It did get Princess Michael some press, which may have been the idea. Then again she's never struck me as being too bright, and her dad was a...
Truth be told, the Princess can come off as little tone-deaf, but these days it's difficult not to fall afoul of the PC Police. And it was a nice...
That's what I thought.
I've always loved the black ones, and they're never cheap. As for the bees, buyer beware I guess. Eboo won't do anything. They don't even...
I can't print what I think of the ideology, but they did have some cool gear.
If you got there late, you have to wonder what was there early. The bracelet could definitely be Napier. The Hattie piece was definitely a score.
Those orange stones will light up like crazy under a blacklight, btw.
Nope, and no signs it ever was. There are traces of silver polish in the corners, and the dealer I got this from is fairly clueless, so... who knows.

Occupied Japan stuff used to be hot. It's cooled off again. I'd donate the box somewhere if you're just going to toss it.
I think they're supposed to be Gauls.
Italian trade beads made for the African market, and what looks like a West African bronze pendant. Or a wanna-be anyway.
Not really. They're pretty much brand new. Cute, but new. I have a friend who loves birds, especially parrots. She'll probably end up with it.
Meanwhile I was checking out the box the thimble came with.
Some of the others look like African recycled/powder glass beads. The green oblongs are Italian chevron beads. The orange and silver ones could...
I love the fedora. The other goodies came from hither and yon: old cloissone beads, a Binder Brothers locket, the paste brooch, the ring purse...
