This very delicate, nicely tinted ambrotype is from Australia, which shares its similarity to ambros made in England during the 1850's. A lovely redhead with freckles and fair skin poses beside a highly tinted tablecloth and ornate studio chair. A beautiful young woman wears an off the shoulder dress with tasteful blueish-green tinting. She is protected by a Union Case with a few stains to the outside of the housing and a few small chips. Berg 3-103G2 (R) $300

A cherub of a child is captured on this ruby ambrotype. Not only is this a fantastic, relaxed posed of a child sitting in a prop chair, but the tinting on her dress is beautifully executed. A few mat abrasions & a small scratch to the center-right are the only imperfections to the glass plate. The ambro is housed appropriately inside the Berg case 1-104 (C) "The Calmady of Children" by engraver H.W. Hayden. There is one spot on the back of the case & a few small chips on the corners. $200

A sweet child sits on top of the table inside the photographers studio. I like how the plaid attired child places her hand softly on top of the backside of the chair. This image is of an exceptionally sweet faced kid in this sixth plate ambro. The image resides in a Berg 3-183 Union case in minty condition. $145

I love the dress and lovely face of this young woman as she gazes off camera. A super quality ambrotype with nice coral colored tinting to her cheeks, lips and jewelry. A very unusual print for a dress of the time and an interesting hair decoration adorn her outfit. Included in full case with original hinge. The exterior of the case has seen better days, but still displays the image nicely. $95
