Blimey. Off to fish mine out.
Could you post a photo of the whole thing please? Style and clasp can be very useful too.
Spongeware border and certainly looks to be from over here. But that spongeware is more Scottish to my eye.
MArko, do you ever sell, or do you just have a Bear sized Hoard!
Ay yes, botanical accuracy! Forties or fifties with that wired construction. Or even thirties. Lovely beads. Czech I'd think. Or maybe even...
Given how big a thing carnelian and Scottish hardstone was, might be as early as the late nineteenth century. Still very wearable.
Late 19th, that is.
Bachelors buttons - basically, for dress shirts.
The clams were yum.
Cannetile?
That's a nice export silver clasp. Real cinnabar is rather poisonous. These may be carved, but something other than the old genuine item.
I knew it was Malta even without the base signature. Mdina did that pink spatter as well, but not that kind of scent bottle. So did Mtarfa.
O, the horror! ;)
Phoenician Glass, Malta.
I've got a couple like that. Home craft work, I think, 30s ish or not much after.
You and I like the same beadage: I've got those faux tigers eyes, as well as the confetti ones. That filigree might be yer AH lookylike again....
And this is how Andalusia was, before the Inquisition: http://www.ajbasweb.com/old/ajbas/2013/March/323-327.pdf
It was the Catholic Church who burned and murdered Sephardi, regardless of whether they'd converted.
I've eaten sea urchin, which was rather good. Also, live clams. Wriggling. Yummy.
I'd not eat raw chicken, but oysters must be raw.
Separate names with a comma.
