It doesn't look old to me at all. The beads are all wrong for 1920s and dead on for 1980s or even a little later.
What she said, except for the plastic bin. Plastic can do nasty things to silverplate. The tray looks like something from someone's 1960s...
Seconding the need for more pictures, including that stamp you can't read. The hardware on this doesn't look ancient. My first guess, inexpert...
I wouldn't mess with them unless it's for personal use. These days Victorian furniture sells for about what used Ikea does, but not as easily....
Nice quality tat. I tried to keep my eyes off the rest.
Pet rocks part deux! This sort of gag gift was popular for a while in the late 70s, back when they still had things called Gift Shops that...
Looks like a good place to stash your knitting projects in between working on them.
Hummels. If you want to get depressed, look at where "figurines" of any sort have gone in the last few years. I went to an estate sale this...
JW623 looks like. Beyond that? Dunno.
That's probably as close as I'll ever get. I'm going to list it as Russian, because that's probably close enough.
She can but hope ... and keep looking! Score!
Or Taiwan, more likely. Those boxes were common. The watch? I can't see anything of it beyond a gold color. We need the markings on the back.
And lingerie was marked in inches rather than sizes - this is a 32 bust, most likely. I'd take a measuring tape to it.
I've been keeping my eyes peeled. The blue and green jasperware turn up all the time here, but never the black in anything. I'm getting up two...
It might have been a wedding gift to the lady whose grave someone found. Lots of guys still get called by their last names if they hate the first...
(LOL) I have a former Air Force cousin who might know these. Apparently they're out of order, and whoever had them never wore the Nam ribbon....
I've seen rosaries made of roses before, but could never afford them. (then again as a Protestant they wouldn't have done me much good anyway!)
I think you scored on the spoon. But ... Botsford as a given name? And we thought Cadence was bad.
Same here - Czech, late 20s to mid 30s somewhere. They're not quite a set but can be worn together with no problem.
Remove the uck from the poor Gorham; what did it do to deserve that treatment?
Separate names with a comma.
