What wonderful finds @journeymagazine! Both are lovely, the metal one must be rather heavy lol! I love the characters on it. The red one looks in...
@Atlantic Jim Any updates on this? Its such a beautiful Bible and I'd love to know if you found any records. Such a travesty that it was left out...
Yup I was thrilled to find the record! I didn't think to look in the middle, my own bible has it in the front and that was my only experience with...
Good evening all! I haven't been able to get out to any shops or sales so no new finds, but I wanted to share my very first purchase as a 13 year...
Yes that writing is not Korean, unless you're talking before Hanja was developed and thats going back over 400 years. Its interesting though,...
And just like that I need one. :joyful: What a gorgeous piece of craftsmanship! Beautiful, such a shame there seems to be only two.
Interesting! Nice find, I personally love this type of art. Perhaps gives my pot some sort of time frame as well?

Interesting! Thanks for the info. How would you go about dating this? I looked at a few kettles and honestly they looked the same to me for the...
This kettle caught my eye yesterday and I had to have it. I'm wondering if its a replica of an older style or if it is an original. Its copper and...
Oh not at all don't worry! I'm grateful for the information and it wasn't impolite at all. It was nice to clear it up. The pot was in the junk...
