Featured Chinese porcelain tile with enamel mounted in sterling pendant.

Not really much here value wise it seems? Signed on reverse bottom, bail reads 92.5%. Theres a hole so you can see the porcelain tile through the back. Doesn’t seem like these really go for much more than $20 too often. Maybe a little more, maybe a little less. Anyone have any experience with these that says otherwise?

 

These are shardware. Modern, made from nice old bits of Chinese porcelain. I'd say your guess on price is about right.

 

These weren't expensive when they were first sold, and they aren't now.

 

I do like them tho' - the reuse is great.

 

It is, although at some stage the shards were purposely made. I like some of the blue and white ones.

 

Hi,
I remember Gumps in San Francisco selling these shards set in sterling back in the middle 1970s. I thought the blue and white ones were wonderful. I have several antique scroll weights that I used to make ceiling fan knobs. Several were made into tassels for keys for some of my furniture.
