Featured few cool charity shop bits

hi folks

found a few cool lil bits and bobs in the chazzers today. think the 2 vintage who patches were the best find, guessing about 70's

the cross & necklace/pendant are both costume. but thought the cross quite cool. glass cabs, not sure of origin/age ?
the nephrite pendant and chain are goldplated, but was cheap and thought it was cool to have the vintage box with it

1 of a set of 4 japanese deep orange and dragon gilded teacups/saucers. mark looks kutani-ish. but haven't seen this type before

any thoughts or info on anything appreciated

 

Eiraku mark?
https://www.gotheborg.com/qa/kutani.shtml
"Eiraku kin established by Eiraku Wazen, Eiraku's style used a basic red coating and a decorative gold pattern."

 

2 of many variants of Eiraku marks:

First character is identical in most Eiraku marks, but the second differs a lot.

 

awesome help thanks buddy, looks right. never heard of Eiraku before but like the look of it

 

Like the NZ Greenstone & The Who patches are fab-now you just need a vintage Lambretta cheeep !

 

i'd be very surprised if they hadn't been on at least one parka at sometime

 

The patches sure. Not certain about the pendant or the cross. They'd have looked a little odd.

 

thinking the cross might be italian?, seems that kind of glass anyway

 

I think the cross could be British, sort of like Miracle jewellery but different. The glass could be Czech, or British.

 

thanks Aj, think i've got some beads in that type of glass somewhere, so might make a good marriage

 

Miracle Jewelry ?-

yeah its definitely got that look about it, so probably a similar time frame. think miracle used real agates though, unless it was agate glass

 

Miracle used glass, but this isn't Miracle imo. I do think it is from the UK, it is that style.

 

This is faux sorta-kinda turquoise simulant glass, if it's not acrylic. They used both. If it was here I'd be thinking Sarah Coventry or the like.
