Thinking just decorative value for these two (and off to consignment store if yes.) But thought I'd get a few sets of eyes just in case someone...
If the rope is original, is positively on the newer side (remember that even a grandma may have purchased or received a gift in the 70's/80s)....
Nice find, Cluttered. Not sure if this helps, here is a (toucan) brooch, saying "Unsigned Kenneth Jay Lane for Hattie Carnegie" which refers to a...
Missing a few rhinestones in the back tail. It does look newer -- would think post 2000. Later than 1990s for sure. A nod to vintage, but almost...
With the close up photo, looks like it might be glaze or similar. Take the back edge of a fingernail and run it lightly across the line. If it...
Those amounts are in the ballpark of what I was thinking, too. Be sure to include "signed ITALY" or similar wording in the title if selling on...
Great piece. I was thinking "definitely Italian" at first glance. Absolutely gorgeous. I'll never tire of this kind of glass. Although 1st...
Thrift purchase. Probably someone donated because stopper was stuck. (Assuming this would not have been intentional --stopper would not have...
I would not think Ciner. Maybe the ad was for another pin and got mixed up with the photo or something or the seller was mistaken. The clown is...
Great thoughts Cluttered. And well stated. As soon as I saw this was thinking "Hattie Carnegie". There was a whole period she was doing these...
Me, too. I would have grabbed this so fast if at a thrift or similar. It's a really fun piece.
Thank you Don and Mat. :happy:
That's a cool piece. Seems like it has some genuine age to it. Very nice.
Any value in something like this or should I just donate? Was just hoping to see something similar but can't find the correct search words....
Maybe Japanese. Thanks, Any Jewelry. Meant to include a photo of the top of the lid. (Again, sorry if orientation is incorrect.) [ATTACH]
This feels very new in the hand, could even be some kind of tea caddy or similar purchased last week. Curious what to call this and whether...
That musty smell can be really hard to get rid. Not even sure if you could wash something like this due to shrinkage, colors bleeding, etc....
Just general thoughts. When I first saw them I wasn't thinking Venetian. They are unusual. I even wondered at first glance they were recent...
I think they are going to the consignment store. They have a great look in person too, but are HEAVY. I noted that a single one was unsold on...
Thank you for the detailed, thoughtful response, Taupou. Much appreciated. Also thanks to Eve an Komokwa for taking a look. :):):)
