Original box in wonderful undamaged condition for it's age and usage. These balls were the first real attempt to make billiard balls out of something other than ivory.

By 1920 new synthetic materials were the norm . These first versions were not made for long and are considered scarce . Usually only found at early sporting auctions. This offering only includes one ball , the plush insert and the original embossed box. These early balls are the equivalent of early golf balls . For the billiard enthusiast. PAC CODE ( 52007717 )

Special glasses were constructed to facilitate the experience. Often these glasses were frozen as well to maintain the coldness of the ice cream longer. Often confused with earlier Georgian Deception glasses. It is very possible that these glasses doubled as liquor servers as well. Scarce to find and for the seasoned early glass collector.

Circa 1800 - 1815. Three piece bronze construction. Measures almost 9 " high by 3 1/2 " diameter. Excellent minus overall condition. No trauma . The lid has an early 20th century … Circa 1800 - 1815. Three piece bronze construction. Measures almost 9 " high by 3 1/2 " diameter. Excellent minus overall condition. No trauma . The lid has an early 20th century hex nut keeping the top together as a unit. There is an early English Bristol ink liner glued in the receptacle so I imagine that the original is long gone. With the new ink cup the lid rather just sits in place and shows off well. My suspicion is the the old ink cup was formulated and designed to accept the top cover with more rigidity. This aside , it is a wonderful showing piece , and very rare at that . The ribbing and bottom knurling is wonderfully French and a tell tale sign of the period. The flaming finial practically matches the Statue of Liberty. Yes, there is an outside shot of this being a Federal American bronze inkwell as well , as it comes from the same collection as the New England scent bottle also listed. Federal and French styles both have design overlaps from the same period. A nice 200 year old inkwell of stunning size and looks. ( PACT CODE 301YYEECCAI ) Price: $265.00 USD

Measures 6 1/4 "{ high by 2 1/2 " diameter. A well documented scent bottle shape from New England , often found engraved but this one isn't. Has matching bottle to stopper numbers of " 21 " , etched on both pieces. Very fine condition or better , has obvious and much expected base wearing, stopper has some bites , body has some bites but none gross, the flared rim has a larger flint flake loss that was grounded out probably a century ago. This is shown in the pictures. Overall a wonderful historical and all original example of an early 19th century flint glass bottle , with cut panel design. Worthy of any American glass collection or museum. Very hard to find nicer without the prices doubling and tripling. Many examples of new England Glass are already in major glass museums. A nice acquisition. ( PACT CODE 722EYYXX ) Price: $85.00 USD

This piece is unsigned, … By the Venini Glass Shop of Murano , Italy , circa 1950's. Measures 6 " wide by about 4 1/2 " high , lightly tapered at the bottom. This piece is unsigned, Though many of Bianconi pieces are triple acid line stamped, this particular handkerchief vase is often found with the brown paper postage stamp label. Piece is also undamaged and in museum quality condition. One can search other sites online and literally go through 1,000 's of handkerchief vases and not find one done in this technique. It is a three step rather time consuming process to first matte out the canes of glass and form them into a flat sheet. The sheet then has to be formed into a bowl without blowing , then it has to be twisted , and then it has to be crimped, all without screwing it up. A masterpiece of Murano glass. Every Murano glass collection isn't really complete without an iconic handkerchief vase developed by the Venini House. A very blue chip offering. ( TAPC CODE 901XPPKK ) .

Signed by … Leon Bureau , alternate inscriptions Bureau, L Bueau or Bureaud , 1866 - 1906. All bronze sculpture of very definitive detail, not a recast. Circa somewhere between 1896 and 1906. Signed by both Bureau and Tiffany & co, which would have been at the 15 Union Street address in New York. Bureaud studied at Ecole des Beaux - Arts , Paris, France and studied under Alexandre Falguiere. From the young age of 18 Leon was already exhibiting at the Salon des Artistes Francais in Paris. Buread won a Gold Medal at the 1900 Paris Exhibition for his bronzes. After 1900 he was rather special commissioned to do Equestrian groups for elite horse owners. And to sandwich it all in , was commissioned by Tiffany & Co to produce this bronze of a nesting grouse. Though pheasants are known by Bureaud , this appears to be a grouse as mentioned , the former owner said it was a Partridge , so it might be one of those three, but if a pheasant , it would be a baby one at that. Measures 6 " by 4 " by 91/2 " high. Beautiful condition , with some brassoed sections that could require fine tuning. Due to Bureaud's short life span, all examples by this artist are considered rare. His record price stands at about $38,000.00 USD for a horse grouping. Leon Bureaud should easily be recognized as a top 20 French Animalier. Offers considered , cash and trade for something also possible on this one . There has been a sudden surge for fine bronzes, modern art , rare art glass and the like . I barely bid this spectacular piece into inventory. A rare item , possibly unique. Price: $2500.00 USD

This coin is usually found with a weak obverse portrait but not this piece . No bending or ripples , the obverse fields are rather clean with old time time patina. The reverse is as nearly spectacular showing light high point circulation , something that really lacks somewhat on the obverse. keeping this coin out of $1,000 price territory is a small cross hatch in the Upper Right quadrant of the reverse. It's visible but still rather faint. The Elizabeth silver series of coinage certainly endured trauma of all sorts , but this coin overall is truly a wonder to behold and is the finest that I have handled , in any denomination, especially as for the spectacular portrait. being a milled coin as opposed to hammered. it makes this coin and exceptional historical acquisition. This coin is from a longtime collection started in the early 1970's and recently dispersed via estate . The first time this coin has been offered via the internet. Priced beyond fairly , won't last.

A wonderful a tougher 5 kopeks to obtain from the heydays of Czarist Russia. Many 1803's are known for bad strikes and horrible preservation. This coin lacks both of those qualities.

With security at an all time high at the Royal Canadian Mint , the numbers of error coins leaving the mint are now at an all time low. This error is highly plausible as either a loose blank was tossed back into the hopper , or got stuck in the system somehow. This is a beautiful looking coin that has only half of its' beaded border and is underweight. This piece is also thinner than a normally struck quarter from 1978. VERY RARE.
