Someone got a surprise on that one. 

 

Speaking of which, this one had me shaking in my boots a bit.  I listed the beads and a buyer offered me $1000 if I'd put up a BIN.  I'd figured them for a $200-$300 piece.  They were just delivered to a shipping service in Delaware and from there are most likely on to Turkey.  Turks like amber for some reason.

Sometime a few years back I had the Trifari Starflight earrings in both yellow and green. Very dramatic. Don't recall them selling for a particularly spectacular price, unfortunately. 😉

Looks like Seller a.....i made a profit after Seller c****y (7964) doubled the price. Bad luck for Seller: b****7 not setting a higher price in the first price.

 

Rabbit Boy sure gets around!

I'm taking a break from making flowers out of un-set rhinestones for an art project so I looked for some "expensive entertainment." Here are a couple. Enjoy!

This is the same designer who made the student rabbit (her name was mentioned in the first rabbit listing).

Thought this was interesting. 

 

Estimated to sell for $2,838, a dragon pendant stamped Coro, a popular brand of 1950s costume jewelry, went to an anonymous buyer for $14,178, “which is a lot for a piece of costume jewelry,” said Matthew Haley, the head of books and manuscripts at Bonhams.

The dragon pendant that was estimated to sell for $2,838 and sold for $14,178.

To Plath devotees, the necklace is a tantalizing totem of the pyrotechnics generated by her relationship with Mr. Hughes. A Maltese cross flanked by two dragons, the baroque design is completely unlike Ms. Plath’s other accessories, a mostly feminine assortment of rhinestones, hearts and flowers.

“The pendant has a Hughesian sensibility. It’s a little edgy for the time, and even has a whiff of the occult,” said Heather Clark, whose biography “Sylvia Plath: The Light of the Mind,” is forthcoming from Knopf next year. “Maybe Hughes gave it to her. Or maybe she chose it with him in mind.”
