We're business associates.

 

I was supposed to Swiffer, Windex, and dust today, but hubby knew the thrifts were calling me (I have been busy doing fundraising work for a few charities.) Here are a few of the things I got. I got 15% off at two places because I'm old.
Only $3, they sparkle mire than this, sterling

These lab-created sterling opal earrings were $4.

The sterling tiger's eye hoops were $2 less 15%.

 

The mid-century bamboo? newspaper/magazine holder was $15 less 15%.

Interesting print. The octopus lady is a stand-alone work by Victor Grasso. He is a local artist, but actually globally famous, in Cape May. I met him at a gallery exhibit I googled this, google lensed it, can't really find anything. I believe it's Julian Lennon as the scientist, may be a photocopy....$5 less 15%. Research is pointing to artist/musician John Frusciante....

 

I do have more costume to photograph, mostly modern things. The world is your oyster, say these pearls. Silver and sterling below, $3

And somebody was asleep at the switch. 14k screwbacks, cultured pearls, $5.

Saving the best for last, 14k diamond and pearl screwbacks.

 

That Victor Grasso work....Sinking

 

If memory serves, that's a bottle rack.

Thank you! And googling after you told me that, it's rattan.

It's taking me back to my youth. I have to put some Boones Farm Strawberry and Lancers Rose on it.

 

My mother in law had a similar magazine rack and she got it in the 1980s.

Empire/Karl Johan (Scandi Biedermeier) Center table lovely flame birch 1820-1850 $150



Karl Johan drop-leaf table mahogny and brass ca. 1830 $150

 

6 Karl Johan chairs in mahogny c. 1830-1850 $150



Lovely Biedermeier work/sidetable, high quality $100

 

does no one else want these , where you live ?
Specially that side table........it's stunning!

 

There is not much interest. Most people want minimalistic design, sad grey modern scandinavian designs. There is a market for this, but you have to "find" the customers. They usually dont find you.

 

well, you're finding top notch furniture alright !!!!!

 

Wait I can send you my leftover Riuniti Red!

 

That work table is fantastic. And you got it for less than what sad grey modern Scandinavian costs! Way back in '74, U saw a lot of white furnishings and some blue (rather like Wedgwood blue). Guess grey is the colour du jour!

 

Gray is one of my most-hated colors in decorating, right up there with mustard brown. (flush it already) I don't know how people can stand modern drab when there's all of this beautiful wood going begging.
