Aye. And an addiction to single malt.
I'm a good two thirds Scottish and have the DNA to prove it. ;)
It's not my mainstrteam collecting, whatever that is. I love it for its sheer age and honesty.
I've seen those with matching table lighters. Some were Japanese.
I should have said: it's not a kilt pin, those are generally giant safety pins. Plaid brooch is probably best as a description. Neat mend on it.
I do. De drie Klokken, circa 1760. I've had it years, it was in a boxed lot.
I think the necklace is betwixt the wars Czech. Brooch is spot on late 19th. I've some very similar ones in the Hoard. They seem to be chromed metal.
Yes, Cabochon was an 80s/90s party plan company, German, sold all over. Nice quality stuff.
Horned helmets can be Japanese. Is there no way to get that base off?
Older factory made.
Toggle one might be Cabochon, possibly. 80s into 90s. The silver is way older, 20s or 30s I suspect.
Looks like cotton sari fabric. I think it's 50s.
Got it. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I've got a real 1700s one if I can find the photo. Yours is way too considered, if that makes sense.
I think if you sell them as a mixed lot, and don't make any claims, they'll get grabbed up. Nice little lot.
Agreed! I've sold genie bottles sans stoppers.
That's a nice saleable lot. Semi precious stones in there, certainly.
They did anything that earned money.
Green ink was actually a Thing. I'm trying to recall which aristo or author it was who'd use nothing else. But I do think those siggies are sus.
I think opaque porcelain was registered to Meigh.
