Wondering what this little piece is? I believe the main section is roughly 1.5” long or so. The links are fancy. I’d guess it’s sun .925 silver...
“Modern art nude” might work. Looks like a volleyball player. Tall glass of water. I like the colors and overall look. Maybe a keeper if you dig it.
I was not really following the ins and outs of this situation. Just speculating on how an item detail could be unintentionally wrong. In some...
Gambling on metal is where you can make some major wins. If you have the stomach for it. If you’re making well educated guesses and have the...
Maybe they were referring to the base when they said cobalt. Even though the base also is not cobalt blue. It’s at least blue though.
I bought a presidential signature at auction once. Someone chased the bidding up to $700 or so on me. Just me and one other bidder going back and...
most people when they make a listing on eBay they search for a somewhat similar item. When they find one they click “sell one like this”. When you...
Beauty! They are rightfully one of the most sought after stones. They do seem magical and mysterious! A nice opal specimen to look at and ponder...

Any ideas on who/when/where? I’d think not newer than 70s/80s and not older than 20s. Likely on the later side? Came in a lot of some pretty good...
Cool ring! If opals aren’t in an old setting or really high end setting I tend to assume they are not real until proven otherwise. Particularly...
An image search couldn’t really ever tell you how old a plate is. Just how old similar designs are. Same design on a 500 year old plate and a 5...
Did you try the translate feature in the google app? I’ve gotta start paying more attention to auctions with $1 opening bids or whatever this...
Back also looks quite new. I wouldn’t be surprised if even 70s-90s. Here is a shot of the hardware on mine. [ATTACH]
I’ve sold much smaller carved figures in a similar style and quality without the hair for $50-$100. I think mine were late 19th or early 20th....
