Just showing off my desk. Itβs a beautiful hunk of Hungarian oak, previously a farm house table. Itβs used on a daily basis and so just giving it a fresh coat of wax to keep up with its maintenance.3yr β vintiquers β r/Antiques

Pricked up this box at a flea market. Turns out is a fantastic quality Napoleonic boulle box. Then I repaired it π2yr β vintiquers β r/ThriftStoreHauls
Before and after - I knew there was some beauty underneath that paint!4yr β vintiquers β r/Antiques
This curio is known as a curse tablet. Curse tablets were inscribed strips of lead, with an iron nail piercing it. They are typically roman or Grecian. This piece has hair clamped between the folds, indicating that this may be a love spell. Thinking to contact a museum on this one.4yr β vintiquers β r/Antiques
My latest box. I believe that this belonged to John Scott Haldane, a Scottish physician who actually invented the first respirator. Zinc lined it also has the carriage label from its peninsula and oriental steam boat journey.4yr β vintiquers β r/Antiques
A work in progress. French, Iβm told boulle work. Brass, mother of Pearl and tortoise shell. Honestly itβs been a fiddly, annoying job but itβs getting there!4yr β vintiquers β r/Antiques
Sometimes refurbishing antiques can be thrilling - to uncover original features and to correct some wrong-doings is so satisfying!4yr β vintiquers β r/Antiques

Was advised you lot might like this. I took this photo on a recent visit to Lyme Park, UK. This is a Victorian hunting lodge known as The Cage, on a large estate.3yr β vintiquers β r/AbandonedPorn
I have a few of these and decided to freshen them up. What do people think: better before or after?2yr β vintiquers β r/Antiques
Old beliefs. Some people believed that your ailments could be transferred to certain items like this by wishing it away and paying to whichever God - sticking the coin into the wood as payment. Remove the coin and you take the ailment!3yr β vintiquers β r/interestingasfuck
Loving this victorian apothecary box! Possibly used as a pull out box based on the marks underneath and the handle on the front. Tapioca.3yr β vintiquers β r/Antiques
I found 91 antique smoking pipe bits π now to figure out what to do with them to make them saleable!2yr β vintiquers β r/ThriftStoreHauls
