Does anyone have Sicilian Bifara Fig Info? Italian Beefera?
Comments (12)Hmmm, so it is actually an Italian word that refers to the actual brebas and not the fig type. Very interesting and thank you! So, would the word "Beefera" be the same meaning as "Bifara"? Depending what part of the boot Italians are from, there are so many different dialects that now it makes me wonder if Bifara and Beefera are the same meaning just spelled differently because of dialect differences. If only I could of retained the Italian my grandmother and family spoke when I was younger, I may have know this! LOL! So maybe there is no relation at all to Sicilian Bifara and Italian Beefera, and they only share the same type of breba habit and not the same type of fruit habit. I did see the Italian Beefera for sale from Adriano's Figs, but he only ships to Canada :( Maybe one day I will find it and can compare to the Sicilian Bifara just for fun. Again, very interesting info! I have read this forum for a long while, and just did not post much. But now I may start to come out of my shell and post more often! You guys are so knowledgable! Thank you so much! Christy...See MoreDoes anyone have info. as to...
Comments (6)Replacements Inc is easy to sell to but you won't get very much money. I have Old Imari and sold some duplicate pieces, and didn't get real market value. Ebay isn't scary, I think. Just place a reasonable estimate on your pieces. Ebay Canada has quite a bit for sale. I'd link but I can only do one link here. Or try a local consignment shop or dealer. Royal Crown Derby is a very fine china, and Blue Mikado is a great pattern, I think. If I didn't have so much china already, I'd be tempted. Here is a link that might be useful: Replacements...See MoreDoes anyone know or have info about these 2 antique chairs
Comments (1)I only see one chair. From the general style, it's one of the elaborate "Revival" chairs of the 1920s and 30s ... Jacobean Revival, Tudor Revival, Renaissance revival. Most of them were elaborately decorated mass-market pieces that used the decorative bits from the period they were reviving without much thought as to whether they fit or not. Your chair, for example, has the Rococo era C-shaped scrolling from one style and the twisted "barley sugar" spindles from another era and country. If they are sturdy, they are worth cleaning and reupholstering....See MoreDoes anyone have a good source for info on Adirondack style?
Comments (5)One possibility available at the Adirondack Museum store: http://www.adirondackmuseumstore.com/books-maps/museum-publications/adirondack-camps.html#.Vy0ZvDArLGg When you mention "the time period" which time period are you talking about? I think many think of a log cabin as an Adirondack style, but that is not the case. Your description of dark brown shingle siding and a green roof is more accurate. Another option is to do an image search for "Adirondack camps" in google search for some ideas....See More- 6 years ago
