<p>[QUOTE="BMRT, post: 1214223, member: 10892"]I’m finding it harder to get out, my new job has kicked into gear and the 4 am show times and 10 hour work shifts are eating at me. By the time I pop away I’m emotionally fried. However! Here are the items I managed to find both from thrifting and an estate sale. [ATTACH=full]214586[/ATTACH]This Tiffany Delft mug made for Tiffany & Co.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]214587[/ATTACH] Should make for a very interesting read. I like to read and then release books back into the wild. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie49" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]214589[/ATTACH] This egg with another egg inside of it. Enamel of some kind over metal.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]214590[/ATTACH] Another enamel egg, plique-a-jour this time. The estate had beautiful examples everywhere of plique-a-jour bells, plates, jars, etc. Nobody was interested during first day and these got re-priced at a couple of dollars each and half off according to the woman running the sale.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]214591[/ATTACH] Here is a jar of same technique.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]214592[/ATTACH] Italian frame, sterling.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]214601[/ATTACH] Three necklaces, identically made with 14k clasps. The purple bits are amethysts I believe. These I was surprised to find priced at $1 each.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]214612[/ATTACH] Same story here. Sold cheaply as plastic, definitely not plastic.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]214613[/ATTACH] I wish I could have taken more time to look in the basket that held all the jewelry. Everything was priced so cheap, but my daughters had been with me and their patience ran out. Here are some earrings which I will find pretty hooks for, a necklace marked sterling on the clasp but the back of the crystals is mounted in what looks like brass, an amethyst & diamond ring marked KOREA and with two tiny stamps I can’t make out and finally this metal brooch shaped like a hand with pink rhinestone.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
