I was so excited with Todays Flea Market 4/29/18 Finds that I had to show off, even before cleaning, and searching! :^D
I know that there's sterling jewelry, an Orrefors Sweden Glass Bowl, a Rosenthal porcelain vase, a Fenton Glass Basket, a porcelain figurine doll marked on the bottom with an ink crown stamp with KPM under the crown, and a Davis Whiting USA mesh purse.
There's Costume paste Jewelry, Fun Jewelry, and Antique Jewelry, it looks like the great search is on! B^D
Let me know what you would like to see, please ask questions, because that will help me to post the things with more information, and detail! Thank you so much for looking, and all comments are welcome! :^)
Wow, you sure hit the jackpot today :). Nice finds!
Thank you Mrstyndall, it was seek, and find, most from one seller, but all from three different, and all for less then $100. There's even a 12k gold stick pin! :^D
Thanks for the love too! :^)
Wow-it’s all in the thrill of the hunt and getting a good bargain :)
Exciting haul Bill, so many beauties! I love the glass pieces you mentioned, the bracelets are lovely esp the two with red stones, and I'm an animal brooch gal so think your parrot, big eared bunny, & that gorgeous colorful enamel bird with green stone are to the max
I couldn't help myself! Jenni, I had to show! :^D That's the thing about picking through boxes of Jewelry, I pick out what I want, so I love it all! }:^D>
It was fun grabbing up what others had put down, and not really looking beyond "this is nice" Mrstyndall, and then finding out that there was a lot of sterling! Almost everything inside, and including the belt?/necklace, is sterling. The more I check it out the better it gets!
Thank you for your comment and the love Jenni, and thanks for the love too, aura, always nice to get! :^)
Hey Purvis, always good to have you stop by, and then i get a love too! None better then that! Thank you! :^)
Hello AdeleC, thank you so much for the love! :^)
So hard to pick a favorite.. Those groovy Santa earings are very cute..
I know Tlsweat7203, so I pick them all! :^D Yes the "Walk Like An Egyptian" Santa, couldn't pass them up! Thanks for your comment :^)
Thank you all for taking the time to stop by to see this great find of mine, and giving some love, for what you saw,

Thank you Eileen, it's in Concord, Calif., every weekend, but not always this good! :^D I wish, that I would've bought all of it, but wasn't planning on it being so cheap, I actually gave the seller more than he asked for it, because it was such a good buy, and that's really rare for this thrifty guy(me) to do! :^o
I think most of the things that he was selling, had been in storage for a long time, and he just grabbed boxes, and brought them out to sell to make room for something that he was going up to Washington, to pick up, so he didn't really know, or care, about it, he just wanted to make a little cash, and get rid of it, and has been known for doing that! Good for everyone!
That red stone bracelet, of course caught my eye, and again I was surprised, that no one grabbed it, but I tend to get down and dig, and most just flip through and leave! Thank you! Thank you! I'll take that! :^)
Hey Brian, and Tigra, thank you for looking, and loving! :^)
Wow Bill!! What great finds you have there! Well done:-)
Nothing like that ever happens here lol! So many pieces I love......the birds and rabbit and earrings.....all wonderful!
Looks like you kicked some flea market butt today!!! Nice going. Love the Santas!
Judy and shareurpassion, what great comments from the both of you! :^D It doesn't happen like this too often, but I hope you can tell, that I really enjoy it, when it does! It's like Christmas in April! *<]:^{D>
Thank you both for your comments, and for your love! I just can't get enough! :^)
What an amazing haul! I love the bird brooches and the bracelet below the one with the red stones. The necklace with the ivory-colored cubes- are those Bakelite?
Good Morning Laura, and thank you, for your comment! :^D Yes the birds are great, not silver, and need a little work, but I can't wait to see them all after cleaning! B^o I think that necklace, the little green bead one, by the doll, and the green bar brooch, are all Bakelite, but I really haven't checked them.
Thanks for stopping by, and giving some love, mikelv85, and Laura(betweenthelens), it's much appreciated! :^)
Hey Mary, good to see you, I thought you would have seen this sooner, I know how you love jewelry! :^D I haven't see Bonnie yet, she'll be here to check them out though! Like I said earlier, in the post, because this wasn't just a grab and run, the things that I got were things that I liked, and wanted to see better, but really should've bought the whole lot, and had a hay day of checking them all out! B^o
I'll clean them, and post with better photographs, and information about them, if I can find, or see it. The bowling "pins", are that! Little collar pin backs, made of wood, you know why those caught my eye! I don't do much repair, but there are some rhinestones missing, that will need work. All in all, I love them too! :^D
Thank you, for your nice comment, and the love you give Mary, always appreciated! :^)
My work hours are very flexible too . . . oh that's right I'm retired, this is the only work I do! &:^}
Thanks Mary, I sometimes spend too much time looking through boxes of stuff, and end up with nothing, but this time it paid off! :^D
The teal green are glazed pottery planter/pot stands I guess, I found some older unglazed ones at a yard sale in Santa Rosa, Calif. earlier this year, they come in threes, at least that's what I think, and hold the planter/pot up off a deck, or the ground to let it drain better. I couldn't find any, or didn't look too hard, that's what I think they are and I'm sticking to it! :^D Maybe I'll post both sets, and show how they look in use! :^)
Thank you for stopping by Pascal, and for the love, it's always good to get! :^)
Besides all your other way-too-cool treasures here, I'm still loving that little black ceramic (?) hand thing (a ring holder, or ???) in the middle top of your 1st/4th pics, since the very 1st time I looked at this post...? :-) :-) :-)
Thanks for your comment AnythingObscure, yes it's a porcelain ring/chain holder, marked on the bottom FISHS EDDY it's 7 3/8" tall. To me it's a little tight, between the fingers for rings, so maybe more of coffee table, or shelf art piece! :^D Here's a link to a Google image search for them:

They are pretty cool lookin though, like a mini latex glove mold! Hmmm, maybe I should post the large molds with this small one! :^)
Thank you for the love AnnaB! :^)
