    lloyd249 it's not hoarding if it's valuable

    IMO if i was going to use it ya but then you have to decide what to do with your present/old dishes , so this ,or your others become dust collectors, or clutter .

    Tea cups and saucers too. Do not need to match.

    Probably...
    Though I helped a friend round up two dozen and she didn’t care if they matched as long as they weren’t chipped, cracked or stained.
    Some were sets but most weren’t and this had to be cheap as possible.
    I found almost all of them in Virginia and shipped them to California. :p

    We thought so too :)

    And the teapot and jug have already sold.

    I think it helps if you own the only ones for sale ;)

    Johnny, I LOVE that picture! Framed differently, it would be truly delightful in a kid's room - or in MY room, truth be known!

    Johnnycbo9, I am just curious but . . . is that a "cap/top" on the Waterford crystal golf club head?

    Hmmmm, I'm thinking it "might" be a "pocket-size" liquor flask for the "19th hole" on a highfalutin (hotsy-totsy) golf course. ;)

    komokwa The Truth is out there...!

    last time I posted a find...it was a flop...not this time....
    Some of you will say it's not native made....or can't be sold as such....but in my experience...this is solidly NA. ( sold as Ojibway.)


    IMG_3354.JPG IMG_3356.JPG IMG_3357.JPG IMG_3358.JPG IMG_3359.JPG IMG_3361.JPG

    $27 US.....off eBay..& no one else was smart enough to pay more....so I am very pleased...

    The BlueJay is 5 1/2 tall by 6 inches wide.....
    the beads are all glass....and the crystals around the edge....sparkle with all the colors of a rainbow. The tassels are a nice touch to a quality hand made item.
    The backing is thick deer hide.
