    Some razors and strops but mostly blades, she has about twice as many as shown here.

    I agree but it's not a very deep cabinet, it might be a challenge to put in a shelf in that doesn't hide or cast too much of a shadow over the bottom layer.

    True. Glass won't help much if covered.
    I'd put a nice shelf or shelves in it with skirts to hide bar or puck lights.
    Staying black is it?

    @komokwa, on seeing the monkey, my first thought was he/it looked like one of the monkeys from The Wizard of Oz movie!!! At least as I remember..........

    komokwa The Truth is out there...!

    I think it's a white face Capuchin.......
    My wife thinks it's a Klingon !!

    & I'm sorry , but here we always ask for photo's from all sides...and all marks to help us with an accurate description .....
    The item is in perfect condition but there's a small hole in the body......& I didn't put it...where it is !!
    At least it's not anatomically correct.....so no Tallywacker & plums !!!:woot::woot:

    Meanwhile , no Pottie has provided any confirmation that it is in fact cheap Chinese gift ware.....???

    A big shout out to 916Bulldogs123 for my latest acquisition. He had posted this atomizer asking for input on age and a few private message back and forth and it is now destined to find it's way under our Christmas Tree (a present for the Mrs)

    I have a couple months to see if I can find a suitable replacement for the damaged puffer thingy

    I'm not a glassie, but I'd have bought that too.

    Today I did score a Hopi narrow cuff bracelet, maker's name Guy Josytewa; apparently the last name is fairly common among Hopi. I found several other smiths with the same name. The thrift I found it in had a vintage copper cuff next to it for more money.
