Thank you Say_it_Slowly! Shows how much I know. The two things ARE related because they are both Navy items. I still wonder what that little...
Thanks Hollyblue! When I looked at spear tips on ebay it appeared that some of them were on the top of old lightening rods. We used to have an old...
Can't help you with info but it is really cool!
I've got a couple of things here that are totally unrelated. They both appear to be quite old. The one looks kind of like a knife but the handle...
Northwood was spot on! I found another just like it {although a different color} on...
I'll have to google vaseline glass!
I don't know anything about this little glass bowl/vase or what it would have been used for[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...

Found this today in my brother's attic. Haven't been able to find anything about it online except a book written in 1914 that is no longer...
With a magnifier I still am not seeing anything that looks like writing.
I suspect you are right Bronwen about it being glass. Thanks for the info!
I don't see anything that looks like writing on it. And again, not as old as I thought! So would this be called a cameo or a brootch?
This is yet another thing that I know nothing about. It took very little handling for the inside part to fall out. Don't know if you can see it...
Thanks for your input Houseful and Debora. I think I'll take your word for it that the pearls are fake. Not sure I want to introduce them to the...
Don't know what happened to my text up there. There are no markings or numbers that I can see. Perhaps this is diamonds and pearls but I probably...
Separate names with a comma.
