[QUOTE="quirkygirl, post: 284269, member: 106"]Recent (since Sunday) finds. All pieces, except the signed Zuni bolo, were under $3.50ea.! :D There are two additional Steuben wines, but we used them for dinner tonight and they are still drying. A couple of tiny Herend pieces ... always nice to pick up for a couple of bucks. The earrings (hanging on one of the glasses) are vintage, made by Kroma ... one of the first companies to make jewelry using dichroic glass back in the 80's and 90's and recently started selling some of their most popular styles again ... they are keepers ($1) and will join the other Kroma earrings I already have! [ATTACH=full]91293[/ATTACH] The little porcelain box was taped shut too securely to easily peel apart at the thrift ... was unmarked, but so cute that I wouldn't mind if I ended up having to keep it for myself. [ATTACH=full]91294[/ATTACH] But look what I found inside the lid ... a striking surface ... it's for holding matches! People collect these things, right?? ... I may not have to keep it after all. And, at first I didn't realize that those things impressed on the lid were match sticks ... but they make sense now. :) [ATTACH=full]91295[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
