I agree that it looks best with no backing, I like when a pin shows the color of the fabric. It never occurred to me that something might be...
Hello. I wondered about age of this pendant (20's-40's?) and also whether there was at one time a backing to the piece. I assumed it was just...
Can't help, but gorgeous plate! I'm always intrigued by staple repairs, these certainly must have some age. Hopefully someone will recognize the...
I agree with everyone, this is a great piece and so glad you had the good sense to rescue it. Meant to be, I think!
Thank you, everyone! I wish I knew more of the history. Not normally my thing, but something about it is quite engaging and if I had the right...
It is very unique and beautiful. I think you found an interesting piece!
It looks like "171" and then "B". (But the "B" is upside down relative to the numbers if I'm reading the numbers correctly.)
Thanks for all the responses. I actually wondered about boat -- but may never nail this down definitively. (Cx, thanks for the google image...

Any thoughts on what this was intended for? The base seemed different than other hood ornaments I looked up, I'm not an expert at all on this...
I have a camera on my phone, I actually decided not to get these (for reasons similar to Brad's thought process) so no need to take a photo. (But...
Brad, this was exactly my thought. Quality, but not easily resold due to changing tides in the business. However... last night was looking up...
Thank you Cx and Don. Thanks for the link. Helpful. I don't think the set at the consignment store is quite as fine as the one in the link....
Happy new year all, wondered if you could give me thoughts on something and unfortunately I don't have photos. A few days ago I was in a...
A lot also came out of Mexico as well as Spain, 1960s, agreed. I ran into a set (amber) at a garage sale last summer, my god I was tempted, but...
