No real questions here, a bit of a show and tell. Had to grab this vintage quirky piece last week for $5. Once home and I searched...
Great looking and functional. You can set your cup or glass right on the surface, no coaster needed.
I have a new theory. Many of the Steinboch pieces are white on the back side with "Steinbock" mark printed in black. But I just found one on...
Nice as these enamel trinket trays are, they don't seem to sell for a whole lot, but couldn't help but grab this for a few dollars. Totally...
I was thinking iris... but doubted myself, lol! Thank you flower people! (Good to know violets, too! :))
Just picked this exact Bovano enamel piece up at an estate, and want to list mine. Below, not my photo, just quickly grabbed from Ebay sold as...
Thanks Aqui. It's just little tiny pieces of solder, but worth checking!
One of my superpowers is finding marks no one else sees, yet can't see a single mark on this. I've been over it several times with a good loupe....
Wow, thanks Cheryl. :) That link is a dead ringer. Is my piece near new do you think? It looks so similar! (Would love that price, but can't...
Done. If you send a letter, I promise to use the letter opener! :)
I'll try to find a black light and report back. I do like how the design complements the stone or amber.
Thanks, Houseful. I *think* just kind of depression in the metal. I studied it with strong loop, sort of looked like a mountain range when held...
No marks. I'm not good at ID-ing stones, but had a friend who is a pretty serious rock collector over and I showed him this and he sort of...
Unmarked, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was silver, although maybe plated. My guess is that it's older, but what do you think? Was on a table...
The holes are pretty large, that's why I wondered if more like a muffineer, but the size is actually pretty similar to a med/large salt or pepper....
Ah, not a pig but a wolf! And for salt or pepper. Well found, Debora. Thanks!
This piece reminds me so much of something that would have been made in Germany early part of 20th century, unsigned, some numbers on base. It...
Just back. Great questions here! I checked, almost all of the ball holes except one are "dead-ends". The piece does not stand on it's own, so...
Thank you for the responses so far. :) So do I describe this as Netsuke if selling?
Any ideas on this? Google image found one close match (in a white material), a necklace on a California craigslist... maybe can post that link...
