You can take your eclipse glasses off now. Post some eye candy if you've got it. Keep the images smaller to speed loading, and as usual nothing from a live auction.
The purse just popped up this weekend - 1920s Whiting & Davis. Not going anywhere for a while. The opal cross and the black Hawiian coral dolphins sold long ago.
Antique Foster and Bailey (F&B) gold fill bracelet with glass "amethysts".
The quality of these old GF pieces is really something and wow, have they stood the test of time!
Are you lookin' at me?
Cameo duo brooch.
Coral necklace I got at the Sally Ann just before Easter.
I hardly ever get items there anymore because you know "things have changed..." blah blah
It has a nice clasp.
I love bouncing those mesh purses in my hand. They have a great feeling. Very pretty design, too. Nice weekend score, ev!
You're right about the gold filled pieces, arlene. They do maintain their beauty over time. The cameo brooch is doubly good 😄!
Here are some dearly departed.
Carved and laminated Lucite red setter (I once had a dog that was a setter and a pointer. An upsetter and a disappointer. Yuck, yuck!)
Castlecliff fishies swimming in Lucite necklace:
Trio of Art Deco French bakelite bangles:
Couldn't find a newer eye candy, so I am going to post it here. Found an estate sale Fri that hadn't been hit by the old men in the area. Bought 4 bags. Almost had heart failure.
These are staying with me out of the bag. Most are unsigned but beautiful. Still have some that I have to look into so there will be at least one more post.
Thanks everyone. This is the last big name item from the bags. I tested the stones from the star brooch. They were glass but I plan on keeping it. It is just unusual enough for me. Went back to the estate sale and found some other non-jewelry deals so it was a good time for me.
