yup....don't list anything u can't afford to loose.........

 

And if you're new, ACCEPT RETURNS - keeps some of the scammers out of your hair. Also, steer clear of electronics and fancy shoes. And any idjut asking for contact outside of eBay or who wants to pay with Paypal directly for whatever reason. Major red flag territory.

 

You also may want to consider selling the jewelry in lots, not individually.

 

Had a few pages to catch up on.Yall got me wanting to buy jewelry again wich isnt good ! A few bits and pieces I picked up lately,the first being an owl nightlight wich I swear is glass yet the only other example I saw said china?



Abe Cohn pottery,sells for not bad money. I was heavily into studio pottery for a bit.


Fiesta(?) salt and pepper,not sure if old or later


Finally a lovely Duncan Miller glass vase (to go with my 100 I already have!)

 

Your owl is porcelain, johhny.

 

Isnt it funny after a lifetime practically of this hobby I was genuinely confused !

 

That vase!!!

 

Blonde moment, my friend.

 

Happenstance.....

My stance just happen to be next to my charity 2nd hand store today....

finding anything of value there is like looking for a toothpick , in a corn field..!!

but it calms my mind.....and it's a charity.....so....

.
who doesn't like a vintage x-mas candle.....???


$4.....for a bag of nesting dolls.....a lone Santa..& blonde bobble with a musical chime inside.
The front ones are marked...2008....I think Russian....

.

C'mon, it's the Queen....or at least a canoe shaped gift from Montreal's famous Queen E Hotel.... I'm thinking 60's...

.

I don't know what the heck this is....but that Cicada was just to cute....
I'll toss this on the Potties forum for further review....

$10 for everything........money well spent.

 

Not sure what I'd put in a bug plate either, except maybe bird seed.

 

Clearly chocolate covered grasshoppers.

 

Or gummy worms!

 

I got lucky with a good garage sale today. These things weren't crazy cheap, but I think I'll be able to sell them at my antique mall spot for much more than I paid.

 

Found this cool thing recently.It could be Aztec or from India ! Found several examples online all called Sauri Warli .My new favorite thing ,this week !

 

I also found this small button. Its message feels... 'dated' ... I'm not sure the message resonates much today. But it's interesting as a historical artifact.

 

I forgot to add this pretty. Its brand new but I love Icons and doubt I'll ever have a real one.

 

That one is awesome!

 

Persian "story" drawing of polo players. Call it Indo-Persian if selling or Kashmiri if selling on line - keeps the bots out of your hair. The little vases remind me of the one my dad bought me 30-odd years ago. He liked Chinese cloisonne, or at least thought I would.

Thanks for the advice! I was thinking India, but Persia / Iran makes perfect sense too.

 

It's definitely Persian, I have one which an Iranian friend gave me. I've forgotten the name for that inlay technique.
