A big table full of gold!!

[theo]

Was at a yard sale today and the lady had a big table full of pitchers and bowls and all, they were all marked 22 k gold,, i think they were handpainted with gold? Can anyone tell me about these, can you get the gold off?

Those are some highly collectible pieces. i do believe there is a word for that style, it almost looks like drops of rain, but gold colored. if its cheap enough, buy it! I dont believe there is a huge amount of recoverable gold in it though

Yes you are right, look like big drops of rain but gold colored,, what do you call this stuff? On the bottom is marked 22 k and hand painted
