Just got these two today. The first is nice. The second is very nice. We have so many loose cameos, I'm trying to talk my wife into making a...
When it comes to cameos, dealers and people in general don't put much thought into them. At flea markets, they'll throw them in with awful costume...
Eastern Pennsylvania. We moved from Jersey in 2021. I like to drive and we're both retired. We have something like 30 thrift stores in a 30 mile...
I take pictures usually as soon as we get home. Then my wife cleans them and puts them on display. I don't even know how she does it. Thank you....
That's a beauty. I have a question, I've bought some very nice cameos from Italy on ebay that are new. They say they're hand carved. Are they...
Where I live, they practically give them away. I picked these up at auction, and I was the only bidder on them. My wife has no issues with them...
We went to a thrift store today and this sold lovely Mary/Jesus in a gold filled setting for $3. With the 25% off it was like giving it away....
If those were for sale at the right price, I'd have bought both of them. The carving of the first is excellent. The second is just freaky,...
I see pieces like that all the time. It has to have some uniqueness for me to even consider purchasing. I bought these three at an antique...
This is the best I can do with the photo. [ATTACH] My wife loves them. But, she's never done a bit of research. She just likes to look at them....
Thank you. That's so weird about the patent. The company didn't put their name on it, yet marked that it was patented. The clasp that holds it...
I know that's what the word means. So, it's not a company, it just means the manufacturer (unknown) patented the bracelet? Why would they do that?
That's what my wife thought also. But, I don't think you can stamp into shell. No, it's not for selling. I started my wife on collecting cameos in...
Cameo bracelet is obvious. There's five beautiful cameos in a bracelet. The maker is not as obvious. I am fairly certain it's Brevattato. The name...
That's cool. I only buy when they're either cheap or in a bunch and the bunch isn't expensive. I don't buy these to sell. I collect. Eventually...
I'm part of a facebook group on stereoviews. I can not get my eyes to focus correctly to do anything without the viewer. I wish I could. Love...
That is GORGEOUS.
Thank you. Now you can see the trees in the background. In the viewer it's incredible. I actually have quite a few now. But, the wooden one I...
Another ugly hobby. Stereoview cards. When I was a kid I had view masters, and loved them. I always found Stereoview cards to be cool. But, I...
You're right they do. I didn't even notice that. I like it because of the top hat. I know. I start out small and just start piling on. I have...
