I found a little gun powder quick loader in some things I bought once. Turns out you could also put pesticides and other things in it. I swear my...
I don’t see them but don’t doubt that you’re right. The surface glossiness really bugs me on all of them. Maybe the owner treated them with...
Looks like a very fun sale to root around imo. I may have focused in on the early export teapots and pieces near them that I saw in one photo. At...
What a piece!!! Well bought!!! Biggins listing looks to be for a pair? Just the silver should be worth a pretty penny I’d think.
First one modern, possibly resin, maybe not but likely is. Second two look very interesting/good and not resin. Although the second one is oddly...
Lol. A Moorcroft man, I shan’t forget!

First thought was Sara. My sister is beginning to make pottery. I’m going to try to convince her to put a plainly identifiable mark on her work...
If I had to guess he likely inherited a large collection. He definitely wasn’t an entrepreneurial scrapper. He just happened upon some silver and...
I’ve always wanted a silver beaker so I probably will get it shined up and actually use it. I can’t see that happening any time soon but when it...
Since it is unadorned with engraving and bigger than many Kiddush cups that didn’t really occur to me. I should have included dimensions. 4” tall...
