Now I have that song Baby Beluga in my head.
LOL

Nice whale!

 

LOVE the tea set Anund !!! Very Nice Indeed ... Joy.

 

And now I have the Baby Shark song in my head. If you don't know it, don't google it.

Can't say I didn't warn you.

 

Nice! 'Arita button set' solds: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_fr...&LH_Complete=1&rt=nc&LH_Sold=1&LH_TitleDesc=0

I'll probably start them at about $70 and see what happens. Recent sold prices go up to $180, but the box isn't perfect.

 

Fab !

 

Ohhhh...I am so afraid for the future of our race......... humans, that is !

 

Should garner some interest starting at that low price, hopefully the bids will come in...

I'd even be OK with $70; I won't say what I spent, but I spent about half that at the rummage sale, total.

 

According to this, the original set consisted of a coffee pot, creamer, sugar bowl and cups with saucers. You appear to be missing the sugar bowl. Here are all pieces in a different design. (The set is referred to as both a coffee set and tea set, by way.)

Thanks Debora, I thought I was missing the creamer because the piece I have with the lid doesn’t have a spout and has two handles.

 

your piece sure looks like a sugar bowl

 

Went to a church sale today, and they let us in early! Of course, someone else got in the day before who went to the church so... But, among my haul is a sapphire ring that seems to be 18k, a gold ring whose marks I can't read, I think they're Arabic, and a painting dated 1897. Ordinarily I wouldn't buy a picture of a basket of flowers, but the whole darned thing is made of itty bitty seed beads, stitched down to a backing. If you're wondering, the rings are sitting on a sterling jar lid...tossed in for free.

 

LOVE that beaded picture!

 

I couldn't pass it up for free

 

Holy politically incorrectly named products, Batman! These days that name would get you picketed.

 

Got this vintage advertising ruler at an antique mall. Love the look of it!



Got some great deals at auction too. Some mint sets I snagged we not selling for much more than the melt price of the silver content.
