Many 50s and 60s costume makers used semi precious and even precious stones. Kordes and Lichtenfeld, Sphinx et al.
Certainly looks Austrian Art Nouveau.
Yeah, I'll be looking for the necklace next, but I won't pay more than a couple of quid. ;)
Nice agate slices, those. I'd agree on WD40 it's magic stuff.
Thanks @Bronwen - I could see the Italy, but wasn't sure on the region. I've a three strand bracelet which himself bought me in the early 90s,...
Ring holder.
Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards, originally, then dragons. ;)
Someone liked Moorcroft. I'd agree on it being just post WW1, when the poppy thing really got going. It is very like much Art Nouveau pottery in...
I float mine in my pond.
Try Queen Anne Silver Plate. 1970s ish, anyhow. Not a cruet, too big - from memory, these had moulded glass jam jars on them.
I agree on German or Austrian, it's typical - 1870s to 1900s.
Ruth, I am VERY happy with the bracelet. ;) It wears very well. It is not leaving my paws. Yes, London 1982. I think they're replicas of older...
Not English, imo. I'm not up on US slipware, but this almost looks Mediterranean.
It might be older Chinese, the glass recipe then was a bit less clear.
I missed that: yes, cased glass.
My value idea is based on auctions here, antique fairs here, malls here and online venues here, including Facebok marketplace and Etsy. Not just...
Not a mark, I'd say. That looks Czech/Bohemian and not long after WW2. Hand embellished, blown into a mould.
I'm trying to remember which language uses that a with an accent like that. Latvian, maybe.
I really like three colour gold. I suspect this is early 90s and on, with that braid. I doubt it was cheap!
Yeah, slapping butter around. The decorative ones were usually single: had a rose or whatever to make a pretty pattern.
Separate names with a comma.
