Featured It's been a D'Orlan week

First off, I bought the bracelet from a local auction for peanuts. The auctioneer was bemused when I bounced about how much of a BARGAIN it was.

The pendant, I found in the Hoard and had forgotten totally. But I think it too is D'Orlan.

Brooch, charity shop today. It's a known design.

 

Ooooh that multi-colored bracelet is seriously NICE.

 

Isn't it just. There's a woman called Susan Caplan who sells vintage on Harrods and Harvey Nichols websites, amongst others. She wants quite a lot for a similar one.

Wheeeee - I don't recall the brand making that much here, but who knows.

 

I think she's a tad optimistic, but it's still better than the £13.94 I paid! She "curates" collections for high end shops.

 

...which leaves more to spend on more additions to the hoard.

That is how I justify having to spend a little extra on a perfume bottle that I really want. I have gotten 2 examples this weekend for a little over $31.32 total including shipping & sales tax because one was listed as a "vintage art glass bottle" (actually a c.1960s Murano clear glass bottle with DeVilbiss hardware) & "vintage blue perfume bottle" (actually a 1938 Czech crystal bottle with DeVilbiss hardware).
