Oh well. To the scrap pile with it.
Update: got up at OhLord'30 and was 4th in line. I watched through the window as the guys working the sale discussed the silver ... and marked it...
That ought to do it! What's the watch with the yellow face? And check out the quartz watch too; some of the old ones are starting to inch up...
I do have to admit to wondering. Probably plated stuff. I have hopes of the candy dish. At a lot of these sales, the big silver lumps go to...

I was thinking the same thing. The box looks like a cocktail cigarette box - you'd put out different "flavors" for your guests. I must say I...

Hmmm - next time I go to the ReStore.... (LOL)
If I were taking a wild guess, I'd say Slavic Folk. Just don't ask me which group of Slavs other than not Polish. It doesn't want to be North...
Earring piece is likely. The pendant version is usually more in the 25-50mm range.
Wild guess - Finland? One of the Baltics? It looks almost like Scandinavian Modernist, but a little more primitive.
I don't think it's NA, but it's not screaming Mexican at me either. Further south, maybe?
