Hi everyone, I posted sometime ago; someplace that I was working on a family embroidery book project to house some insignificant family items. An...
I would vote for 30-40's also... doesn't seem 50's to me. Although, Fat Santa first arrived on the scene in the the 1800's... he wasn't widely...
I can't imagine what that indent would be for if it didn't house something. If it was a loose stone or glass item; it would be easily lost. The...
It is truly lovely! Leslie
What is the round hole thing in the center of the chest? Did it house something like a red glass heart maybe? Leslie
@Ownedbybear Oh thank you! I love the piece also. I've often wondered what the third bangle was - probably the same as the other two. I'll never...

@bercrystal Wow! I can only wish I'd found one like that! You GO gal! Cheerio Leslie
Yes, it is true - some people's trash is another's treasure! I love that cocktail ring/engagement ring! I'd wear it in a hot second! As for...
Hi Northern Lights Lodge here. What a cool piece! I am, however, no expert on tapestries - especially in terms of value. I like the story re: the...
