Mint condition, period Tiffany Studios Zodiac bronze match holder  in an outstanding green and brown patina. The match holder measures approximately 4.25" x 4.25" on the base and rises to a height of 3.75". The piece is properly marked on the bottom Tiffany Studios New York 1041.  $400.00
BT001 New Listing! Rare L. C. Tiffany  8.5" high Tel El Amarna vase with magnificent and highly detailed top decoration in iridescent colors of blue/purple, gold/cranberry, and green. Tel El Amarna vases were extremely hard to manufacture with over 90% cracked or fractured in the firing process, making perfect ones even more rare and commanding astronomical prices. This example does have a minor internal fracture on the lower portion, just above the base and where the glass curves inward. It is very difficult to see this fracture when the vase is standing upright in normal light, so we had to take it outside into sunlight and hold it at an angle to photograph it. The combination of the location (low) and the way it blends into the green makes it hard to see absent close examination and light at a certain angle. This is a great opportunity to own and enjoy a period Tiffany Studios Tel El Amarna vase at a price that is within reach for many collectors. Properly marked on the bottom L C Tiffany Favrile 6458 E. A real work of art and almost impossible to find. Guaranteed to be period Tiffany. /2800   SOLD

Wonderful period LC Tiffany Favrile gold iridescent decorated vase standing approximately 7" high and 3.5" wide at the widest point. The vase has a beautiful iridescence and a unique shape bulbous at the top and narrowing at the bottom. The decoration is quite well done and separates works like this from more common plain Tiffany iridescent works. The bottom is properly marked L.C.T. 1103. The vase is in mint condition save a tiny chip on the bottom of the vase approximately 0.5" long and less than 0.25" wide. It just barely rises about 0.10" above the bottom of the vase on the edge but does not rise above the flared bottom, so it is not noticeable when the vase stands upright. Guaranteed to be period L. C. Tiffany Favrile glass. The orange color in the photograph is more a flash reflection; the vase is a gold iridescent glass with lighter gold coloration at the top and darker gold highlights outlining the top decoration.  $2200.00

Thai or Chinese aged bronze Buddha displaying the samadhi mudra, or the gesture of absolute balance of meditation, with both hands placed on the lap, fingers touching and the palms facing upwards. The styling is characteristic of the late Sukhothai period; late 14th - early 15th centuries. Thai Buddha statues of this period display the full influences of Sri Lanka arts as an increasingly prosperous Siam (Thailand) adopted the Lanka sect of Buddhism. This impressive older replica of an ancient Buddha measures approximately  6.75" high and 5.0" wide, and 4.5" deep. A charming piece of Buddhist devotional art at a great price, from a St. Louis, MO estate full of Asian art.     $225.00

Rare and unique set of C. Voltz French redware, all in mint condition and all properly marked. Voltz work is substantial and heavy and uses high quality clay, and the unique and lustrous red glaze is truly brilliant. Also, with this particular set, we think you'll agree that it's also quite a design statement. 1. Set of 5 coffee cups and saucers, the cups standing 2.5" high and just over 3" in diameter while the saucers are 6.5" in diameter. Price includes set of 5 cups and saucers. 2. Set of 5 Voltz salad plates 7.75" in diameter. 3. Voltz open sugar, the bottom slightly larger in diameter (4.0") than the top opening (3.25") for a nice effect. It stands approximately 2.25" high. 1. SOLD

New listing, and what a listing it is! Rare pinched and iridized lava flow art glass vase, probably Loetz Austria, is in mint condition with absolutely no chips or damage of any kind. This high quality example of Loetz early 20th century production stands approximately 7.5" high and is pinched on three sides for some added flair. In fact, the pinching also helps to capture the light, bringing even more to life the incredibly vivid colors of blue, purple, gold, and others which differentiate the iridescence of this magnificent vase. Loetz combines subtle but innovative forms with very advanced techniques in the use of color and artistic methods such as feathering. The top opening of the vase measures 3.75" in diameter and the base measures 3.5" in diameter; it flares to about 5.5" wide at the widest point. Unmarked like most Loetz and in mint condition, plus free shipping is included within the lower 48 states. rb $650.00

