Looks the real deal to me.
Hi Karma, I found this ABC Rural article headlined: "Centenary of Gallipoli has the skills of a saddler in southern NSW much sought after." (He...
Thanks. She's actually prettier than I've photographed and is a very "hard", almost glassy porcelain. I was told Capo once by a dealer but will...
Ah ha! That's a worry. Well there they are. Not as snazzy as your purchase but still quite an exciting find at a usually very dreary op shop.
I thought you were in Australia and was merely crowing over another little bargain buy downunder. But sorry if I spoke out of turn.
We are being the Lucky Country this week, Shangas. A Sydney thrift shop produced these teaspoons yesterday (George V silver florins commemorating...

Voila ?
I'll hang onto it, thanks khl889. I doubt it would make $5 at a Sydney market. Would you be so kind as to look at my Satsuma vase? I've no great...
Thanks Scoutshouse, and hello to you. It's an interesting notion that several people might have worked on it -- a case of too many cooks, perhaps....
Any ideas or information about this vase would be appreciated. It's about 8" tall, has no marks on the base and is missing gold paint (it did not...
Fantastic, khl889. Amazing that you were able to find an example, too. Does it have any value, do you think, apart from the staples?
