Hi all,
Hope everybody is well and enjoying spring weather. I am feeling much better - more like me again. Went to an auction yesterday and saw an interesting piece of Dugan. It was an amethyst carnival bowl with a ruffled and beaded rim in the "Farm Yard" pattern. I don't know a thing about carnival but the word was that this is a rare piece. I guess so because it sold for $2100.00.
I was happy to pick up a pair of Pairpoint vases and a couple of Sandwich glass perfumes.
This auction had a great collection of antique Chinese pieces. I don't know anything about Chinese art and pottery but it was just stunning. They had a rare 5 piece set of gorgeous Chinese silver bowls that sold for $21,000! It was a lot of fun just watching this one. It was the first auction I attended in a while and I really enjoyed all the auction and truly beautiful things like oriental rugs and antique furniture. Also- a collection of hundreds of pieces if Wedgwood jasperware.
A good day with my dh and I was so glad to be back on my feet.
Goodnight all,
Nancyjean
