Indian Chief Motif Porcelain Humidor, American, circa 1900
Located in Incline Village, NV
Fine quality hand painted porcelain humidor is in excellent all original condition with no chips, repairs, or overpaint; nice bright crisp paint and detail. No mark, but definitely American, circa 1900 era. Note the detail to the Indian's face and his elaborate headdress. Native American Indians were especially attracted to tobacco and related products and relished the opportunity to pose for pictures on that topic; note cigar store "Indians", match safes, and humidors. This is a very desirable and item of tobacciana with the Indian subject matter and the attractive multicolored hand painted Indian chief with headdress, probably of note but I have not been able to accurately identify him; quite possibly "Big Bow" an Indian warrior who has been identified on other similar objects.

Vintage Pennsylvania Amish “Churn Dash” Hand-Stitched Cotton Quilt
Located in Barrington, IL
This beautifully hand-crafted Amish quilt, made in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania circa the mid-1900s, features the classic “Churn Dash” pattern—a beloved motif in American quiltmaking, symbolizing home, work, and tradition. Rendered in a joyful palette of lavender, turquoise, and pink, the design strikes a harmonious balance between bold geometry and gentle color.
Each fabric piece was carefully hand-cut and stitched with remarkable precision, showcasing the exceptional skill and dedication of its maker. True to Amish tradition, the quilt was constructed from materials readily available in the home—an inspired act of reuse that transformed everyday fabric into lasting art.
The result is a quilt that speaks not only to function but to deep cultural values: simplicity, resourcefulness, and quiet beauty. The fine craftsmanship and striking visual appeal make this piece a desirable collector’s item and a stunning candidate for wall display.
Please note: Some color distortion may occur in photos—refer to the video for the most accurate representation.
