Benedict Studios jewel box with original satin liner. Although unsigned this is unquestionably by Benedict and was probably done shortly after Harry Benedict moved the Onondaga Metal Shops to his building in East Syracuse. I have a number of pieces that came from the same estate in Syracuse, all unsigned. This measures 5" tall and is 6" square and produced from hand hammered copper with brass ball feet and finial.

Onondaga Metal Shops produced handcrafted decorative pieces very similar to Gustav Stickley, probably more so than Benedict Studios. The depth of the hammering and repousse' is very impressive. This plaque is not in the same condition as the Benedict piece I have listed, the patina is warn and there is a small drill hole made for hanging however it is still a remarkable piece.

OMS or Benedict fire place cover. Originally this was a cover that fit into the opening of a fireplace that measured 26 1/2" square. I had an oak frame made so that it was free standing. It is hammered copper with and hammered iron frame and now measures 37" tall x 30 1/4" wide x 13" deep. This would look great in front of a large fireplace when not in use. $3000
Gustav Stickley nest of trays. This is quite unusual and in pretty good condition. It has seen a bit of cleaning over the years but it still has nice color and is an interesting table top piece. It would be useful as a coaster set. 4" wide by 5" tall and the diameter of the trays are 3 3/4". $550
