Antique Frame French Book Journal Display/Painting 13th-19th Century
Located in Doha, QA
This rare and remarkable piece begins with a backdrop composed of beautifully, handwritten love letters from the 1800s. There are three scrolls made up of additional love letters, sealed with red wax from the 19th century scattered around two antique books. The open book on the left, was written during the time of the 30 Year War, 1618-1648 in France, when the Treaty of Westphalia changed the map of Europe. During this period, the church attempted to begin marriage registrations and within this written relic, there are numerous marriage entries with names and dates. The book is bound by animal hide from the 12th-13th century and when it is unfolded, it becomes a giant piece of parchment filled with faded ink handwriting in mysterious Old French. The closed book on the right is from Louis XIII - XVI era and is bound in antique animal hide parchment from the 12th-13th century. When the animal hide is unfurled, the inside is adorned in faded handwritten ink in peculiar Old French. Inside the journal is elegante handwriting in ink but it is difficult to identify the cryptic content. This journal was possibly written by an unknown noble figure or bishop. Settled below the journals, is an antique, intricate silver feather ink...

Antique Col Ebenezer Crafts Publick House Hotel Advertisement Sign 56"
Located in Dayton, OH
Rare antique salvaged Col. Ebenezer Crafts' Publick House of Sturbridge, Massachusetts, est. 1771 sign. Wood construction hand painted in white with black and white lettering around a blue, green and gold emblem portraying a Revolutionary soldier (presumably Colonel Crafts himself) on a gray horse. Twisted wrought iron hanging brackets and eye hooks still attached. A more recent edition of this sign can be seen outside the Publick House in Sturbridge today.
"A member of Historic Hotels of America since 2018, the Publick House Historic Inn was originally established on the eve of the American Revolution. Colonel Ebenezer Crafts specifically constructed the inn during the late 18th century, who had originally planned to go into the ministry after his time at the Yale Divinity School. Upon the suggestion of his college friend, Joshua Payne, Crafts applied to a parish in Sturbridge, Massachusetts. Payne was chosen over him, though, and friendship subsequently splintered. Crafts went back to Pomfret, Connecticut, where he married and began a life in the military as an homage to his father. But following the loss of two children, Crafts' wife, Mehitabel, asked Crafts to leave Pomfret for a new beginning. Payne reached out and offered Crafts the chance to return to Sturbridge as a means of rekindling their friendship. While visiting, Crafts fell in love with a plot of land that flanked the town green. Learning that it belonged to a local resident named Dr. Elisha Marcy, Crafts sought to acquire the parcel for himself. Dr. Marcy nevertheless refused Crafts’ constant overtures to sell the property. Undeterred, Crafts ultimately challenged the doctor to a game of “cards,” with Marcy’s landholdings used for collateral.
The colonel managed to win the bet and immediately moved his family north to Sturbridge. With help provided by Payne and his parishioners, Crafts began to construct a massive home on the lot. But Crafts’ designed his new residence to serve as more than just a home. On the contrary, Crafts had actually converted a portion of the structure to function as roadside inn. His new building stood two stories in height and was set atop a foundation based on a central hallway. The building’s ground floor featured several public rooms and a large kitchen, while 13 guestrooms resided upstairs for overnight guests. Some of the rooms on the first floor provided specific services to Crafts’ guests, too. There was a general store in what is now the Pumpkin Room; a men’s smoking room (now the Card Room) for daily gatherings, news sharing, and gossip; and a Ladies Parlor connected right next door. The kitchen, which is now the Tap Room, held a huge fireplace...

Edwardian neoclassical style sterling silver trophy cup & cover
Located in London, GB
Elegant urn-shaped silver trophy cup and cover in the restrained and graceful neoclassical Adam style with long sweeping handles decorated with a fine thread pattern decoration. Bands of thread decoration surround the body and the spreading silver base is similarly adorned. The silver trophy's cover follows similar sweeping lines and is surmounted with an urn-shaped finial.
Made in the early 20th century by one of the most celebrated silversmiths, Charles Stuart Harris, this trophy has been crafted in a good quality gauge of silver and is perfect for engraving.
The neoclassical motifs seen in this trophy, reflect the classical architectural designs of the Greek and Roman empires. Classical designs included columns, pediments, Greek key patterns, acanthus leaves, urns and festoons of fruit and flowers.
The Adam style is a neoclassical style of architecture and interior design that found its niche from the late 1760s in upper and middle-class residences in England, Scotland, Russia and the USA and named after Scottish architect William Adam and his sons, of whom James Adam...
