I just found this thread again. My bread board, older than I am, is made with that construction on the ends. I think it's one from my...
Calling in @MrNate for expert confirmation!
Not old. Deco-inspired for sure, but not old.
I'm with Cluttered. The only piece I think is probably sterling is the tall candy dish (i.e. the compote). Those are usually weighted and worth...
The pearls are freshwater; they're too cheap these days to fake them. The white coral is most likely just that, and the peachy coral is real too....
It doesn't look like anyone ever used it. Wedding silver probably, long after anyone was registering on a regular basis. They never got the whole...
OOPS! I think that set will be an OK deal!
That's a Tudor rose, so it makes sense since the other flower shown is a thistle. Queen Anne and Queen Mary were sisters from the Stuart line....
Certainly possible. OTOH the listing claims it might be silver... which I be leave to doubt. Anything marked England that was silver would be...
What Flipper said. It's more artisan than brutalist. Most Brutalist pieces were done in the 70s and into the 80s. Dichroic pieces are mostly...
Fig's right, and my states regulations are even tighter. The only people really buying ivory in CT these days are institutional buyers, i.e. museums.
It's marked WM and England, so it's not horribly old. I'm thinking some sort of souvenir ware or something made to look like it came from their...
I was thinking the tankard/cann was a good possible, for the reasons Mr Nate mentioned only he knew how to put it into words. I have a hunch that...
The loop could be fixed - see reputable jeweler. I would need to be someone who knows how without munging up the enamel. Me, I'd get a coin stand...
That's a cool lamp. It needs rewiring naturally, and either someone to do the glass (that won't be cheap) or maybe even a parchment insert (not...
Anything Margot de Taxco sells handily, even though the bail has bailed. If it does get sold, I might do it through a good reputable jewelry...
The cut-off depends on where you are. In the UK it's 1947; where I am ... unless it's documented you can't sell it at all in a public forum.
Two of them make my nose twitch. A third I'm curious about...I think it's a no go, but would be happy to be wrong.
Legally, good luck with the ivory. You're allowed to keep it or even give it away (within state lines) but selling it would require proof it was...
Welcome. Read how to post photos and get some stuff up! We junque junkies are all in need of new stuff to look at!
