And she has us licking our jewellery. I'm almost afraid to know what's next! :kiss::kiss:
I'm trying to think along the lines of what culture would make a kid's horsie toy as a mare nursing a foal. Does it have a place where some kind...
Think you are correct. I thought I saw faint impresssions after the upright that would make an E & did not know Signa was a place name. :)
OK, the 1897 Sears Roebuck catalogue lists an assortment of razors, most with black rubber handles, one with an ivory handle (made by Farragut) &...
Oh no, no, no. Bronwen only asked some innocent questions & relayed one man's opinion. On another contentious topic, this does not look like...
As you would have guessed, Italian for terra cotta design. Now maker EF?
At the risk of sounding like we're holding a seder: How does a 'wedge blade' differ from all other kinds of blade? Is it meant to do the same job...

As I thought. That's Giovanna Di Rosa's site. She finds, & evidently can afford, beautiful things. Sometimes I see things she has offered on...
It is an absolutely gorgeous cameo. Think is was listed on eBay & I was in the bidding, but just went too high for me. Where did you find it?...
My mother had a small book, think title was just How to Take Good Pictures, put out by Kodak, & you can see it's influence on how she did family...
I'm seeing matte on the decorative bit & shiny elsewhere. Could be same material, different finishes, maybe. It just seems too different from...
Anyone else think it's a crown over the number?
In this case it may be wrong to assume it is an assay mark rather than a maker's mark.
I think I'm seeing 858, but is a bit off for any fineness system I know, close to, but not equal to 21K gold. I usually find that when I can't...
Separate names with a comma.
