Featured Not done a show off thread for a while...

You might think I've not been buying.

Does a bear? Is the Pope?

Older bits first....

 

More older things.... I do like dress clips. And brooches.

 

I also like earrings....

 

Sometimes HUGE ones....

 

This is a clever marriage.

 

And this is an odd one. It's not amber.

 

Great goodies obb!

Yes and yes.

 

Oh, and some unsual light lemon amber. And jade/ite beads.

 

Bear's been in those woods all right, or at least chowing on berries at the clever blokes' stall! The watch pin/thistle pin marriage looks like something they'd miss blind. Fully marked into the bargain. The iris glass - they wouldn't even know what that was. The amazonite either.

^5!

 

All very nice but I like the rudimentary dragon/lizard, the bow tie ish brooch one below the lizard, and the enamel thistle bow further down the most.

 

Th “marriage” was the most expensive, relatively, I think it was twenty. Amber was four. He had other bits he knew were amber but didn’t recognise this one. Same with the beads.

I like that lizard thing a great deal, and I suspect the bow is both silver and French, it’s got that look.

 

Carved amber for 4 pounds... he was asleep at the switch on that one!

 

Quite the haul OBB !

 

The necklace is lemon amber, and that was four quid. The brooch is the one that isn’t. It’s interesting though given it’s got an early back!

 

Dat lizard!!!
