[QUOTE="Ownedbybear, post: 8380723, member: 29"]A few weeks back, I went to a little table top "fair" which I frequent. Bought this. Seller said, disparigingly, it wasn't gold. I think she's wrong. Anyhow, I popped it in my handbag. Got home. Could NOT find the damn thing. Tipped the whole bag out three times, concluded I'd lost it to my great annoyance. Saturday, I decide to change handbags. I empty the old one. Other half searches it three times, in case i've left anything in it. Nada. I put it on my lap, sideways. And out of nowhere, I swear, THIS MANIFESTS. I've long thought handbags were black holes to another dimension, now I'm convinced of it. It is a Victorian albertina, by the way.
