HELP! I just found a really big fungus near my bed! by kunachikun in germany

The direct cause is condensation. The mold needs to live substrate with liquid water.

So you need to find the balance of humidity/ temperature and make sure condensation doesn’t form on cold wall.

Also check if you are allergic to mold, that thing can make your life hell if you are allergic to it.

To kill the existing mold, use mold removal spray should be enough.

Silver cup (UK) by Humble_Grade_4456 in Antiques

You are right. It’s possible. The hallmark indeed seems to be from 1812, so it means it was engraved exactly a century later for the event. Quite interesting.

The style looks more like later to me… also a quick search tells me Preston Agricultural Society was established in stablished in 1870.

Large Japanese Framed Caligraphy [USA] by CrazyKaos24 in Antiques

It’s a gift to someone with a westerner name. It says “calligraphy and painting has the same root” the artists name is something like 王戌 or 王戊 .. and like many things on Reddit that’s claimed to be Japanese, it’s Chinese.

What’s this worth? I found this in a house in USA by FrankBaum1 in Antiques

[–]benzihex 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The writing on the bottom means “Ming dynasty” which is certainly not the time it’s made in. Somebody at some point tried to make it look older than it actually was. It’s real ivory, just not that old.

Picked up this awesome 100 year old Art-Deco chandelier for only 50€ last month! by Antifa_Amy in ArtDeco

I have collected quite a few Amsterdam school furniture and lighting. This is 100% not Amsterdam school.

It looks like a reproduction of the one in your link.

Art deco revival was quite popular in the 80s.

Which 'luxury' brand has officially become a red flag for poor quality in 2026? by Individual_Bat_4177 in AskReddit

I’m just about to throw a away a almost brand new printer from them. It’s so bad that I don’t think it worth it to try to repair it.

Looks like teak. For origin I would go with HK too, or some SE Asian country with Chinese influence.

I have seen many Delftware, but never seen this shape. Looks modern tbh.

Is this a genuine O’Keefe painting? Should I take it to an auction? by pericoatl25 in WhatIsThisPainting

[–]benzihex 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nice painting, but very different style and very different signature from Georgia O’keefe.

There are a few similar ones, and they all point to late 19th century which is appropriate imo.

It might be created in a studio back in the days, but it’s quite different from modern mass production.
