The man in the movie resembles him quite a bit

 

'Nuff,

Can you get a picture of the bottom and the top rim of that vase?

 

Thanks, Sharona! Your tea set is Japanese Imari.

@ Mansons, the portrait is dated 1900. I'm not 100% confident in my ID of Stead as the sitter given the artist is American (Becker, Pennsylvania/Brooklyn). I haven't done much research as of yet but plan to soon.

 

Does this help?...

 

@'Nuff_Said

Almost all Loetz pieces were at one point attached to a pontil rod. They did an amazing job of polishing it out (Leaving a dimple) No dimple is a pretty good indicator it isn't Loetz. A more likely suspect would be Kralik or Rindskopf.

 

Boucher -- nice stuff! http://www.rubylane.com/search/,q=boucher+jewelry,c=Jewelry_Boucher

 

Not famille rose (which is Chinese) but imari colour palette (cobalt blue, iron red and gold). Mid 20th c. Japanese and you can probably find the mark on gotheborg.

 

Thanks Wendy I saw that!
I should have looked further and known that, slower than a snail....I will look again probably skimmed right over it

Me too!

 

Here is just SOME of my finds today. I made out like a bandit this time this lot of goodies tallied up to 47$ total most was .50 each i was in jewelry heaven shopping the flea today everyone had something and it was all price excellent. Picked up some other items but these are what I'm ecstatic about.

 

Jakes vintage, could I ask you about a few of your items pictured above?

In the photos toward the bottom to the left of the two pearl necklaces and the ladies wristwatch, what is the dark silver figural pin which looks like a person carrying an object in his/her arms?

And what do you know about the cluster of leaves pin in the orangish color?

And what are the mint dates on the Mercury dimes on the black bead necklace?

Congrats on quite an array of interesting items.

 

I'll start with the last first all the dimes date from 1930 to 1945! It's all silver even the beads just really tarnished the "blossom" is sand cast.
that little guy carrying tulips in his arms is a Dutch boy in traditional dress and last is a 9kt amber carved brooch.

 

Jakes vintage, thank you for the reply. You really did find some very interesting items.

 

Wow nice haul, love the spider, my swap use to be a treasure trove but it has pretty much dried up.....more luck at sales

 

Some really great finds on this thread this week.
MMS you found some nice jewels, love that crystal necklace!
Nuff the glass is gorgeous, but I really like that copper box!
Jakes looks like you found some great jewellery! Is that spider a brooch? Looks big, not sure I would like something like that, too many wolf spiders around here. Spiders creep me out.
I found a few goodies - Victorian double-ended scent bottle, Christmas Tree made out of broken jewellery, and it lights up, a table lamp that needs work but the shades are in great shape, and this fossil - not sure what it is, will go by the museum tomorrow to find out.

 

CX great finds there i know the fossil it's a anommite nodule that is a spider that you asked about not too common out here as far as jewelry mainly southwest jewels in New Mexico..
