Oh, I think here the paint would add value, too. It's a very nice honest piece, that.
Spit on a cotton bud. As to paws, can you guys get Soap and Glory Hand Food? It's the best paw softener and healer I've ever used. Says the...
I've several of these brooches with semi precious stones in, including jade. Little pieces aren't expensive.
That Doulton one is interesting. I covet the shape, but I think it's a marriage. I've never seen an Aladdin's lamp from them with a glass insert...
Aha! I know what you mean, those impressed ones can be a right pain. Might be punch, but I've seen them with soup and veggie sets. The Victorians...
Bishop and Stonier, if it helps. Between 1891 and the 1920s. I agree on hobby painted.
I think it's fine. Country made stuff isn't as "designed" as higher end, it's part of the charm. I do like that original interior paint.

Yup, Napier and modern.
Ruth, I see quite a few of the impressed marks here. It's not a pickle dish, those weren't ribbed. Nor is it the classic demi lune shape used...

My BFF has a Knabstrupper. Massive great spotted thing, a mare, close on 16 hands. Unshod and it loves mud. We went to the Olympia horse show:...
The Israeli glass is often very thick and heavy. I've Jordanian glass, bought there, with similar decoration which is paper thin. God knows how I...
How interesting. The film costumes I've seen - and I've handled many - normally have either the character name or the name of the actor/actress if...
Secateurs, really, rather than pruners.
I'm not seeing Bulgari quality. The clips are at the earliest, 1950s but more likely 60s into 70s. So is that toggle.
