Cherryhill, I never knew that! How exciting!
First of all, I am awfully sorry about those glasses! As they say, "It happens..." As for the birds, yes, indeed - the STAND was made in China,...
Johnny, I really like those little birds, too! I don't know if they're from the same maker as this one, which is different and has a Made in...
Kard, there's one on Pinterest that's identified as "JenWaller" - but that's apparently an error picked up by SEVERAL Pinterest posters. I...
Fig, I've been using that one for several years. You can find some of the most arcane old marks there! I love the fact that you can look up makers...
Don, those glasses are exquisite! I've always loved the cut-to-clear cordials, wines, etc, but I've never had any. I have more than enough wine...

Back in the late 1980's/early 1990's, when we lived in the Washington, DC area, there was a "liquidator" who used to advertise on a local TV...
Billy, there are 3 of them on eBay at the moment, but none have sold recently:...
Billy, my thought is that it is a little foot stool. The "lashing" holding the pieces of bamboo together seems to have disintegrated some. They...
BML, I like it, too! The curves contribute just the sort of "difference" that adds a bit of style (especially in a room full of straight...
Cluttered, they were brown from the start. I have a few of those, too! edited to add: Is that a LION? I just thought it was a sheep missing some...
Don, that is very pretty! My first thought was Japanese, but I'm probably way off!
The little note I've circled made me think that the decanter might have been stored elsewhere: [ATTACH]
