Good point on the temperature. I've always found carnelian to be very glass like, hard against the teeth, cold to the touch (similar to glass).
Wonderful, Katherine. Thanks for posting! @journeymagazine wanted to be sure you this post!
My first thought (like everyone else) "Wow, great photos!" Followed by, "LOVE these pins!" From your opening description you have good ideas....
Thank you, Debora. :) I don't have Instagram account but can use my daughters in a little while. Still wondering how to describe the medium....
Awesome @Debora !! :) I tried searching "Rein de Lege Bullfight" and got zip. Did you see other versions or was it just text that referred to...
Actually love this piece, kind of an alternate take on a bullfight. But I have no place where it works (at the moment) so was maybe going to...
If something that size was sterling, would expect some over-the-top quality in the elephant and not seeing that. But disclosure, not an expert...
Would be a fantasy island remedy for our recent isolation due to Covid!
Great finds, all! :) Wow, CX, that fireman's helmet is wonderful! Cool coin brooch, Van Poperin! Anund, amazing vase!! Good luck with the labels.
Oh, your family member is going to have fun with those. Nice haul!

You don't have a full set, but people are mixing and matching these days. Were you buying them for resale, or for yourself and just noticed the...
Sending you a message. Just the loose ones would be awesome. :)
Uh oh. You've opened Pandora's bead lover's box. :rolleyes: I would love the loose ones if there are extras. I can use that many for sure, but...
So if she was given this in the 1950s, maybe was a family heirloom due to age. It is gorgeous! :) Great job with the close-up photos, those...
My first thought was that this was older than Deco, but then started second guessing myself. Just reminds me of a guilloche locket I sold a while...
What a fun find! The tins are very cool and definitely have resale interest. For the beads, I'm sure the "10" was 10 cents back in the day. They...
Agree, with dating could be a little earlier, or spot on 1960s. As the pearls are faux and the clasp is broken I would think value is minimal...
Hope it goes perfectly! Be sure to show "after" photos if it comes out to your liking! :)
