Pair French Deco Louis XV Style Two-arm Candelabra Catalogue: Vintage Arts: Furnishings: Lighting: Pre 1940 item# 830316
click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 $695.00
Manufactured in France, c. 1920-1930, this green patina wrought iron candelabra measure 15” high by 13 ½” wide. There is a central, applied gilt quatrefoil decoration, and five dangling glass prisms on each candelabrum. They are unwired, and I am selling the pair as-found, shabby-chic but charming. Good but used condition, France. c. 1930

click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 $1250.00
In brilliant blue, orange, yellow green and yellow, this faience elephant was made in France expressly for Tiffany and Company, I am guessing ca. 1970. It measures 16 1/2" in length, 9 1/2" in height, and 5" deep. It is in excellent condition, and can accommodate a floral arrangement in the square opening on the "howdah" on top. It is in excellent condition.

click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 $850.00
This shagreen gaming caddy, or chip holder, holds about 130 mother of pearl gaming chips (perhaps a few are missing), and stands, to the tip of the handle, 3" high. It is 7 1/2" across and 5" wide. The condition, with the exception of some wear to the underside, is excellent. All the fad in the Art Deco era, this piece is a rare find, indeed.

Folk Art Hand Potted Uncle Sam Toby Jug, c. 1940 Catalogue: Vintage Arts: Decorative Art: Ceramics: American: Pottery: Pre 1940 item# 439225
click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 $295.00
This stunning piece of hand-potted, and glazed signed Americana, is a lively interpretation of none other than the classic Uncle Sam. The glazes which are themselves spirited colors and applications lend a sophisticated finess to this handsome piece. Made of a yellow-terra cotta clay, the color of the biscuit bleeds through the glaze in a few spots. The face is serious and striking. The hat is over-brimmed with stars. The markings on the bottom state "Designed by D. Clemini potted by DeBerg ...click for details

click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 $165.00, the two
Here we have two unusual floral arranging centerpiece frogs: two different ducks, perhaps a male and female mallard? They each measure approximately "6" long, and "6" high. Each is decorated in life-like color, in excellent condition and stamped "Made in Japan" -- Japan, c. 1950.

Longwy Signed R.Rizzi 37cm Charger Limited Edition Catalogue: Vintage Arts: Regional Art: Pre 1960 item# 817689
click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 $1000.00
With the flamboyant color we have come to expect from the Longwy factory, this limited edition charger glows. The mark indicates that it is #26 of 75 designed by the artist R. Rizzi, c.1950, and decorated by hand by (J.M.)J. Masson. My guess is that it is c. 1950. It is in excellent condition, and was recently acquired from a Washington, DC estate. It is 37 cm, 16" in diameter.

Standing 10 1/2" high, this male and female in deep aqua crackle glaze, are handsome Italian pottery chinoiserie figures made for the design import house of WONY in New York City. Although the base is marked "SB 55 WONY ITALY", similar figures were made by the potter Ugo Zaccagni, and Fantoni. As a bonus, each figure bears its original WoNY sticker. The chinese-like figures were all the rage in the 1950's and this was one of the favorite colors, along with Chinese red, chartre ...click for details

Having carved half-sails, and sailing on a foamy sea, is this diorama-like replica of the sailing ship "Marion Sprague". Written in pencil on the reverse is the inscription, "Marion W.

Wireless Cloisonne Plaque Mt. Fuji, Japan c. 1950 Catalogue: Vintage Arts: Regional Art: Asian: Japanese: Enamel: Pre 1950 item# 826758
click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 $475.00
In a frame measuring 21 3/4" x 17 1/2", this plaque depicting a stylized Mount Fujiyama, appears to be made of a wireless cloisonne, or perhaps just a seamless enamel, with a gilt flat enamel sky. The frame has fabric liner. The actual method of manufacture of this item is rather a mystery to me. Within the frame, the actual enamel piece measures 14" x 9". The enamel is flawless, while the gilt sky has a few rubbed marks on it. There is a signature/caption piece affixed to ...click for details
