This page will include some of the infrequent base metal objects, glassware, prints and furniture that we get in. Commonly found base metal objects could be made of copper or its alloys of brass and bronze, the tin-based pewter alloy, iron or steel. The smaller items listed on this page can be shipped; pieces of furniture and large framed prints will probably have to be picked up by the purchaser. If a piece is marked Hold it has been reserved by a customer,  if it is marked Paid we have received a check, and if it is marked Sold the transaction has been completed.
