I love looking through stuff, and have sold a thing or two. I have lots more stuff to sell off, but haven't got around to it! I bought a tiny basket at a flea market a few years ago, and knew very little about it, but got it for $1.00 noting it was signed and numbered before I bought it. Cute, but the type of thing the cats would chew for fun. I researched it some, and found out it was a Longerberger basket from PA. I sold it for $30.00! I have an oriental cat that I'm putting on soon. I've seen them go for as much as $150.00! (Kutani cat). Not my style, and to think I almost pitched it as I thought it was kind of ugly! Your new lamp is beautiful! It would last less than a day here! Unless I superglued every crystal on, and the shade etc. to the surface!
