Antique Italian Giltwood Trumeau Mirror with Harbor Scene Oil Painting, C. 1780
Located in Dallas, TX
This Italian trumeau mirror, hand-carved circa 1780, features a 20 ½” H x 38” W mirror set beneath a maritime oil painting. The giltwood frame has angular protrusions in the upper corner, each filled with a small, raised floret. An egg-and-dart border graces the edges of the frame, interrupted by stepped-out plinths at the bottom corners. Both the mirror pane and the painting are surrounded by bead and reel motifs.
The wonderfully executed painting depicts a bustling harbor filled with vessels from three different countries. A majority of the crafts feature English flags, while there is one from the Netherlands, with the third representation being a flag from the nation of Catalonia, which would later become an autonomous state in Spain. The blue sky, filled with white fluffy clouds, provides good weather for the numerous boats and ships navigating the choppy waters. Very mountainous terrain can be seen in the background, with a white lighthouse and a blue roof on the shore. In front of the highlands is tall Romanesque architecture comprised of several niches, transoms, and bricked columns topped with flowing greenery. Several men are gathered on the shore, carrying cargo to be loaded into boats approaching the harbor. Our Italian trumeau mirror with harbor scene oil painting...

18th Century Irish Georgian Cork Sideboard
Located in Dallas, TX
Presenting a gorgeous and very rare 18th century Irish Georgian Cork Sideboard of lovely neat proportions.
Made in Ireland during the George III Era, circa 1790 and most likely made in the Southern City of Cork.
A STUNNING Irish provincial piece from the Georgian Era!
Made of solid mahogany, probably imported from Cuba and the secondary woods are oak (as one would expect). Beautiful dovetailing on the inside of the drawers.
The ‘hints’ that this is in fact an ‘Irish’ piece are numerous. The ‘scallop shell’ on the center of the back gallery is unmistakably an Irish Georgian signature. The scalloped fans beneath either side of the central drawer are likewise an Irish signal. The shape, design and style is entirely consistent with similar pieces made in Cork at the end of the 18th Century.
It has it’s original brasses which is fantastic. Lions Head Ring drawer pulls and stunning urn keyhole covers/escutheons.
It has a solid gallery back splat (with central Scallop) and on both sides this ends in curved and carved scroll ends. Beneath the back splat their is a grooved plank section for holding plates etc upright.
The server/counter top area is edged and banded with a carved rope style edging.
The mid section consists of 3 drawers and 2 doors.
The piece sits on 6 legs 4 to the front and 2 to the rear. The front legs are pillars starting at the top with an acanthus style scroll … extending down to another scroll carving directly above the reeded and fluted legs. The 2 rear legs do not have the same fluting detail.
The 2 side doors open to reveal a simple one shelf storage area. One probably held a lead lined cellarette at one time.
The piece is in excellent condition for it’s age and use. There are some minor aging cracks on the counter top on the left hand side. A small loss of molding to the right lower door. No original keys but we are getting replacements made.
Bought in Surrey, England in 1999 by a Private Texas Collector and shipped to Texas. We have the original ‘sales invoice’ and the dealer sold it as a “Regency Mahogany Sideboard circa 1820’and told her that it was an English piece, for the sum of 3,400 GBP. Not only did the dealer not recognize the obvious ‘Irish’ signs...

Reclaimed 18th Century French Wardrobe Doors, Set of 4
Located in Mckinney, TX
This set of four antique wardrobe doors, reclaimed from a country manor in France, exudes timeless character. Each door showcases a 2-panel design with raised panels framed by grooved and beveled trim, emphasizing traditional craftsmanship. The weathered blue-gray paint has worn gracefully over time, revealing a rich patina that adds depth and charm to the wood.
Originally used to enclose built-in cupboards, these doors are a wonderful way to introduce a sense of history and authenticity into a modern home. Perfect for creative reuse, they offer both practicality and a glimpse into the past.
Salvaged from a country home in France, 18th century.
The exterior of the doors features time-worn blue-gray paint with areas of natural wood beneath, while the opposite sides are natural wood with one door bearing the original blue-gray paint.
The doors would be best installed to enclose a built-in cupboard or work well with sliding barn door hardware...

Pair of Circa 1750 Walnut Wood Entry Doors from Spain
Located in Dallas, TX
Spanish furniture and architecturals of the 18th century, such as this pair of walnut wood entry doors, were highly influenced by French stylings. Hand-carved circa 1750, the doors feature deep, sinuous moldings, reminiscent of the curvaceous motifs seen during the reign of Louis XV. The amazing doors have a rich brown patina that accentuates the charm of the carvings, which are also enhanced by the visible screws used to join the pieces of walnut wood.
Comprised of five carved panels per door, each carving is similar: a rough rectangle with rounded ends and barbed counter curves. The three smaller panels are orientated horizontally, surrounding the two larger and vertically arranged panels. A thickly scrolled bronze pull can be seen on each door, also functioning as door knockers (the door on the right has commensurate wear from the pull striking the wood). Because these Spanish entry doors...

18C English Chippendale Shepherds Crook Armchair
Located in Dallas, TX
Presenting an absolutely stunning and original 18C english chippendale shepherds crook armchair.
Made in England circa 1780-1800 of walnut, this ‘period’ chair is simply Gorgeous in it’s Originality!
It is still covered in it’s original needlepoint/tapestry upholstery with neo-classical elements of a Greek or Roman Goddess sitting holding a staff on the back splat and floral motiff’s elsewhere.
What makes this piece Truly Original is the fact that the needlepoint appears to have been signed by the original owner/maker of the tapestry and it appears to be the family name of “Tancret”.
The arm rests have the most glorious ‘shepherd’s crook’ twists and turns.
The central base section has what appears to be heavily carved Prince of Wales Plumes, signifying the Regency Era.
The knees of the 2 front legs have the most amazingly carved acanthus relief decoration and the 2 front legs end in the best example of ball and claw feet you are ever likely to see.
The back legs also have some interesting detail as the feet are platformed or hooved.
Overall, the piece is in great condition for it’s age and use. There are no major tears or holes in the original tapestry. There is some discoloration but that is to be expected with a piece this old.
There is a very small piece of the central front medallion (bottom left as you look) missing, but it is not noticeable and does not detract from the piece.
One small stain on the back.
Gorgeous natural patina to the wood.
Provenance: From a Wealthy Estate in Kentucky/Tennessee
Condition: Very good. See full description.
Dimensions: 44? tall, 28? wide and 27? deep
Seat height of 18.5? with seat depth of 17.5? and interior seat width of 22.5?
Armrests are 26.25? Tall
The vast movement of people that followed the Norman Conquest of England in 1066 brought the Tancret family name to the British Isles. Tancret comes from the ancient Norman given name Tancred. The Tanksley variant is indeed rare. However, this name traces its origin to Roger Tankerlayman who was listed in Yorkshire in 1387.
Because of this political and religious unrest within English society, many people decided to immigrate to the colonies. Families left for Ireland, North America, and Australia in enormous numbers, traveling at high cost in extremely inhospitable conditions. The New World in particular was a desirable destination, but the long voyage caused many to arrive sick and starving. Those who made it, though, were welcomed by opportunities far greater than they had known at home in England. Many of these families went on to make important contributions to the emerging nations of Canada and the United States. Analysis of immigration records indicates that some of the first North American immigrants...
