    I don't have photoshop....the colors match my house, especially the bathroom where I put humorous prints.

    Lizzie All you need is love ...and a dog.

    Just wanted to share this made in Austria crystal baguette and faux pearl necklace that I got in an auction lot along with some Weiss, Warner and Hobe (and more) pieces. It is stunning in person.

    Recent Charity shop buys, waiting for the jumbles and boots to start.
    Favourite is the 52inch brass guard chain £1.99 and the poor little amber bead brooch with 3 beads missing but it was only 99p. The other beads are plastic but looked interesting. The cameo is RG. No maker on the compact, another 99p buy.
    Plus some silver bits.

    Yup. I think it's a homebrew or crafter-made and I plan to re-craft it.

    I'd have bagged the amber too; it needs rescuing. (add some orphaned half-drilled pearls and call it solved?) The compact is pretty.

    I found this 11" carving by Richard Baker for not too much. I'll be keeping this one.

    Totem pole earrings. Sort of look like souvenir charms from this area made into earrings.

    Kudos to Richard Baker for signature, title, date and location! All artists should be so considerate.

    No 925 or U.K. hallmarks, they are marked Sterling so think you are correct that they are souvenirs from over the pond.

    With the subject matter, probably, but there's older UK stuff that is only marked Sterling. Mott did that, for one.

    Just looked him up, I see he used BlueJohn in some of his pieces which I may have bought in the past. Thanks.
