******SAT. LIGHTS WEEKEND BLING FINDS THREAD******

This is the thread to post your recent finds, or to post old favourites .... no current listings please and keep the pics a reasonable size for folks who have slower connections.

 

Went to a church bazaar last night and it was so good I thought I was maybe hallucinating, that's how rare this sort of thing is around here lately.

 

Marked "Hand made in Canada Bob Ford" ... brooches, sterling

!4k stickpin with what looks like a moosehead?

Necklaces with 18k clasps ... one tests as garnets and the other looks like coral. Also a large sterling brooch

Really like this unusual mini mosaic pin.

And my favorite is a Star- Art signed coral and jade butterfly.

Though the beauty may be in the butterfly, the struggle and growth occur in the cocoon.

Thanks OCN .. this is what's so great about jewelry  ...learn something new everyday, I had no idea there was a Loyal Order of the Moose!

 

Things are quiet around here .. I guess pickings are slim, or maybe  folks aren't home from the sales yet.

 

No luck for me this AM.

Love the silver goose!

 

And the bling kami strikes again. We were expecting some Japan bead necklaces and similar stuff.  What we found was...

 

Bracelets - the black one is Vendome

Earrings: Sarah Cov, Hobe, Weiss, Trifari, Whiting & Davis

The two crystal ones are Vendome

necklaces.jpg

 

Pins, mostly Monet and Trifari

Necklace & earring sets. The lavender moonglow is Vendome; the dark (fake Asian) and red & goldtone are Trifari.

And miscellaneous sets. The blue set was marked Juliana; it's certainly flashy enough but I can't find anything on Aged & Opulent or in the Ann Pitman book where D&E used those shield-shaped stones. Other two pin and earrings sets are Trifari.

Hoping the sales fairy is as kind as the bling kami has been lately!

alway liked moonglow.  Arlene that sterling brooch next to the coral necklace looks pretty nice! (not that the necklaces dont look nice too lol)

 

Just a few fun modern pieces for me:

unsigned long skull pendant necklace, a fun pyramid stud collar necklace, and three sweet Juicy Couture crystal necklaces

Sandy do you have the Juicy COuture dangle and clasp yet for your site?

I went to a much-anticipated church sale today and blew $$$$.  On the other hand, I found some good stuff.  The photos aren't too good, but by the time I could take pictures the light was shot.  And I wasn't going outside in 30F for photos.

Most of the sterling, including a big Nye dogwood brooch and some Siam screwback temple dancer earrings.

Root beer bakelite.  This is the tip of the iceberg, but I haven't found anything really good in a while. 


She who dies with the most toys still dies; when's the estate sale?

Blue, I'm sitting here laughing at your comment about expecting bead necklaces ....so true! Well the bling kami is obviously smiling upon you lately, you've had some fabulous scores.

 

Ruth, lucky you if that's only the tip of the ice berg.

 

Although I must admit Friday night's bazaar was like that for me.

 

Here are a few more finds from that sale and a consignment shop earlier on Friday.

 

Cleio, here's a close up of that sterling brooch, and also a little jadeite carved Buddha charm in 14k.

Some modernist items. The rose quartz necklace is Kupittaan Kulta, Finland. The ring on the right is sterling and the other one is pewter.

Well, after last week we were looking to pick up lower end stuff cheap. That kind of stuff is my bread and butter on eBay - the better pieces don't get listed here - plus I'm currently looking for casual and colorful as resortwear season will be here after the holidays. All I can say is, that sales fairy needs to get her wand out!

interesting, Blue.

 

I've started selling online again. Not here, on another site. I'm finding sales slow but steady. Started listing about mid-Oct. and have had about 19 sales. Very few views, but when folks find the listings, they tend to buy. eBay seems to have so much more traffic ... I'm thinking of selling here come the new year but am so nervous with my low feedback score.

Cleio, funny you should ask that.  I was taking a look at your items and said to myself, I don't think I have that dangle.  LOL, great minds and all that.  I tried to pick your picture and can get the heart necklace really well, but need a close up of the dangle and clasp.  It doesn't come out clear when I tried to crop it.  I appreciate the help.
