Thanks, Evelyb. I know -- same here, never seen one quite like this. Each stone is individually set with prongs and two round links. If it...
This pic is from an upcoming estate sale. Kind of caught my eye -- not just your every day rhinestone necklace. Open backs on the stones --no...
Ditto on the kudos for INH. Very well done! :)
One more voice to agree with Alors. Most collectors would want original (not restored) condition. However if for your own use, do whatever you...
No idea how prevalent Desimone fakes are. I can tell you that the two pieces of Desi have totally unglazed bases. This one does look a bit...
I would say that that dating seems reasonable. It is a beautiful piece. In the future please use "full image" for your photos so they appear in...
Fantastic comparable pieces Kyra. What an intriguing piece, Wenna! Beautiful.
Joan, It was such a distinct image, I tried Google Image Search and found the link above. Piece is titled, "The Glory of Winter". I like it a...
Great name, you fit right in! Welcome.
Thanks for the idea to check Etsy. There seem to be some made out of clay (link above) and others carved from wood. Mine are wood. Two are kind...
Top piece is solid with a bit of wax in there as well. As a side note, these unscrew in two places. I'm not sure how the glued repair fits in...
Wasn't familiar with Jean Lambert-Rucki, just did a search. Good heavens Anund. What a score! :) Great finds all around. Love the kitten...
Oh, I leave out a lot of what goes through my mind at the thrift. Here is the set I came up for a comparable, once home. This set is a larger...
There are some on Ebay, too, but not exactly like this. Are the ones you found on Etsy quite similar to these? Again, thinking mine are vintage...
Someone had stuffed these candlesticks sideways into the out-of-season Christmas display area at my local thrift. Almost like they thought about...
I almost thought that fork-like piece might be for hair ?? but these are totally out of my field and could be completely wrong. I usually avoid...
Small group of African items together in a low cost bag at a thrift. The 3 miniature masks have older looking tape on the backs w/someone's name...
SBSVC, I can feel your pain. I (almost) never sell items for other people. For whatever reason, it always turns into an unexpected PIA....
Excellent photos. Agree -- modern. (1990s??) Looks like the rhinestones are glued in, so not super high end but maybe a bit better than the...
Does the note say it is a "Replica of a war ax?". Thinking this is a tourist piece maybe from a few decades ago? Not an expert, though. Wait...