Excellent condition Daum Nancy glass bowl in the Art Deco style, c. 1930. This is a real beauty of hand blown glasswork, so different from the cameo glass Daum produced mostly earlier in the century. It's decorated with flowing lines around the entire perimeter of the bowl, and interspersed are mottled circular areas that really stand out and afford a type of three dimensional depth to the piece. The bowl measures approximately 6.0" high, 4.0" in diameter at the top, and about 8.0" in diameter at the widest point. It is properly marked on the lower rim of the base Daum Nancy France along with the Cross of Lorraine.     $850.00

New listing! Vintage stick pin pin in 14k gold with real rose cut diamonds and pearls decorating this unique turn of the century piece. During that period, older Victorian era stick pins were reset into larger pins comprising multiple of the Victorian pins and which were thus more striking and visible on the hat or lapel. The great thing is how elaborate many Victorian stick pins were, inclusive of precious gemstones and fine enamel work. This piece has a royalty theme with the 14k gold crown inset with pearls, the coat of arms inset with rose diamonds, and the enamel coat of arms. Several of the individual pins have markings on the rear including the crown with 14k and a maker's mark on the leaf. It measures approximately 2.25" high and 1.75" wide at the widest point, and it's in excellent, original condition.   $525.00

Different from what we typically list on the Bigger Ticket pages, we wanted to make sure the maximum number of Collectics visitors saw these just in vintage Revo sunglasses with the extremely hard to find and sought after green tinted lens and bronze etched metal frame, model . These vintage Revo sunglasses were made back when Revo frames were made in Italy (so marked on frame) and the Revo lens were much higher quality relatively speaking than new, modern Revos. The frames themselves are as good as the lens on these vintage Revos, with tortoise shell sidebars leading to bronzed and etched metal corner hinges that have "Revo" raised in the metal. It was impossible to capture in a photo, but the entire surface of the metal frame holding the lens are etched for a subtle but effective additional measure of design flair. These vintage sunglasses are in very good condition with only the most minor lens scratches and marked on the sidebars of the frame 1207/010, "Frame Italy", and additional markings. They measure approximately 5.0" wide with 5.5" long sidebars and lens 1.75" x 1.5" and with no case. Great buy and won't last! $185.00

Large pair of 19th century English Staffordshire bisque porcelain figurines in the Romantic style of a young boy and young girl. The girl carries two spouted buckets, wears a lavender rose trimmed skirt, laced bodice, light blue puffed sleeves, and standing on a green foliate base trimmed in gold. The boy wears rolled up pink trousers and blue shirt with flower trim and tan sash, carrying two buckets and standing on a matching green foliate base with gold trim. Note the 19th century detail in the faces, the trim of the outfits, and the finely textured rendering in the bisque porcelain. Both are marked on the bottom with the stylized knot mark used by early English manufacturers in the Staffordshire region. Rarest of all, both of these figural pieces are in mint condition, almost unheard of for pieces of this age still on the open market. They are both large, standing a full 18" high on bases which are approximately 5.5" in diameter. Excellent examples of early porcelain artistry in Europe. rb $1500.00

Vintage Swiss Corum 18k gold watch with diamonds and sapphires trimming each side of the crystal, made for and sold by the famous New York City jeweler Van Cleef & Arpels. Corum was founded in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland where the company commitment is to "superb craftsmanship combined with the endless search for beauty and innovation."  Each side of the watch face is lined with 4 sapphires and 3 diamonds, and this piece has great period styling but is still perfect to wear today. The gold bracelet exhibits quality craftsmanship, a tight weave which is very well done. A real beauty, the watch measures approximately 7.25" long and the face itself is approximately 0.75" x 0.75". The watch is in excellent shape excepted for a crack in the crystal, easily replaced. The face of the watch is marked Corum and Van Cleef & Arpels, and the rear of the watch is marked with the manufacturer's mark and 11165. The inside of the clasp is marked Corum, 760, and 18k   $1250.00

