Agreed a natural sunlight photo would be best. I think that clasp and hinge is perhaps more 1900 or around-abouts. I really like her though. A...
It's a very nice plein air ink wash sketch. It's by an artist with skill, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's a listed artist as plein air...
He's really well done! I love the face too.
We have actual regulations on that? I just thought it was gauche, not actually illegal or policed by a governing body or whatever. AR says that...
If @Louise88 can't help you out, there is also one on uk ebay (ebay.us/m/TT4bv7). Miss Piggles is a hilarious and lovely name. :D
Not even silver, huh? Strange to see a shell piece be in less than silver. I think she looks decent for what I consider a "wearing" piece; ie...
Could also be tarnish. I've had some 100 yr pieces look gold-ish before a polish.
Yeah they probably used India ink so the black didn't fade as much and the piece isn't as obviously sun faded. So it still works as long as it...

Had a fun Saturday. I picked up a long vintage leather skirt and these bits: [ATTACH] Murano glass sticker on this vase. [ATTACH] Orange mini...
But film was...and then put in front of hot lights. We're so smart! :playful: That documentation I found about preserving celluloid objects in...
Agreed the second 2 are 19th c. Last one is late 19th based on those leaves. Middle one might be more 1850ish? I have a cameo that has the exact...
I love him. What a fun piece!
:watching::watching::watching:
I'm very late but yes a speaker cover! I just watched a YT of a walk through of an estate where the person had collected several. Came in all...
But isn't that like the always Going Out of Business Furniture stores? We had one here that had that sale for about a decade. Apparently the feds...
Yeah it's the crumbling part that I dread. I had an animation cel vinegarize on me and it was so depressing to find that some materials are just...
What a nice look to this one with the brown and gold highlighting things! Other than the one little mystery I've got in this thread, I've been...
