Featured day of chazzering

a few things i picked up from the thrifts on thursday...chirpy

think i like that strange blue tinted glass the best (made in italy mark under)

figure thinking republic ish (china impressed stamp)

unusual match striker ?

costume brooch

oh and a handheld karaoke microphone (that was supposed to be a present for someone..... but its quite good(Fun) though......

and some other b & ps

 

forgot about the painting...........would be surprised if it wasn't an amateur/college type piece......but mad enough to buy

" do you mean the painting or you charlie?"

 

to me he looks a little bit new wave david tennant

 

....on the Scottish front........a new (very unexpected) episode of two doors down this years after the death of one of its creators

so..........christmas this year.......made

 

Very nice Charlie. Are those parfait glasses.?

 

Yes I think it does look like him.

 

Thanks, thats a new term on me pearls, but looks good to me

 

also a bit bill nighy as well

 

Nice finds, charlie. This type of brooch usually has real jade and coral, and this looks the real deal too.

Not David Tennant imo, but another actor. Can't think who now, but I'm sure someone will recognize him.

 

Robert Knepper?

 

Awesome thanks Aj, was hoping you'd say that the whities look mop so coral is great to know

 

Agree with AJ that the brooch may be a very nice find if you paid a costume price. According to the orientation of the pin on the back, it was designed to go this way:



I thought the painting was Frankenstein's monster in a suit.

I would have called the blue stemware sundae glasses. I think of parfait glasses as being shaped more like champagne glasses, with a narrower, taller bowl.

 

i think thats what my ex girlfiends father called me when i came to pick her up for the prom

the only other person i can think of is the singer from the damned

......problem being though............doesn't look anything like him

 

Brooch may not be gold, though, there were several UK companies who set coral and jade in costume settings, with that filigree too. I've got some (susprise. Not.) Worth testing though.

Orange vases are Empoli. Blue sundaes fairly recent, I've forgotten who.

That oxblood looking cylinder thing is old and Chinese.

As an aside, last Sunday, nine carat gold studs. Two quid.

 

I don't expect it is, although it is a thought to check. Like you, I have seen these as costume but with genuine jade and coral.

 

Looks like a dead or zombie type Nicolas Cage

 

yeah i will defo check...but wasn't why i bought, could tell it was jade so was hoping nice costume

the materials (as in the jade mop and coral) made me think chinese (like those little bonsai tree ornaments)
