Nice haul. Those artisan pins were worth the price of admission for sure!
I can see why. It doesn't hurt that it's a cute guy either!
The larger of my two swans is about 25mm long if it's that big. There should be one on the dog, but there isn't.
No idea, but the difference is visible. It's hand tools vs machine. No matter how good the later guys were, there's a difference. Those dots in...
What I was afraid of. That interior mold line is a dead giveaway that it's costume.
I'd have figured 30s too, with the small stone. Maybe also right after WWII when designs hadn't changed yet. Those wings would have appealed to...
I'll have to get some real daylight tomorrow.
I think it's old, but not as old as it wants to be. Exact numbers, not a clue.

Oh well. I sure didn't lose much on them.(LOL) I figured they usually signed.
It would be.:p:p:p Google doesn't understand "context". It does make me think of a really bad Napoleon dessert joke - La glace. Toujours la...

The center looks sloppy to me. I'd have bought it for that price, but no glassmaker in an earlier era would have let it out the door.
I promised to try for some better pix. Humpty Dumpty originally had a hat, darnitt. Only the little seal is signed but you can only see it from...
Another reason it's so good. White-hot love poetry to a girl who won't ever respond... probably given to a lady who darned well did.
