Help with ID / terms ?

This is the kind of stuff I almost never deal with, simply because when i find it, is already expensive, or in terrible shape, or newer/low quality, and i have had bad experience selling beautiful things nobody wanted.

the plate thingy, is it safe to call this limoge (french tupperware) the center ceramic is signed fragonard

and the glass pumpkin, is it safe to call that murano vaseline ?

felt these worth rolling the dice on

Not sure. I guess if someone gets a bug up their keister of how you listed it, they'll send you a note or report your listing. I believe that green pumpkin is the blown art glass they sell at places like hobby lobby and I think the plate is a kind of lusterware. Not sure I'd call it limoge unless it's labeled as such.

I doubt the pumpkin is vaseline glass. Does the pumpkin glow under a black light? If not, then it wouldn't be considered vaseline or uranium glass. To me it looks like Murano wannabe. Probably made in Mexico or China.

The porcelain parts of the plate are Limoge, so calling it that wouldn't be an issue. The rest is probably gilded brass. It's a decent piece. Here is something similar by the same maker...

Duh, I thought that whole thing was ceramic with a gold luster finish. Dang, 51 bucks ain't to shabby.

i put it up for $200 or best offer. saw a smaller one sold for 120, and another is running right now for $300+ will see how it goes, it is 6lbs gilded brass, pretty substantial. as far as the pumpkin, looks like it is junk.

Man you got some good thrift stores down there. What's the brand on the gold watch.?
