I too have the happy ability to find metal objects without a magic wand. My finds, or eyeballs don't seem to be as refined as yours. What a great Nouveau Lady & her older sister: Thanks for the larking. (in reply to Digswithstick) Post #: 15

Man those are some beauties, though I'm having a little trouble eyeballing the Lady in the Ashtray... Is the Lady out front, with the blond braids, enamelled? That looks to be an old find. You've got some Great Ladies, but I bet you hear that all the time. (in reply to Digswithstick) Post #: 17

RE: Metal Larking USA :) - 2/1/2010 12:57:05 AM    surfaceone Posts: 7132 Joined: 12/9/2008 Status: offline quote: How old would you say ? Hey Rick, "I dunno," is the short answer. The lady in question appears to be in late 17th Century costume. Renaissance styles seem to come and go in jewelry fashion. It appears to be a finely wrought piece. Is the back copper? What age or context is she from? I'm getting a Germanic vibe from her. Do'ya think it was part of a locket. She appears to be gazing fondly to her left, as if there were a missing gentleman... Maybe I'm reading too much into it. She shows up on my monitor about the size of a half dollar. You might take her on an outing to the local museum or an estate type jeweler and get mo'betta information... She is a lovely lady, I wish I could tell you more.

Does late 16th Century sound better. From here. I also note that she is gazing to her "right," my "left." The other left, it's "right." (in reply to surfaceone) Post #: 20
