Thanks, everybody! More bargains to come...

Called a Penny Seat. It's Victorian. I did not find one of yours on the web, but if you look at my page you will see a Penny Seat chair from the same era. Can you add a good photo of the bottom of th...

lugnuts - no did not polish it. That is the original patina.

britinpa - no, only what you see above in my narrative. You will have to post your item and a clear photo of the marks before anyone can tell you anything about it.

Yes, we negotiated a good price and she went away happy. Definitely not my kind of ring so was glad to sell it.

See narrative for an update!

Jenni - not rhinestones...diamonds....no rhinestones in an 18K pave' ring as far as I know.

No idea, but it's fabulous!

Lucky girl.....

Quality costume brooch! Nothing like the junk I see people trying to unload these days.

There doesn't seem to be any info on the web about the company, and I also checked ads selling Air Flex items. Nobody knows nuthin'.....

Maybe vintage and maybe not - that particular mark was used beginning in 1955. I would hazard a guess and say 1980s, give or take some years. Not possible to nail it down to a specific year.

No, not with that lobster clasp. Made not earlier than 1992. Not being magnetic only means there is no ferrous metals used in it's production. Can you edit your post and add a close up of the hang t...

Don't know a thing about it other than it's gorgeous!

Looks to be a typical export piece - the English language and the fact that the mark is put on with a rubber stamp. Not possible to tell you who made it. The Chinese letters are probably the equivalen...

A great buy! The mark is not obvious, but I found it.

Hi all! Been fine, just off doing other things. Scouring the flea markets and thrift shops for things overlooked by others in their hurry to find something "great". I did find another ring just like ...

LOL I see you already know who it is...time for coffee!! :-))))

We still need to see what the reverse side looks like - you can edit your post and add another photo.

Hi All! I'm baaaaaaack.....

freiheit - oh loads more fun! I dragged those necklaces around for two years at the markets trying to get rid of them. A woman who sold at the same summer market as me was complaining she was getting ...

That's a great find, indeed!

Vaga International was based in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. That's about 2 hours from my house. It's possible that the pottery was received as a blank from Italy and decorated at Vaga. Unfortunately, ...

Well, that's different. Is part of it Lucite?

@racer - my friend gets all sorts of interesting items in her shop. Only the really great stuff gets saved from the melting pot.

Gorgeous color! Congrats on your find. :-)))

Many of these sorts of toys are imported from Asia. Most likely Rabbit fur.

Really pretty! It's wonder these sorts of glass items manage to survive intact.

How cute is that!

A simple Google search of TM & MGA gave me this link: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20060331005227/en/MGA-Entertainment-Introduces-SODA-POP-GIRLS-TM

@Toyrebel: LMAO

https://www.houzz.com/product/8456999-fruit-bowl-fruit-on-wheels-by-arnout-visser-contemporary-fruit-bowls-and-baskets

Mystery solved!!

Oh Johnsmith, you are clever fellow!! I was looking on the name printed on the bowl for info....explains why I didn't find anything!

LMAO @Pascale!!

@lizzycbw - yes, glass.

You can upload a free magnifier to your smartphone which will help you to make better close ups. The mark looks like a running man.

@lugnuts - thanks much, but I know all about numerical gold marks and what they mean in regard to metal purity. Waarborg is the Dutch Assay Office. I might just have to email Waarborg to see if ther...

lizzycbw - it's VERY annoying!! Have not found it anywhere yet....boooooo....

I posted one two months ago which is very similar to yours, but with a bronze Lion's head.

Hey Hippie Guy! That is a great belt.
