Glass. Got too much, time to go. I’ve shipped it overseas intact before, so no worries.
Pen is for scale.
Blue bowl, no chips. Has gold flake in bottom trim and the official red Italian Murano glass sticker still on it. A few bubbles in the sides but hey, it’s blown glass and a guy’s gotta breathe so it happens.
Yellow bowl, no chips. Matching glass type to blue, no Murano sticker but gold flake in the upper trim.
Clear bird by “Seguso A.V.” who per Google is an Italian Murano glassmaker. No chips, signed on bottom.
Gold square layered paperweight with floral stripe. Yes real Murano tends to use real gold leaf. Sticker on bottom says “Murano Venezia Made In Italy”. I’ve 2 more in this style (same sticker too) and they’re great for papers, I’m just not into floral.
If your son can’t manage mask ties, tie both top straps to either end of a rubber band so it acts like an elastic that goes behind your whole head instead. Repeat with both lower straps. Then he just pulls it over his head and done. I had to do something like that with my mom’s because she’s pretty much one-handed after her stroke and her facility has rules they have to wear masks outside their apartments, and they ussed only tie strap ones. Now she just pulls it on her head like a Halloween mask and goes off to do laundry or sit outside.
Wow, dragonfeathers, that family drama mess sounds awful! Sending what good vibes I can your way.
And Kingbeast, that’s sad. Your art is amazing! Only fair if people have to pay for it.
Yes, white is the rubber Bella Sara. The other 2 with it are also but like you said, a bit different, lol (I learned with MLP that a little conditioner solves hair problems for such toys tho). The colors glabbed me, or the detail on the white and FF, stuff like that. And FF is best described as crazy, like a psychedelic dream, haha.
I’ll try getting a pic if the carved fish and PM you tomorrow. 🙂
Ok, horse spam (sorry, I don’t want to take this over, so this is all I’m putting up until other people put up more about theirs!). First Breyers and friends (I don’t know Breyers, I just liked these when I saw them, so feel free to tell me what they are!). Then 3 Bella Sara, white is the heavy poseable rubber one. Last is Final Fantasy Odin’s horse (blue and purple with 6 legs).
Love the dinos, Pips! I’ll try getting Bella Sara and FF horse pics up (Lalique goldfish is hiding in my safe right now and might need to wait for me to dig it out), maybe a couple others. I actually have a big carved goldfish I’d like to rehome, laquer red, if you like goldfish. 😉 I’ll try to put that pic here too.
Love the orange floral paperweight, Sherry! Sometimes I wonder how they manage that.
And Bodine, that’s a sparkly collection fit for an army of dragons to guard! ❤
Dragons. Not the Walmart kind tho I’ve a couple hiding among the rest I’m sure. More like McFarlane Dragon Series (got all but 2, my Hydra being one of them) and others along those lines. Tiamat (yep the big red old one) from the D&D series was my favorite as a kid and still with me. Fixed the one wing 3x now. Just what I find locally usually, but I’ve made some cool finds over the years, and there’s so many they get displayed in turns (the rest mentioned here do the same).
Got some horses and some ponies to reminisce about the days of old. Looking to unload a few ponies if someone wants some older ones in not the best shape. Just a handful of Breyers but they’re what I like and staying (2 bathtime ones and 2 big winddancers still in box but likely faded). A couple Bella Sara but hoping for more (damn hard to pick them out as they’re usually unmarked, but if you find the poseable heavy rubber ones, omg the detail!). Oh, found the 6 legged blue-purple Final Fantasy horse last year, just crazy awesome to look at.
Pretty glass and carved wood and such. Just what catches my eye. Some are paperweights, a couple glass fish including a limited edition goldfish by Lalique, a blue Daum France cat. A wooden elephant with bone inlay decor, another beautiful carved ele with exquisite detail, one made of white marble with semiprecious inlay. This is how I found the brass horse I put for sale in the nonwindstone ads. Cool stuff, doesn’t always suit me but some are still fun finds that I’ll happily rehome if anyone’s interested.
That’s the main collectives… lol.
Make me an offer (PM here, or FB). Or a trade offer. 😁 I need the shelf space for the next Windstone (or maybe I can put the hydra there for a while). Maybe we can reach an agreement.
