Hello Everyone,
I went to two sales on Friday. At the first, I took a chance on two high price items. I paid 50% above melt for them after negotiating for a while and chatting with lady running the sale.
They are both from the estate of a former US diplomat to Nepal and Bangladesh. (Second time I've bought items from former diplomats in past few weeks) They were purchased sometime between 1930 and 1960. She will be sending me more details.
The first is a sterling silver, square and highly decorative box. The images on each side are unique. The last picture is the makers mark. Any idea on language or better yet meaning? It is asian but does not look Chinese.
The second is a heart shaped box. Higher than sterling. I cannot tell if the design in the second pic is a markers mark or just part of the design.
At the second sale, which I was late to I found the headphones and a super clean, 100% original 1986 Fiji "Club" bike. I am pretty sure selling them will pay of the lot. Thanks for looking and really appreciate any info on the boxes.
