Anri Tobacco Humidor with Nodding Smoker, c. 1920 Catalogue: Antiques: Decorative Art: Organics: Wood: Pre 1920 item# 526678
click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 $295
Here we have one of those delightful items that just "speaks to us". It is an Anri carved figural tobacco humidor, which depicts a smoker red-faced and in his cups leaning on the top of a barre. Lift him up, and the barrel opens, creating a space for tobacco. The head, on a swiveling neck, moves as the piece is moved. Accompanying this is the auction print out showing that it came from the estate of Fred MacMurray and June Haver.

Folk Art Colorful Bird Box: Southwest US c. 1900 Catalogue: Antiques: Decorative Art: Organics: Wood: Pre 1910 item# 284217
click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 $165.00
This strikingly fanciful hand-painted pencil box from the American Southwest, dates from the early years of the Twentieth Century. The birds, each marvelously and imaginatively colored, no doubt, flew around only in the creative artist's mind, but have landed on this luscious, naive mahogany pencil box. The box seems to be painted in think, uneven layers if enamel, and there is some rubbing to the surfaces. The box measures 8 5/8" x 4 3/4" by 1 1/4" high. There are two chips i ...click for details

Battersea style Enamel Box with Sampson Mk, c. 1850 Catalogue: Antiques: Decorative Art: Enamel: Pre 1900 item# 903852
click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 $525.00
I am always pleased to get these enamel boxes with the sampson "x" mark, because they are always legitimate. They are mid-Nineteenth Century copies of Eighteenth Century boxes, and 150 years old themselves. This one is in very good shape for a larger box 2" high, 3 1/4" Wide, and 2 1/2" deep - but there are always some issues with these, fragile items that they are. There is some crazing visible on the sides, none on the bottom and some on the lid with one contusion visib ...click for details

Old Paris Vase with Boy Light Bearer, c. 1870 Catalogue: Antiques: Decorative Art: Ceramics: French: Porcelain: Pre 1900 item# 880330
click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 $265.00
Standing 13" high, 5 1/2" in diameter, this striking Old Paris vase with a youth carrying a light in the reserve, is a striking plum red. Someone in its long, event filled century and a half has filled the bottom inside with plaster for weight (often items were weighted when put on mantles or shelves, so cats wouldn't breeze by and knock the piece off!). Condition is essentially good, with a spider crack on the underside, and a flaw in the making which is glazed and painted over o ...click for details

Austrian Porcelain Nodder & Dogs c. 1880 Catalogue: Antiques: Decorative Art: Ceramics: German: Porcelain: Pre 1900 item# 171917
click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 $255.00
This fascinating piece of Austrian porcelain features an oriental type nodder (head rotates, red tongue sticks out) holding a pair of dogs, and sitting next to a barrel which was probably intended to be a toothpick holder, or match holder. It measures 3 3/4" high and 3" wide. there is a variegated glaze with green blue and brown over the body of the piece, with a blue hat, and pinkish skin. This is a fascinating item, and it is miraculous that it has survived.

5 French Military Charms 14Kt Gold, c. 1850 Catalogue: Antiques: Decorative Art: Jewelry: French: Pre 1900 item# 333299
click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 $325.00
Hanging from a central gold loop, these five tiny military/infantry related charms are executed in beautiful detail. The consist of a sword 5/8" in length, a stiletto also 5/8" in length, a rifle 1 1/4", an ammunition purse--which opens and closes--1/4" long, and a hat, also 1/4" in length. Each piece is pendant on two small loops from the central loop. I believe these unmarked treasures to be German or French in origin. Condition is superb! It is amazing that such small ...click for details

Pair Minton Miniature Shakespeare Souvenir Mugs c 1870 Catalogue: Antiques: Decorative Art: Ceramics: English: Porcelain: Pre 1900 item# 769879
click for details		Green Lion Antiques 301-651-7195 $225.00 Pr.
Each depicting a scene of Shakespeare's birthplace, these two miniature commemorative mugs bear Minton and registry marks for the 1870's. Each miniature measures 1 1/2" in height. One bears a scene, I think, of the room where Shakespeare was born, and the other of the church in Stratford-upon-Avon, erroneously titled "grammer school". These small, originally inexpensive, were sold as souvenir items in the Nineteenth Century, where Shakespeare's fans already made pilgri ...click for details

Bright Beaded Flowers in Painted Box c. 1930 Catalogue: Popular Collectibles: Decorations: Pre 1940 item# 288467

The box measures 4 3/4" in length and 1 1/4" deep and 1 1/4"high. With the box and bouquet, the measurements are 6 1/2" long by 3 1/2" high. The floral, beaded decorations and the painted box are in excellent condition.

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
