That is actually very plausible. Not sure about the support, that seems to be shaped for the figurines to stand and be displayed. It's the only position in which they are perfectly flat in all contacting points. The design however is possible to be imprinted the way you say. Can be pottery or...

I thank you for the resources, they are amazing! I know I've seen that support thingie somewhere before but I did a lot of research in my life, just can't put my finger on it.

Good morning, As the title says it, I'm trying to identify a few small stone carvings. This is for a friend, she got in possession of them and she is a researcher, so would like to identify them from a historical point of view (if any), rather from the financial value point of view. Maybe...

Thank you very much for the info. Yes, from my side styles are seen a bit differently. UK styles are not well known here.

Your are absolutely right. Seems this variant with leather insert with gold tooling is from the 40's. In rest, wooden parts are beech, the top and the bottom are some sort of ply, good quality though. One question still remains. I understand it's not a period piece, but what style does it...

This is PRECISELY what I was talking about, thank you so much!!! May I ask what paint did you use to finish it?

I did look but I searched for 'telephone bench' as per the suggestions here. As soon as I started to look for 'telephone table', I got results. Let me explain the other thing. At first I took your question as sarcasm. If it wasn't meant like that, I apologize. Being a novice and wanting to do...

After some extensive search I managed to find this: https://www.1stdibs.com/furniture/tables/side-tables/lovely-vintage-circa-1940s-green-leather-gold-leaf-single-drawer-side-table/id-f_36076982/ Legs are very similar, drawer, handle; they say it's in Victorian style.

It wouldn't be a problem to be from that period, I don't wish it to be vintage, just to get some information for it. I've scoured the internet and can't find anything. Shouldn't I be able to find lots of information if it were from the last 50-60 years? As I said, I'm not knowleadgeable in this...

I'm obviously interested because I work as a restorer and I want to learn to identify the styles. I even mentioned this in my earlier post. It's not from the 70's, the materials used to build it don't coincide with the period. And although the telephone bench seems very likely, this can as...

Here are the extra photos.

I thank you all very much, it is indeed a telephone bench. I will add more photos shortly and maybe you can extend the help in clarifying the period of the piece. Shame on me, I do restoration work but my style/period identification skills are very limited, although I started to read and learn...

Sorry for the poor quality. It's some sort of bench with a writing top to the left, a drawer underneath. Similar to those windows benches but my guesstimate is that it was used in a different part of the house.

Good day! I kindly ask your help in identifying the piece of furniture in the attached photo. Any kind of advice is appreciated. From how these pieces are called to an idea of age or where to get further info. I'm unable to research it because I don't know how they are called in English. Much...

Hi Keyvan, Thanks. I'd like to know the length of the screws marked here. From that I can get a picture of the length of the others. I'd like to buy the set, just need to make sure what I'm getting. Feel free to PM me, or here, as suits you. Much appreciated, Brad
