<p>[QUOTE="Aquitaine, post: 597899, member: 602"]So, Firstly I did not want to crash [USER=197]@wildrose[/USER]'s post on her great angel! But it was true what I said about Mom and her Rolls' and what she had made....sort of....I hadn't looked at it in so long I nearly forgot.....and gave it a quick polish before posting!!! I have never TOTALLY understood her meaning, but I do know she read her bible every day and had her favorite verses and poems, so with the key, it's a little puzzle. Don't think the key is gold, but it's heavy. The casting is 7-1/8" to the top and the 'spirit' is 6-1/2" to top of her wings. Key is just about 2" and is like 2 dolphins with open mouths on a ball. Some one of these days I HAVE to have a glass of wine out of it!!!!! Have had it tucked away for 15 years now!! Here 'tis!! Oh, she had her favorite verse inscribed on the bottom.......and I JUST figured out those letters.....it's the man who made it....or his son!!!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]177594[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]177595[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]177596[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]177597[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]177598[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]177599[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
