, this folk art piece was carved by a Michigan furniture craftsman in the last quarter of the Nineteenth Century. It seems to be a watch holder (behind the antlers) with space for the items in a man's pocket, watch chain, change etc. The French call these a vide poche. But the maker may have had something else in mind. Nonetheless, this piece depicts an elk trying to climb out of an icy lake. It is a fascinating piece of Ameri ...click for details
