Vintage Hummel Jewelry Box Music Box


*SOLD* This gorgeous little box is a combination jewelry box and music box. It has Swiss movement by Cuendet that plays Lara's Theme from Dr. Zhivago (so I assume it is from the mid-1960's, since that movie came out in 1965), and it has a pin that makes the music start playing when the right side of the lid is opened, and stop when it closes. The music box works perfectly!


The box itself is about 7 x 4 inches, and has two Hummel images on the lids. There is a little boy on the right and a little girl on the left, and they are both sitting on fences - there are black birds (crows? ravens?) in both images. The inside of the box has two compartments that are lined in red velvet. The right side is shallower because of the music box underneath it. This box has a lovely rounded shape and sweet pointed feet. It is in great vintage condition, with no chips, cracks, or other damage that I can see. The wood is beautiful and glossy, with only a few tiny scratches and scuffs. The velvet is a little worn inside, but not damaged. Amazing condition for its age! This is a gorgeous heirloom quality jewelry and music box!

Scalloped Silver Serving Dish


*SOLD!* This beautiful silver dish features 3 sections and deep scalloping with a central curved decorative handle. It was manufactured by Lunt Silver in New England, USA sometime in the midcentury. It has a stylized leaf shape and a beautiful midcentury aesthetic to it, and it is in wonderful vintage/used condition, with no chips, cracks, dents, or other damage. It has some very light scuffing and a couple of light scratches on the handle - not bad for being over 50 years old! I polished it up, and the finish looks great, in awesome condition with a beautiful lustre.

This dish measures 10 x 10 inches and the handle is 3 1/2 inches high. Please see photos for condition. This is a nice heavy, quality piece of heirloom silver plate. You can purchase this silver serving dish now at www.ecoquirky.com

Frog and Turtle Tealight Holders


*SOLD!* This pair of small ceramic animals are made of lightweight, rough textured ceramic (it feels like unglazed ceramic). I think they are lightweight because they are hollow (see photo of hole in bottoms). The frog has a bumpy texture and the turtle has a beautiful geometric texture on its shell. These are so cute, and fit tealights in their backs. Each animal measures 2 inches tall and about 5 inches long. Tealights not included.

These are in great vintage/used condition, with no chips, cracks, or other damage. Their rustic, weathered appearance is intentional. When you look at them in the light, the dark gray color is actually kind of metallic, almost coppery. These are very pretty little tealights!

Silver Plated Footed Creamer with Lid


This little pot could either be a small teapot or a large creamer, but either way it is stamped Silver On Copper on the bottom, so it's silver plated. The pot measures 4 inches high, about 5 1/2 inches with the lid on. It is about 6 inches long from spout to the end of the handle. This little pot is in great used/vintage condition, with no cracks or dents. It has some scratching in various places, but overall the finish looks great. There is some tarnish, especially in the ornate details of the handle and feet. There are a couple of dark spots inside the pot and a couple of small dings on the spout. I have no idea how old it is or who made it. It is heavy and nice, probably heirloom, quality, and has a beautiful shine!

It is made of heavy, thick glass.

This dish is in great vintage/used condition, with no chips or cracks, or other damage.

Large Cobalt Blue Swirled Indiana Glass Vase


 

This gorgeous cobalt blue vase has a nearly 3 inch opening, large enough for nice full flower arrangements. It has a swirl pattern in the glass, which concentrates the deep cobalt blue color at the bottom, and makes it gently lighten towards the top - it's subtle and beautiful! I believe this was made by Indiana Glass Co, as they make vases with a similar swirl, although this one does not have its original sticker. This vase measures just over 7 inches high and has a 5 inch diameter at its widest. It is in good vintage/used condition, with no chips or cracks or other damage. This vase barely shows any wear at all, maybe the tiniest bit of scuffing from normal use, but it is almost flawless.
