Coro Black Cameo in Goldtone Sunburst Setting

$35 USDCoro Black Cameo in Goldtone Sunburst Setting

Jewelry:Vintage:Costume:Signed:Coro
Another pick from my personal collection. I love the contrast between this small black plastic cameo and the radiant gold setting around it. Far from being overwhelming, this tends to focus the eye right in the center of the piece, right on the cameo itself. Pin measures 1 7/8ths inches across. Condition is very good. Finish appears to have had some sort of blackened antiqued coating that hasn't held very well over time. Pin has a safety clasp and there is a hidden loop to wear this as a pendant ...
REDUCED German Jasper Ware Moriage Type Tea Set White on Green

$65 USD ReducedREDUCED German Jasper Ware Moriage Type Tea Set White on Green

Pottery
Three Piece German Jasper Ware Moriage Type Tea Set White on Green. Teapot, Creamer, Sugar. Teapot is marked 1641, creamer or milk jug 1642, and sugar bowl 1643 - probably mold or shape numbers. No other markings. Sugar has a 1/2" glazed over clay artifact (lump) in bottom. Also some staining to the sugar bowl as shown in photo - unsure how permanent this is, but the other side looks fine. Small deformity and glaze "miss" on rim of sugar bowl (looks like a chip in the photo, but is not.)Teapot ...

SALE Butler and Wilson Gnome, Elf or Dwarf Pin

$65 USD SaleSALE Butler and Wilson Gnome, Elf or Dwarf Pin

Jewelry:Vintage:Costume:Signed:Butler & Wilson
This pin is a bit of a puzzle to me. It's marked B&W on an applied circular disk on the back, but also bears a mark (A 1927) that makes me think the design may have originally belonged to another company. We've debated over whether he's one of Santa's helpers, a very colorful leprechaun, one of Snow White's dwarves, or a garden gnome. Whatever he is, he's a charmer, dressed in a rainbow of enamel colors and sporting a sparkling rhinestone beard. Approximately 2 inches tall. Excellent condition.

So dapper in his little black enamel bow tie and pave crystal or rhinestone belly! And such pretty blue eyes!

Marked on back: Carolee.

$29 USD ReducedREDUCED Cascading Pin or Brooch - Damascene Leaves with Faux Pearls

Jewelry:Vintage:Costume:Figural
Unusual damascene pin is accented with three faux (?) pearls down the center. No marks to indicate place of origin, but these are usually either from Spain or Japan (yes, really).

Extremely Interesting Stone Fish Pin

$25 USDExtremely Interesting Stone Fish Pin

Jewelry:Vintage:Costume:Figural
We think this is soapstone, but are not absolutely certain, so if anyone has any thoughts on that, we'd love to hear them. Stone has a slightly greenish hue. The pin back is also of a type I've never seen before. I'm tempted to say this may be from some northwestern native American maker, but there are no marks of any kind that I can find. Approx. 2 1/2 inches x 3/4 inch at the widest point. Definitely a conversation starter!

English Art Deco Paragon Bowl and Saucer

$25 USD Offers ConsideredEnglish Art Deco Paragon Bowl and Saucer

Porcelain
I bought this quite a few years ago as a cup and saucer, but have since come to believe that it may actually be a sugar bowl and saucer. I think it would look very pretty filled with berries on a breakfast tray. It's very pretty, whatever it is, and a lovely example of English art deco tea wares. No gilt, but trimmed in a lovely robins egg blue instead, and decorated with lovely sunny yellow and dove gray flowers. Marked with the Paragon by Appointment royal crest. and the words Made in England.

David Winter Cottages - The Christmas-Time Clockhouse Premier

$250 USDDavid Winter Cottages - The Christmas-Time Clockhouse Premier

Collectibles:Decorative:David Winter
1994 Limited edition numbered #2138/3500. 4.88in. x 4.38in. x 9in. Very special, beautiful Christmas cottage. A visitor seems to have left some pretty wrapped presents under the decorated and snow frosted Christmas tree. Someone's been tromping about on the roof and it looks like he might have gone down the chimney! Could it have been Santa? Someone else has made a snow angel in the back yard. A couple of small flecks of missing paint on the base and one or two tiny fleabites on the tips of a ...
SALE Edwardian Shell Cameo with Seed Pearl Frame

$55 USD SaleSALE Edwardian Shell Cameo with Seed Pearl Frame

Jewelry:Vintage:Cameo:Shell
I'm really guessing at the age on this one, but I think I'm pretty close. Open back frame appears to be gold plated or filled. Safety catch may have been a later addition, but was done cleanly and professionally (no solder globs!) Pin stem extends slightly beyond edge of piece, but not as far as most Victorian items that I've had. Loop that holds the safety chain might also be useable for a light chain to wear this as a necklace, as it's well centered at the top of the frame. Pearls are probably ...
REDUCED David Winter Christmas Cottage - The Scrooge Family Home Premier

$155 USD ReducedREDUCED David Winter Christmas Cottage - The Scrooge Family Home Premier

Collectibles:Decorative:David Winter
1994 Limited edition marked #1882/3500 CF. Described on the insert as "a grand and substantial house", the boyhood home of Scrooge, although according to the Dickens story, Scrooge spent most of his time not at home, but at boarding school. I love all the little details on this piece, from the figured brickwork in the chimney to the tiny Christmas wreath hung over the arched entry to the courtyard. Retired December 31, 1994. Backstamp on cottage itself actually reads 1993, we assume representing ...

REDUCED Gorgeous Parquetry Wood or Wooden Fish Pin

$35 USD ReducedREDUCED Gorgeous Parquetry Wood or Wooden Fish Pin

Jewelry:Vintage:Costume:Figural
Tricky trout? Sensuous salmon? Beautiful bass? Wish I knew more about fish! Don't know what kind he is, but the colors are gorgeous! Each colored section is a separately cut piece of wood. We're not actually sure if they're different woods or if they're just stained different colors. These pieces are meticulously assembled - you really have to look closely to know that it's not one solid piece. Measures approx. 3 inches long. You should have seen the one that got away! Age unknown. Pin finding ...
