$15.00
From an estate this is a vintage kettle style table cigarette lighter and ashtray/holder with black screw on handles. Both pieces are signed ASR and from the late 1940s. Lighter is working but needs fluid as the flame dies out quickly. See photo. Size of each piece is a little less that 5″ East to West from tip of handle to opposite end on kettle edge. The lighter is 3″ tall and the ashtray/holder is 2 1/4″ tall. Both pieces have some wear and are starting to show signs of pitting.

RARE Antique 1914 Bronze and Copper Orig Elks Lodge Pendant Wall Fixture
Originally from an Elk's Lodge in New York City this is a very rare and hard to find antique 1868 to 1914 Elks Hanging Pendant Fixture for wall, foyer or above doorway. I understand that very, very few of these exist today. The elk is made of solid bronze (NOT plated) and the back is solid copper (not plated). The chain is original. The insignia of the state of NY is prominently applied to the front. Size without the chain is 8" across in diameter. Depth is 4 1/2" from the tip of the antler to the back of the base. The back has a lot of age wear oxidation and patina which could be polished down to the copper. The front has an applied painted finish that is wearing off. The back has a lot of age patina. Other than this it is excellent. No dent or dings. No damage or repair. Sits flat on table without a wobble. Still all even. This piece would be lovely stripped down to its original bronze and copper. A great, authentic, original item for an advanced Elks collector.

Antique Sterling Silver Travel Clock World War 1 1919 Black Starr Frost
This is an antique Black, Starr , Frost sterling silver travel alarm clock presented to a naval officer by his staff in 1919. All of their initials/monograms are shown on the top as they were engraved by the Black, Starr , Frost jeweler. The case has a carved Greek Key design on the border and the inside has a hammered design. Hallmarked and marked Black, Starr , Frost. Clock is 15 jeweled, J.C. Tava, Swiss. The officer to which this was presented had the initial CMD as you see in the center cartouche on the front along with the 1919 year date of presentation. Size of case is 3 1/2" by 2 3/4" by 5/8' deep. The inside holds its original Black, Starr 8 day alarm clock which is no longer working. Jeweler says it needs a spring but the rest of the mechanism looks fine. The case is excellent condition. You can hear the loud snap as it closes securely in place and it stays closed. From an estate and not polished. It has one small scratch on the front. Weight is 219.1 grams which includes the clock. As you know, Black Starr , Frost were exclusive, expensive silversmiths in the early 1900s. They used very thick, high quality silver in their products and were competitors of Tiffany , Co. This is a most unusual estate find for any World War 1, clock or antique sterling silver collection. Completely original.

Mid Century Georges Rival French Streetscape Oil Painting
****Colors are much deeper, darker and stronger than photo. Actual is more well-defined than photo. This is an original, signed Georges Rival French streetscape oil painting from an estate and in its original frame. Size of frame is 32" tall North to South by 25" wide across East to West. The frame has some old white paint drops on it. The painting is 25" North to South by 17 1/2" East to West. This is the measurement of what you actually see within the frame. One will occasionally see the mid century Georges Rival seascape paintings but the French streetscape seems to be a little more unusual and harder to find.
There is some general age crackling and one white paint chipped spot. I have seen on line that paint chipping is somewhat common with Rival works due to the thickness of paint application and nature of the painting. Other than this, it is in excelelnt condition. No tears, damage or other paint chips. The colors are deep and strong; actual is a little darker than photo.
This is a lovely painting by a well known mid century artist for your collection.
