Found a fabulous antique Vanderslice "Comstock" coin silver soup spoon in a bargain box at the flea market. Engraved "Seth", it's now in my Etsy store.
Letting go of one of my antique sterling silver purses...an R. Blackinton card/dance purse. Even with a few dents around the edges she's a beauty. Listed for $250 in my Etsy store.
I am so lame at instagram, but it do love vintage things and this French brass and enamel cross is fabulous. Now in my Etsy store for $90.
Old hand-carved alabaster vessel. Likely Egyptian. Very cool. Tempted to keep.

The fine print…
