It looks like a trident turned 90 degrees. Did Gorham ever use one? I wouldn't be surprised if it were some sort of date mark.
Score! That curio box is looking for lots of little pretties.
This is a fairly recently made thing, so I'm no help regardless. Pretty though.
Pillow art, is I think what they used to call it.
Thanks! I took one look at it in the case and said "I want that one!" :D:smuggrin::smuggrin::smuggrin::smuggrin:
The penny drops. I have an East African necklace here with similar construction. It's still homebrew, but the Home may well have been in West Africa.
I only found three pieces today but ... oh my. One is my favorite - copper, this one with a mid-century Asian feel to it. The earrings are jade...
They're certainly primitive enough for recycled glass. The construction looks like homebrew; some kid with some pliers and beading wire put that...
Generally, but not necessarily. US Zone Germany pinpoints things. So does GDR - Germany Democratic Republic. Just plain Germany may not always.

For Bear and the other Brits, I found a Huntley & Palmers biscuit tin the other day. It's pretty recent, but I've never seen one before, and it...
Spent $54 at a charity thrift today. The photo is low light and blurry, but.... Whiting and Davis black enamel evening bag, brass and glass made...

If those smell good - cedar wood? Camphor?
In a coincidence, I just shipped out a vintage brass mini rosary in a bitty brass container. It's probably about the same age. I'm too much of a...
What are the beads made of? If they're plastic they're post-WWII unless it's bakelite. The crucifix looks like it could be older, but the...
Not old. I'd say it's some sort of Memento Mori piece, maybe meant for use at a funeral or afterward?
Those dark ones are ringing bells in the back of my head. They're not the usual junk, for sure.
Which it kind of is; they have a tradition of selling anything and everything! :p:p:greedy::greedy:
Separate names with a comma.
