Ok just one more. This is a paperweight brought back from France during WW1. It has a sulphide of Woodrow Wilson inside. Can anyone tell me anything about it?
Nice, I especially like the acorn and oak leaf dish. We've made the white oak a symbol of our 1883 house. There's a huge white oak growing too close to the house but I wont cut it down. Also inside were a lot of those acorn style clothes hooks and one of the light shades has the acorn and oak leaf pattern. I since found three more (two intact in the bottom of a dumpster) and an old four light fixture I think they might have been on which I'd like to fix up. I acid etched a couple transom? windows with leaves and an acorn to put over our two front doors and painted an oak leaf on our entrance sign. Again, nice glass - I love all kinds!
Here's that light fixture I was talking about, I think the shades were from something like it. I would love to know what the 10 inch shade that's missing in the middle looked like. If I restore it I might just get one and paint oak leaves and acorns on it.
