This box is likely Korean (?). Bought for $2.00.



This jar is more amber than it appears in the pic. About 16 oz., I would guess. Bought for $2.00.

Thanks. Looks right on the Mikasa Sonata. The green stem glasses are slightly different. Found these that are closer from Cristallerie De Riquewihr, France. Looks like the stems are a bit darker.

Cristallerie De Riquewihr Wine Glasses, Green Stem Etched Grapes, Set of 5 | eBay

 

They want to be German white wine glasses, but not quite. The stems are wrong. I think Brad has the prize for the week.

 

Gotta like it when that happens!

 

Just realized that I doubled the price I paid on the three sets of stemware posted. This one thrift I shop prices all their drinking glassware at 25 cents a pop..... so cheap that I doubled what I paid, thinking it had to be more ..... LOL! They occasionally will put a higher lot price on glassware but not often. In contrast, the Goodwill starts their glassware at $1.99 each, without color tag discounts. Some nice stemware has been sitting on their shelves for weeks.

 

I found some Fostoria stems sitting at mine today, but there were only five. And they were $3 each. Since i'd be lateralling them to another dealer, three each might be more than I'd get back because he has to make a profit too. And there were only five. Another charity thrift with stupidly high prices on things wanted $3/stem for plain glassware. Those weren't even a temptation.

 

Some finds from yesterday.

Candlewick condiment jar. I don't usually buy Candlewick but it was only a buck.


Sascha Brastoff dish with a seal. Seems he did an Alaska series. Who knew? Ironically, I just had a discussion about Brastoff with someone who didn't know the work. Don't see much here and it just shows up. Also only a buck.


Set of 7 of these (8th was broken ) small cut crystal stems. Maybe a sherry or port glass? Closest match I found is unknown pattern #1437 at Replacements. Not sure it is an exact match. $1.75 for the set.

 

Nice finds. I do believe my parents had that Tiffany ice bucket. Oy I let it go not knowing what it is.

 

2 more from the back log...1st is this seed pod carving,Chinese ,I just love it.



And this one intrigued me.I liked the tile but wasnt feeling the frame,but it grew on me and now I love it. Cant figure out that signature to save my life,and google images didnt help.Its 7 1/2 x 5 1/2.

 

Thought the material your delightful lizard is carved in was basically diseased root growth. I've got a folk art cat that has one of those 'blooms' on the side.

 

Parasitic growth wood from Indonesia. Used to import and sell these.

 

William Dukasar? Dubasar?

 

Dinksr

 

This is definitely in the top 5 of my favorite pieces. It’s a Wedgwood candlestick from 1780-1790. It depicts the goddess Ceres holding a Cornucopia. I got this pretty cheap because of the condition. I‘ve never seen one in green before and there are none in the British Museum and the Victoria and Albert Museum. Beautiful craftsmanship❤️

 

Wowzer on all, especially the Tiffany!

 

That is beautiful.

 

The mermaid plaque is by William Dickson. Id have never gotten that ! Thanks to the studio pottery board on Fb !

 

That is stunning ! I love the color.
