Comments on: Neo-Grec Pedestal Trifecta http://rarevictorian.com/2008/04/neo-grec-pedestal-trifecta.html The definitive Victorian antique furniture destination Thu, 19 Apr 2012 22:07:52 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v= By: woodwright http://rarevictorian.com/2008/04/neo-grec-pedestal-trifecta.html/comment-page-1#comment-189 woodwright Wed, 30 Apr 2008 04:57:11 +0000 http://rarevictorian.com/?p=348#comment-189 Looks like a bargain if they don't exceed their expected range. The three pedestals are all very similar, but all differ I believe. The center pedestal has an oval top (the 2 outside pedestals have round tops). The 2 round tops have different plaques and the one on the left does not have the incising in the base (unless one is showing a front view, and the other is a back view and they actually are the same only turned differently) - all else looks identical. Neal has several great lots in this auction. A few that I thought were unique and caught my eye were: <a href="http://cgi.liveauctions.ebay.com/194-American-Aesthetic-Ladys-Desk-and-Side-Chair_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ28221QQihZ017QQitemZ270229314256QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW " rel="nofollow">(an ebonized ladies desk)</a>, <a href="http://cgi.liveauctions.ebay.com/139-Rosewood-Grained-Etagere-Mitchell-Rammelsberg_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ28221QQihZ017QQitemZ270229314017QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW " rel="nofollow">(Rosewood Grained Etegere)</a>, <a href="http://cgi.liveauctions.ebay.com/969-An-American-Rococo-Carved-Walnut-Settee_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ28221QQihZ018QQitemZ280218733969QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW" rel="nofollow"> (unique laminated Walnut settee attr. to meeks)</a>, also the music cabinet you featured and 2 Mahogany half testers among several other nice lots. Should be a good auction. woodwright Looks like a bargain if they don’t exceed their expected range. The three pedestals are all very similar, but all differ I believe.
