Please forgive me for writing Markelbach in places. It's either my age or I'm obsessed with the Duchess of Sussex.
I bought this R Merkelbach beer jug for the paltry sum of €3 on Facebook Marketplace. It really is lovely. The Mark suggests that it is c.1930....
So many dreams get crushed on this website.
@Bookahtoo @CECELIA G SWART I did go for the Black amethyst vas last night. Partly because of Bookahtoo's comments, partly my gut feeling,...
@Bookahtoo I have just looked up black amethyst and noted its rarity. It just looks black to me. What gives you a clue that it might be...
All I have is the photograph and the seller says it is black, which is what I thought it was.
@Bakersgma I copied more than I intended, but I believe that the noritakecollectorsguild will, if it is there library, make an identification....

Possibly I'm a philistine, but this Louis Vuitton suitcase does nothing for me; but it did get me rushing down to the cave to find my...

It's a ceiling light hanging rose.
Thank you all for your contributions. I have learned a lot. If Moser has anything interesting to say, I will post it here.
I'm afraid I agreed with you even before made it. I will however put together a folder of photos and send off an enquiry to the Moser Museum,...
@Darkwing Manor Thank you, that is fantastic. So what are your feelings now? Is it a cast sulphide, it certainly isn't glass or imbedded in...
