$30.00Myrtlewood Mirror Candlestick Holder Made in USA
The Myrtlewood mirror candlestick holder is a wonderful addition to brighten a hallway or entryway.
This nice Myrtlewood mirror candlestick holder was made in Coos Bay, Oregon USA. The ‘House of Myrtlewood’ was established in 1929 and still in business today. The original stickers are still attached.

This tree is peculiar from other evergreens due to its tiny white blossom that appears annually. The Myrtlewood tree grows slowly, making accessible old growth more scarce.
Finished with high-gloss lacquer, this Myrtlewood mirror candlestick holder is in like-new condition. It measures 15½” long, 7½” wide and fits standard-size taper candles. Estimated circa 1950 – 1980. Made in USA.

$40.00Pair of Vintage Couroc Inlaid Wood and Brass Butterfly Dishes
Couroc plate and bowl made of satin black Phenolic, impervious to alcohol and boiling water (according to the stickers on the seats). Phenolic is a very durable, nice looking resin which pool balls are made of.
Couroc formed this resin into beautiful decorative objects. The inlay was done by hand using woods, metals, shells and coins. Then it was fused it into the phenolic. It was a great product, the inlaid decor will stay in these inlaid wood and brass butterfly dishes for at least a million years…really… it will never degrade. The butterflies were inlaid with wood, shell and brass.
Signs of wear include some very unobservable scratches, and some patina formed on the brass. The patina can be cleaned off to produce bright and shiny brass, but most people like to keep the patina intact.
The Couroc brass and butterfly dishes include a bowl and a plate. The bowl measures 8″ round, 1½” tall. The plate has four molded-in little feet and measures 8½” square and ½” tall. Both retain original stickers. Made in USA.

Beautiful huge 15½” round retro vintage centerpiece trivet made in the 1970s or earlier. We’ve dated this piece via identifying an exact look-a-like shown on a scary Christmas episode of Tales From the Crypt starring Joan Collins in 1972. An insane Santa kills her in the same living room in which she has just killed her husband. On the table, beneath a large white vase, sits a centerpiece trivet just like this one. lol.
This is a very large centerpiece trivet meant to be part of a decor focal point. It was hand-made with solid oak and hundreds of hand-placed inlaid tiles. The base has three sturdy rubber feet that elevate it ½” above the surface and protect the furniture beneath it.
It’s in great condition. All the tiles are present and snug. The wood is whole. Some scratching to the varnish is seen on the center wood ring. The rim shows a bit of staining, slightly darker than the wood, on one area where it looks like moisture sat. Measures 15½” round, weighs 4½ lbs.
