Lillian if you google images on tiny rhinestone violin you will find a few sites that sell those overseas. Roughly $17.00 Australian. As to how it landed in your cough drops I dont know LOL. Maybe one of the packagers in the plant.

This was a very unexpected find. I've had  a cold and cough for a while and decided get a bag of cough drops. I was about half way through the bag and reach in to get another and found this pin. It's 1.5" long, enameled surface and rhinestones on the neck. Now how a piece of jewelry got in a bag of cough drops is a mystery to me - the clasp on the back was in a closed position, not like a bagger was wearing it and it fell into one bag of lozenges.

Thanks Vicki, I have searched high and low on replacements.com and many other sites, nothing quite like it....

Not nessasarily - You just need to state that you do not know what it is. There are lots of experienced eyes there, as you know, so they might be able to tell you right away what it is. Or at least give it a great chance of discovering the purpose of it. :)

I thought "Lets Guess What This Is" was for items you knew the purpose, but wanted others to guess.

@Aunty - Did you try searching for your pattern on replacements.com? That is the best place to find pattern names - though a bit tideious, you search under China-Myott- then look at all the differnt ones. I don't know that the pattern will make a big differnce value wise though. It's beautiful and looks to be in very good + condition - so I think it would sell for at least $25.

@ Lillian - Looks like some type of animal feeder - also looks like your missing something? try posting in Primitives or the "Lets guess what this is groups. Good Luck!

What is this? Not an antique, but I am curious about it. I found it in the cellar. The round part is 15" in diameter and the legs are 14" tall and it all metallic.

I have a Myott and Sons plate/handpainted that I just can't find anything similar to online. Does anyone have any ideas about the age/value, etc? Thanks so much!

ha john...when you take a picture of a shiny surface (glass on painting, mirror,etc.) stand at an angle and take your picture. That way the flash-back will bounce off the image and not back into your camera.

Try it my way with the signature. As it stands most of the signature is hidden in your flash back!
