Mr. Norbert Schickel Dear Mr. Schickel: Listed below are works of art accumulated around the world for the main hall of an Italian Villa to be enjoyed by people of taste and money. A beautifully carved oak English mid 17th Century Bible Box on a latter table, 17th Century. This type of box was used to store Bibles and other valuable books. A typical adaptation of an 18th Century Mexican hand crafted mirror in tin. A Portuguese planter made up of original 18th Century Portuguese tiles which are in good color. A pair of original 17th Century side chairs in walnut and tooled leather with hand crafted nails. The leather seats had disintegrated so we have replaced them with velvet. A modern copy, in tapestry, of an 18th Century Dutch painting of a basket of flowers. A pair of brackets for over buffet, antique fragments of an 18th Century Italian chandelier, now adapted to serve as sconces. A sideboard, actually American about 1830 but so in the classic Italian Renaissance style that it was easy to add those touches. A pair of candlesticks hand crafted in a typical 17th Century style. A modern copy of an elegant heraldic medieval tapestry in a blaze of color. A pair of Chinese vases, 18th Century, modern copies of Kang Shi. A pair of gold elegantly carved panels from a scrumptious 18th Century French Carriage. A pair of gigantic Italian Renaissance church candlesticks in original paint, probably early 18th Century. A large blue and white Delph plate. It is probably early 19th Century. A pair of Italian pottery caryatids, copy of Renaissance, turned into wall sconces. A pair of modern adaptions tables of a typical Italian Renaissance table with hand forged steel stretchers.
