That pearl ring thingie may be real, but it looks like the gold is flaking off. Gold-filled maybe. I agree the black opal is synthetic. It if...
Taking cards these days is required to get anywhere. The faded labels are worth checking. Sometimes values, Pyrex anyone, have changed...
Looks like satin glass from here rather than sapphiret or dragon's breath.
You had me at Railway. My late dad, had he been handy, would have been all over that project. He was a rail nut and an engineer and moving big...

Right now the hot seller seems to be Pyrex. I'm betting it'll pull Fire King and Anchor Hocking up too sooner or later, since some folks will...
I figure a giant work pile is a guarantee of immortality. Right?
That's true at American tag sales too, although we have no Sindies at all of any vintage. I'm a dyed in the cotton knit box digger too...unless...
