$28 USDMIJ four white cat orchestra, band, figurines
Collectibles:Animal Sculptures And Figurines
With no cracks, chips, or crazing, this little ceramic band of musical instrument playing white cats will steal your heart! At about 2-1/4", the accordion player is the tallest but not necessarily the cutest. The only flaws that I can find is the loss of cold paint decorating them. Each one is impressed with "Japan" on the backs and each one has a unique and winning expression as well as sense of movement....what a great addition to your precious collection of cat images! I cannot date these for ...
$26 USDMade in Austria rhinestone and japanned screw-back earrings
Jewelry:Vintage:Earrings
In spite of being screw-back earrings, these are worthy of getting a very good home and being worn! The metal is japanned (coated with a black coating) and the rhinestones are magnificent! Super sparkle with absolutely no foil damage at all....even with a 10X loupe! The center rhinestones is above the row of channel set rhinestones that form a rondelle so that a nice dome is formed. The width of the fronts is only 7/16" so they are subtle.......small but when the light hits them they look like ...

$12 USDVintage rhinestone bow shoe clips....mint
Jewelry:Vintage:Costume
I can just see this on a pair of basic black pumps for the holidays! Absolutely classic!! The wonderful thing about shoe clips....when you can find a pair in good shape!....is that you can take one pair of basic pumps and just clip on a pair of shoe clips and everyone thinks you have a new pair of shoes. And, you can wear a pair of basic pumps to work, then just put on the clips and you are ready to go out for the evening without having to go home and change shoes! This pair is in remarkable ...
$28 USDIncredible Made in Austria, clip-back earrings, near mint!
Jewelry:Vintage:Earrings
I wish I could stress how beautiful these earrings are! The rhinestones are clear ABs and are in wonderful condition with only the most minimal of foil loss.....in fact I could only see it with a 10X loupe and even then, I had to really look hard. The enameling is in red, white and shades of green and is still is great condition with just a couple of teeny tiny nicks in it. The clips are in great working condition.......just too pretty to describe adequately. The size is 1-1/4" tall X 3/4" wide ...
$85 USDSterling, marcasite lizard, chameleon brooch 4.75", mint
Jewelry:Vintage:Pins/Brooches
Marked Sterling on the back...in such tiny letters that I could not get a readable picture of it....and obviously rhodium coated, this gorgeous lizard is pave set in marcasites. In mint condition, with all stones present and in like new condition, the lizard or chameleon is graceful and very lifelike in shape. He has two little emerald green rhinestones for eyes that are the perfect accent and give him just tons of personality! 4-3/4" long.
$45 USD1975 Pewter bulldog figurine
Collectibles:Animal Sculptures And Figurines
I know the year on this unsigned and undated figuring because it was a Christmas present for my mother.....she collected bulldogs, both real and in image. :) This little guy is about 1-1/8" tall by 3-7/8" long.....I love his little foot sticking out behind him as he lays down for a short rest! He weights in at a little over 13 ounces, he is nicely textured and detailed with his little foot sticking out behind him, his tongue hanging out and a slightly rough coat. In mint condition.....but a ...
$185 USD1970 Philip Kraczkowski pewter bulldog
Collectibles:Animal Sculptures And Figurines
2-5/8" tall and 4-3/4" long, this magnificent bulldog figurine weighs in at over one and a half pounds and is signed on the bottom "Philip Kraczkowski, 1970" and a copyright symbol. I purchased it new and gave it to my mother for Christmas that year and it has always been displayed behind glass. It is a wonderfully detailed sculpture with a slight golden sheen to the finish that really makes it come alive.
$25 USD1940's Sterling silver tiny puffed heart charm, no name
Jewelry:Vintage:Charms
This is a very tiny little sterling silver heart.....only 7/16" across.....with no engraving at all. It does have a nice and good sized bail that will make it easy to add to any existing bracelet or for use as a locket. In the tiniest lettering on the bail I was able to confirm that it is sterling by barely making out the top half of the numbers '925'. There is other lettering on the bail but I cannot make out what it says.....even with both my glasses and a 10X loupe. :)

$26 USDCa. 1950's pink google-eyes poodle figurine, ceramic
Collectibles:Animal Sculptures And Figurines
With a little bit of spaghetti trim on his ears, paws and tail, this little guy has glued on google eyes and pink complexion and metallic gold trim. At 5" tall he is large enough to show up on your dressing table or display shelf but small enough to look feminine and dainty. He has no chips, cracks, or crazing.......the only sign of wear or age that I can find is the tiniest flea bite on the end of his painted nose that passes as shining glaze from the light. An incredible little guy that has ...

