Not thinking that this has a huge value, just a bit perplexed. Kind of an older looking base with an inexpensive looking stone. It is also...
Even those old black bobby pins would be too thick I'm thinking. A small sized needle goes through, but only just.
Hard to see from just a photo, but the hole is too small for a bobby pin. Just tried a stick pin from my cork board --even that was too thick.
Thanks, Don. They are very well made feeling in the hand. Seeing the link though, I think they are missing the base plate, which was sort of a...
That's it, Judy. Thanks!:)
Completely out of my field. Both of these were at the thrift. Assuming they go together. What can you tell me? Thanks! [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
Anyone recognize the maker? Thanks. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Good find, Tyeldom. That's the same! :) They are saying 60's -- I suppose could be. The ones I have just look so new in the hand, but maybe...
Thanks Davey, and Eve. Definitely hat-pin like, but yes, its about the size of a golf marker.
Thinking these are near new. I have a set, just curious if anyone can help ID the maker's stamp. Thanks! [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
This piece was in a bag of jewelry I purchased. In the same bag was the velvet box. NO idea if they go together, but first photograph shows...
Nice! :):):)
It's cool. Maybe someone will recognize the artist, lack of signature makes things difficult, though. Small tip. If you are sending these...
To echo what others have said, I think it is newer, agree with post 50's, and the carving is a bit simple, not so fine, and like others, curious...
Can't help with stone orientation, but it is pretty. Did you test for gold?
I think in my earlier post I should has said I didn't see any with "wood grain" Formica. I guess I think of all wood-grain laminate on furniture...
Good point, Mansons! :)
Yes, I think you could get away with saying "Jens Risom style". I too looked around at Jens Risom pieces. Also did not see any with Formica....
Pretty. That would have been my guess, too... 1980's-90's Art Nouveau (revival). Does the verdigris by the pin closure wipe off, or is that...
Always include at least the height of the item (approx okay) esp. if there is nothing in the photo for scale.
