Nice finds, I really like the old fireplace grate. It does have that arts & crafts look to it. :occasion14:
 

Thx Dig! I cant believe when I asked the lady how much she wanted for that grate and she said 10 bucks, and then I asked her for the indian stone and she replied 5 bucks? I also got the crocks there 30 ea to add to my collection..
 

$5 for the mortar? Wow! Is it real? That's a big money piece!
 

Yup 5 dollars, and It looks to be real, but the bad thing I don`t have the pestle . These often turn up with farmers discing up there fields here in Ca . The estate I got it from had antiques and collectibles..

You lucky dog. Just judging from ebay results, prices are all over the place. But if you got $500 for that one, I wouldn't be shocked. It looks really nice worked.
