I have a bottle of Le Cognac Martell Cordon Blue Baccarat in a red box. Lisalisa has one on this site only in a blue box. Mine is the same but no tax stamp.
This item is an Antique DRAGON MADE OF SOLID GREEN JADE:
• Stone – Green Jade
• Painted Wood – Stand for the Dragon to set on
• Cardboard – Box for Dragon and Stand
Particulars:
• Length = 3"
• Width = .5”
• Height = 2”
• Weight By itself = 1.5 oz
• Weight in box with stand = 5.8 oz
Little Info:
Dark marks are inside the stone.
Estate Sale awhile back.
Hand-carved from China, has no molding and is a solid Jade Stone.
And sorry about the dirt and dust.
I’m afraid I don’t have any more information than this, so I’m hoping my pictures will answer any questions that will help to see how much this item is worth.
This is a vintage Gucci flask, made in Italy as indicated by the leather label on the bottom of the flask. The label says "made in Italy by Gucci" in gold letters. It is in excellent shape aside from some VERY light oxidation to the metal bottom (not rust, just rough to the touch a bit).
It is wrapped in leather, with an embossed (is that the word for it?) Gucci pattern, like a chain link fence. leather is light reddish brown (more brown than red).
Made entirely of glass, with a metal cap.
Not that large, 13cm high, 6cm wide and 2 cm thick, with the cap being 1.5 cm tall and in diameter.
I bought it a while back (7 or 8 years) in a thrift store. just liked the way it looked, and it was only like 5 dollars. I only noticed it was Gucci later.
If anyone can help with this mystery, it'd be appreciated!!
I inherited the dining room furniture from the original Waldorf Astoria Presidential Suite in NYC. It was auctioned in 1929 (before the Waldorf moved to its current location) and has been in my family since. The story goes that Buffalo Bill, among other dignitaries, have sat at my dining room table. The set is Chippendale mahogany furniture including: 8 chairs (2 with arms), 8 foot table, buffet, and server.
I am in the process of researching and documenting its history. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
