Here are better photos. The pearls look natural to me, and the quality is actually exquisite--all those panels and decorations are pierced, it's...
So I made friends with a wonderful woman who runs an antique store, and it was going out of business so she was doing a 50% off sale. At the same...
Oh, I'm going to have so much fun sharing. The best way of finding out a medication has made you gone manic is when you drop your 20k life savings...

Hey everyone! I bought this box from a French seller a while back ($2000 covid splurge lol). He said that his father acquired it at a Paris...

Happy new year* I meant, haha :) I'll be posting other finds in the coming days.
Yeah, there were more flea markets in Germany :( But next month is Athens, and I adore Ottoman and folk jewelry, so fingers crossed I come across...
Happy birthday, Komokwa! I think maybe the original braces or hangers. I'm not sure what the center bar is there for. Thought you might...
