Hello Any Jewelry! Orientalism is one area of art that I can't decide is to my taste or not. I rather like the romantic images and the wonderful...
Sorry, on my screen those green areas looked white. Same principle applies, though. Still too much dead space. Don
Thank you, cluttered. This is the first one I've ever run across in the thirty years or so I've been in business. Or at least the first one that...
Thank you, komokwa! I had no idea these pipes were so elaborate! I can't imagine trying to bring these back as souvenirs nowadays and having...
Hello Board Buddies - I was sitting there minding my own business at our local auction when somehow a box lot ended up in my lap. This pipe bowl...
The listing you found is seriously messed up. There is no such thing as EAPG black amethyst. Marlena Toohey in her A Collector's Guide to Black...