$110 USDRussian green goldstone ring and earrings set
Jewelry:Vintage:Sets
Purchased in Russia by a lady who loves to travel, this gorgeous set is made of rare green goldstone. The metal is not marked but to me it appears to be sterling silver........but since it is not marked I will just say it is 'silvertone'. The ring is a size 5-3/4 and the face is 1" X 11/16". The earrings are for pierced ears, they dangle and the faces are each 7/8" X 1/2". The previous owner told me that she saw the Bolshoi ballet one night while visiting Russia and wanted something to ...
$42 USDGreen Bakelite and metal bar pin brooch
Jewelry:Vintage:Early Plastics
This interesting pin is 2-7/8" X 3/4" with a safety clasp on the back. The plastic tests positive for bakelite and the clasp is make into the plastic as opposed to be added later. The medallion on the front is made of silver colored metal.........perhaps it is aluminum? The condition is near mint......with a tiny bit of the metal medallion wrinkled at one end. Shipping for this item will be $2.00 to addresses in the US and Canada. I don't charge 'handling' so shipping to other countries will be ...

$76 USDCORO DUETTE
Jewelry:Vintage:Costume
CORO DUETTE Almost mint condition.

$15 USDTaxco Mexico Sterling 925 concave bangle bracelet
Jewelry:Vintage:Ethnic, Tribal:Mexican
This is an unusual bangle bracelet in that it is concave......I hope you can see what I mean when you look at the pictures......everyone I have shown it to so far has really liked it because it is different from any bangle they have seen before. It is made of sterling silver, is 5/16" wide and the inside opening is 2-1/2" across......so you need small hands and wrists to wear it. The mark is double stamped because they had to stamp it on the curve, but I can read "Taxco Mexico 925" and what I ...

$180 USDGorgeous vintage topaz rhinestone parure, unsigned Kramer
Jewelry:Vintage:Sets
Unsigned, but I am researching it still. Update: I received an email from a nice person saying that she has seen this necklace signed 'Kramer', so I am pretty safe in saying that it is unsigned Kramer.......that makes a lot of sense to me as the design, quality of stones and construction are very indicative of 1950's Kramer. The quality of design, construction and materials tells me that it is probably one of those sets by a known company who did not sign all the pieces. The earrings are clip ...

German silver filigree scorpion brooch with 'C' clasp YOU still have time to get this cute brooch before that Scorpio birthday rolls around!

$24 USDTAXCO Mexico sterling silver 925 engravable bracelet, TS-130
Jewelry:Vintage:Ethnic, Tribal:Mexican
Marked on the back, "TS-130, MEXICO, 925", this is, to me, and unusual style for Taxco bracelets. The front plaque is blank and ready to be engraved, the bracelet is opened to put on by gently squeezing it and it comes unhooked on one side of the central plaque. The width of the convex bracelet band is 1/8", the inside of the opening is 2-1/2" and 1-7/8". The plaque measures 1" X 3/4". In great vintage condition with the only flaw I see being that the bracelet band is slightly out of round.
$50 USDJ.J. holiday jewelry set of one brooch and a pair of earrings
Jewelry:Vintage:Costume:Holiday
This set is unmarked but is shown in the book, "Christmas Pins Past and Present, 2nd edition" by Jill Gallina, and is identified as older pieces by J.J.. They are in very good condition, the earrings have clip backs and the pin has a safety clasp on the back. One unusual thing is that on the back, the pin is silver-tone, and the backs of the earrings are gold-tone. It doesn't show from the front so is just an oddity. The pin is 1-3/4" tall, the earrings are 1-1/4" tall. I am clearing out my own ...