Monumental exotic Belgian porcelain covered jar or urn c. early to mid 1900s has so many fine features we really don't know where to start. Made by Boch Freres, a well known Belgian ceramic maker, this covered urn or jar (ginger jar?) is in a pattern called Vieux Rhodes which has matching dinnerware if you are lucky enough to ever find it. The size of the piece struck us first, standing a full 16.0" high and 9.0" in diameter at the widest point; the opening without the top cover is approximately 4.5". We love the rich, vibrant colors and the exotic landscape of colorful flowers, ferns, a peacock, birds flying overhead, and the dog perched on top of the covered jar adds that final bit of unique flair. The jar has subtle ridges which we find a lot more interesting than smooth vessels of this shape because the little indents help catch light and make the porcelain surface really shimmer. The interior of the porcelain has a subtle blue shade to it, and we believe this to be polychromed Delftware. It's fully and properly marked on the bottom with the Vieux Rhodes Boch "Handworked" mark, and it's in excellent condition and part of a major Greenwich, CT estate collection of antique ceramics; cross listed on Porcelain 1.   $325.00

Beautiful, elegant, and rare German Art Deco porcelain soup tureen by KPM c. 1920. Note the ridged blue and gold trim surrounding the piece midpoint and the fantastic art deco styled top and side handles. Note how the middle turns inward every few inches in the way the porcelain was made and decorated...it's a small detail, but it catches the eye. Large at 15.5" long, 9.25" wide, and approximately 11" high with the lid on, this rare soup tureen is in near mint condition with only a tiny, tiny chip on  the interior edge of the lid (look closely in the photo). The bottom has numerous KPM marks of the Royal Porcelain Manufactory, also known as the State's Porcelain Manufactory used from 1832. You would be guaranteed to pay more even if you could find one in your local antique mall. rb $450.00

Very finely done oil painting of a serene early evening village scene set against the banks of a small river and evoking a European feel. We love the cool warm blue colors that dominate this painting, and the artsit's technique is quite interesting in contrasting rectangles of paint application done with putty knife type tools as seen in the water with fine, elongated brush strokes that comprise the sky. It's a visually very appealing work that is a perfect complement to most any home decor, and the colors of blued, grays, reds, and yellows with white highlights are very vibrant and exude a calming feeling. The painting is artist signed in the top right corner by Tom Abram, and it's very nicely framed in a wood frame with a black band that really sets off the painting- framed by Grand Central Artists Materials in New York City and retaining their original paper label on the rear. The canvas and frame are both in very good condition, and framed the piece measures approximately 27.5" x 23.5". Priced to sell, it comes to you right off the wall of a major Greenwich, CT horse country estate; cross listed on Art 2.  $475.00

BT020 New listing! Probably the best hair comb we've ever offered for sale, this stunning and elaborate vintage haircomb measures a monumental 8.0" high and a span of a full 6.0"! Intricate wire work comprises the upper portion of this super fine comb, appearing as if petals of a flower and each intricate petal crowned by an inset faux pearl in the center. Each of the 8 individual stalks is individually wired, and then there's a nice detail in the center wherein each of the 8 strands are connected and wired together with faux pearl accents between the individual wires. Each of the petals can move on its wire to subtly alter the shape or look if you so desire- note how we moved one petal in the photograph. A wire bow of identical design crowns the top of the 2 celluloid prongs, each a full 4.5" long. Words really can't describe properly the hand working and craftsmanship that you see in this elaborate and intricate accessory. The entire hair comb is in good condition with only a minor internal stress fracture visible under close examination in the celluloid, and it comes to you sure not to last long and direct from a Hilton Head, SC estate collection of fine vintage plastic jewelry; cross listed on Bakelite 1. /175 SOLD
