Retro WMF Ikora Silver Plate Creamer & Sugar w/ Bright Purple Interiors ~ Very cool creamer and sugar set made of heavy metal, which I believe is silver plate. The piece measure about 3" high. The tray is about 8.75" long. The sugar & creamer are marked "Denmark", have a shiny exterior finish, and a really beautiful bright purple metallic interior. The tray has a "Germany" mark and an interesting swirled satin finish on the bottom. I assume these items were originally a set, but I have no way of knowing this for certain. In any case, the creamer/sugar and tray look wonderful together. All pieces have some age wear and tarnish, but no significant flaws. Based on the design, maker's marks, and colors, I would estimate this was made circa the 1940's to 1960's. Very neat! |

Huge! Solid Brass Parrot Topped Bell ~ Isn't this a GREAT piece? This solid and very heavy brass bell is topped with an open-mouthed parrot, and has a terrific loud ring. It stands nearly 9" tall and weighs over 1.5 pounds! The only evident flaw is that the bird has been re-soldered to the bell base, off center and slightly tilted in the side view. (See the grayish color weld between the bird and bell in the photo.) I didn't even notice this until I looked inside the bell and saw that the clapper ball chain had been re-attached. A very unique piece believed to be vintage. An excellent conversation piece and addition to your parrot or general bird item collection! |

Unique Old Cast Metal ( Iron ?) Horse ~ Dish ? Ashtray ? WHAT is it? ~ I bought this really great old piece a few years ago just because the regal looking horse caught my eye. But... what the heck is it? I would guess ashtray, but it doesn't have any cigarette indents. Or, it might have had a porcelain or glass insert at one time. I've been using it to hold my jewelry at night on the dresser. I suppose it would also serve well as a change dish, serving piece, candle holder.... or ??? It is very heavy, and is some sort of cast metal, possibly iron. The base looks to have been gold at one time. The bottom has an old piece of worn green felt to protect your tabletop. Approximate dimensions are 7" tall and 7" at the widest point of the base. No visable damage or repairs, but it does have extensive patina, wear, and scratches from years of being loved by it's owners (me included)! |

Tall Ornate Brass Candlesticks ~ A really great pair of solid brass candlesticks, believed to be early 20th century. There is enough variation between them (size, shape) to indicate they were either hand-made or at least hand embellished to some degree. The pair weighs 3 pounds, 10 ounces and measure about 10 1/2" tall. Both are beautifully decorated with etched flowers and line designs. There is candle wax residue in the holes, and polish and/or tarnish on the bottoms. Some very minor scratches and dings from use, but otherwise in excellent condition. |
