Things are
still very slow, but at least yesterday I sold a winter coat that a friend gave
to me and I have two pick-ups scheduled for tomorrow. I hope nothing gets
canceled this time.
With the
sweater of last week, at the beginning of Spring I sold two winter items in a
row that have been waiting all season. You just never can tell!
I did my homework
and found a link to the most likely original seller of my Turkish glass jar:
To give an
indication, TL 850 is about USD 295…
Knowing
that I’m getting less comfortable with having to store and wait long for good bids for all the delicate stuff
as it’s not likely going to go fast. Most of the visitors of the local
classifieds site I use are looking for 5-20 euro stuff and that’s what I have
and enjoy trading.
Like
another huge clay planter. Picked up on my favourite curb in October and sold
immediately for a too low bid, but I wanted it out before winter.
Or these
two that I got more for than expected.
So I may in
the end have to sell some of Mr. emigrants fine porcelain under its price:
This is
German, Rieber, Bavaria. It may have a chance as it’s renowned, but the gilding
of my set is not in mint condition all over.
These cups
and saucers are stamped Royal Darlington and I can’t find out anything about
it.
The guy
sure liked gild. This looks Japanese to me, but I can’t tell.
Last for
today, from Australia by Maxwell & Williams. It’s not vintage (stamped 2002) but the stuff
isn’t cheap. As it’s fairly sturdy I may try it at a market. Someone might fall
for the design without actually being on the lookout for a teapot.
Lucky there was some a bit more regular stuff as well. Things I can stash in my storage or even leave outside and flog at the car boot if it doesn't go. Later about that.

I love the blue tea pot, very chic! And one cannot have too many teapots lol
Hi Nathalie, thanks for visiting! Oh yes I'm a sucker for teapots! Got quite a collection, but I will let this one go for a good bid.
