Carlton Heraldic China Titanic Miniature Urn

Spotted this little beauty in an auction lot of crested china we bought. Trouble is, we have got no idea of value although Carlton Ware World state that they have become highly sought after. Any ideas welcomed!

 

I have no idea of value, what I'd always do with this sort of thing was list it on ebay for auction and see what happened.

That was in the days when 'search' simply searched, and not nowadays when it also takes into account if you have your trouser leg rolled up and if it is the time of the gibbous moon.

I find it amusing that they are double dipping a bit there, if you are simply not interested in the Titanic, you might be swayed by the appeal of a tiny replica Roman urn.

 

HOLY CATS!
Especially smoke coming out of all 4 stacks when only 3 functioned in that manner.

 

Leave it to a Navy guy to know when someone's blowin smoke outa the wrong stack !!!!

Heehee !!!

Well done !!!

 

Hahahahahahahaaaaa!!!!!!
Thanks!......................I think.

 

I would've been lucky to have not tripped and broke my stack trying to grab this item!!!!

 

Ill trade you an Ivory camel for it ! Im a huge Titanic fan ! How tall is it ?

 

"...huge Titanic...."

 

Fair enough ! LOL !

 

104 feet from keel to bridge

This one is tiny, under two inches I think

Found this from a 2006 Bonhams auction

 

There are many different items listed on Worthpoint. I don't have an account with them to see sale prices, unfortunately.

Hi Chuck, thanks for that. Just hate paying for something I normally find for free!!

 

I found four different ones sold in PriceMiner. They ranged from $460.09 in Feb. 2014 to $277.06 in Nov. 2014. They were all about the same size but none are shaped the same.

Thanks Juli, that's more than I thought!

 

When I was a little kid, they let me watch the old Titanic movie. It freaked me out so badly that even today I hate boats. We had to take an overnight ferry from Helsinki to Talinn once and I could not sleep. It was April and the front of the ferry had a metal plate because the Baltic is still covered with ice. All night long you could hear the ship crushing ice. The staterooms were located below decks and the vehicles below us. The top decks were devoted to slot machines and mini-casinos. A trip that should only take a few hours takes 8 hours because the Finns like to gamble and then buy cart loads of duty free booze in the shops. Anyway, I definitely don't collect Titanic memorabilia.

 

I don't have anything but repro cards I got on the Queen Mary long ago. I have read a lot and somewhere, someone help me here please, I read that she was going to NJ not NYC to tie up. Probably the Erie Lackawanna piers.
Anyone?????

I have been to the traveling exhibit where you can touch part of her hull.
I have also been to the the Maritime Museum in Philadelphia which has/had (?) an exhibit which was great too.
