    Looked Art Nouveau because its the type of object from Japan that inspired the style. You can almost see the beginnings of whiplash in the flowers stem.

    Never knew that deb, but interesting

    I love the way it all knits together

    I don't even think money is the primary objective sometimes, it's about finding something that you think, yep I think that's brilliant

    Very nice! I would've grabbed it and I'm trying to get rid of stuff now, not collect!

    I know what you mean. I should also really start selling (letting things go) and not just keep on buying.. Personally I just need to get into a different mindset..

    komokwa The Truth is out there...!

    the collectors mindset has always been, ...sometimes it's wise to sell off stuff...to get better stuff and enrich the value of your collection.

    10 , ten point diamonds will never be as valuable as one , 1 carat diamond.....

    just saying......
