Then they're desirable as vintage clothing. The goths, punks, hipsters etc wear them sometimes. Clothing lining works for me too. Sure beats...
If you just want it gone, one option is a box sale. You buy a bunch of boxes somewhere, and sell the box for (price) to be filled with whatever...
At least two of the OP's look Austrian to me.
Just watched this Youtube video. Mr Johnson strikes again. Even he wasn't sure about all the particulars. I think this one at least is 18th...
If they did I've never seen it. The ones from the 50s were supposed to resemble the ones from the 18th century or something, so they didn't use...
All you need are brides who know the tradition and you're in like Flynn. (dunno where that turn of phrase comes from, but it's old like the...
My first guess would be Italian. NICE! It would make one heckuva wedding tiara and after all it is both old and blue. (something old, something...
I was just about to post the same link. Congrats!

Look at bead loom pictures or bead weaving. This is a lot older and a lot better, but it's in the same vein. There are a few boardies who would...
Chinese, but that's as far as I get. It's been used, hence the red ink on the bottom, and probably isn't particularly old.
Hopefully before the Idjut Contingent can find it!
Not the shade I would have used. The lamp is very shed-made funky and the shade is bordello-tastic. I'd throw a drum shade on the lamp and call...
Measure EVERYTHING on the dress and post all of it. Vintage size 10 is not modern size 10, and you can bet some idiot buying on their phone would...
Separate names with a comma.
