Omgoodness, I watched a video of a young girl who found a strand of coral. She was so misinformed I want to.do a parody of it.

 

I saw a British antiques\auction show that showed a chunk of labradorite as an example of moonstone. It was enough to make a girl crawl through the screen and beat the researcher/producer about the head and shoulders. The auctioneer got it right, but someone else was asleep at the wheel.

 

Fabulous collection Marko ! I long ago put all my bits in glass cabinets . Dusting and cleaning them wasnt as fun as it used to be!

 

......... even your naughty bits ..??? .................

 

My curio cabinet is full!

 

Lovely!!!

 

Thank you all. I took donations over to my thrift. I saw this teapot not priced, so of course they Google lensed the stamp on the bottom and said they sell for $40 on Etsy, but I could have it for $15. I debated, but I liked it and it's for charity, so I bought it.

I was floored.



I picked up this Price Kensington teapot at Sunday's estate sale for $7.

Today's thift had this Haviland Limoges cake plate in the free box.

 

The plate is well worth the price.

 

lol!

 

I'm rather surprised at the price of the teapot, but then if it's to complete a dinner set or something it seems that the serving pieces command a good penny.

The Limoges cake dish is a handy item. I have one of a similar shape (and probably age) that I use to serve desserts, cheese and crackers, all sorts. And you can't beat the price!

 

Found this Persian silver box yesterday for $3.99, weighs about one pound.

 

OMG OMG....... I am so jealous... This is a dream find!

Did you rob a museum ??

Great find !!!!!!!!!!

 

A pound of silver for the price of a cup of coffee...whoo.

 

Wowser, congrats anund, that is an amazing find

 

Went to a Mother's Day yard sale and picked up a small box of coins containing an 1853 French coin, and, an autograph collection of a member of the band Limp Bizkit.

 

For a split second I thought you said you picked up a member of Limp Bizkit.

 

That is a stunning work of art.

 

Me too!

 

Uh no, lol
