Cleaning out some old items -- got this a few years ago for the beads but now wondering if even in its broken state, someone might want the whole...
That's what I got too. Nothing popped up on a quick search with that name. It's a cool piece, esp. 5 inches across. The fact that it is signed...
What do you make of this piece? Signed D & C. It was a thrift purchase so no great expense. It crossed my mind it might be a fake or a...
Interesting. Where I live they were in demand about 7-10 years ago. The owner of a vintage consignment store used to say "bring me every...
I rarely, rarely consign vintage clothing, but the place where I live gives you 30% of what they would sell it for, or 50% in store credit --if...
Would not have the Mr. Blackwell tag. It's an idea, but where I live, this is not the kind of thing used clothing stores are taking. They want...

If the 16 fits like a "size 10 at most", it could be the equivalent of a modern size 8. Definitely include measurements. And good point for...
Wildrose and others made some excellent suggestions. People hate to ask how much something is. Absolutely correct. I think asking prices is not...
I'll bet the dress is full length, check out the variety of these Blackwell dresses on Ebay. (Fascinating!) Just love looking at vintage pieces...
Probably not a custom order. Guessing here, but maybe tags with the word "custom" indicated a higher level of garment in the Mr. Blackwell line...
I was thinking the same about the finish, but the 1st Dibs one in the link has the same distressed look. (Described as ...."a very beautiful...
Both are gorgeous. Nice story about finding them one after the other like that. Congratulations.
Your photos are excellent.
Well done, Cheryl. Bingo!
Thanks Greg. Could be it -- just seemed like something was deliberately put in there. Hard to explain. Bit of an edit: I don't think I...
