Keep watching. Entertaining, and in my experience the more I’ve watched the more the little bits have sunk in. I have a pair of oxblood lamps...
You bought yours better than I did! Mine doesn’t have a break but I’ll be lucky to get it sold this decade I think. There’s too many of them. You...
I know nothing about jet.I bought a big lot of “jet” stuff a while back. I assume some is real and some isn’t. This is from a different purchase....
I think it’s actually meant to be a lotus. Vintage. These were made in large numbers. I know because I bought one hoping it would be worth more...

I think nice sombreros were a relatively common thing to bring back from Mexican vacations back in the day. They are often left sitting around at...
Viewing these through a proper viewer hurts my head. Give me the feeling of wearing someone’s prescription glasses but worse almost. When you’re...
