Rare Antique Dini E. Cellai Signa Cherub hand made silver plated copper vase
This is a rare italian antique from Toscana. It has relief sculptures images of cherubs all around the vase. I think that it is silver plated but there is a possibility that it may be lead because of the age. I am guessing that it is from the late 1800's. It is heavy and made of copper. Good condition except for where the silver or the lead is plating is wearing off and you can see the copper. It is 4 1/2 inches high and 3 inches in diameter. This would be a great addition to any antiquities collection.
2 RARE Antique 19thC Demantoid Ancient Roman Talisman
RARE! Two Near Flawless Quality Genuine Natural 19th Century Antique Handcrafted Faceted Russian Green Demantoid Garnet Semi-Precious Gemstones. CLASSIFICATION: Faceted Green Demantoid Garnets. ORIGIN: Ural Mountains. Russia. Late 19th century. SIZE: Diameter: 2 1/2mm. Depth: 2mm. All measurements approximate. WEIGHT: 0.20 carats(the pair) NOTES: Upon request we can set your gemstones as a ring. Pendant, or as earrings. DETAIL: Ancient cultures including the Celts. Greeks, Hebrews, Persians and Romans believed that a garnet could give its wearer guidance in the night, allowing them to see when others could not. Garnet was also worn for protection when traveling, and according to Jewish mythology, a giant garnet provided interior lighting for Noah's Ark. It is also believed that garnet, described as“nopek” was one of the twelve gemstones ... moredescribed in the Bible in Exodus 28:17-20 as adorning Aaron’s breastplate, representing the twelve tribes of ancient Israel. Here are two gorgeously colored bright green demantoid garnet semi-precious gemstones. Hand crafted by a 19th century Russian artisan, part of an heritage renown for the production of the elaborate gemstones and jewelry of the Czars of Medieval, Renaissance, and Victorian Russia. The faceted cut is a coarse precursor to what eventually became known in the industry as a“brilliant cut” round, the contemporary finish generally given to round diamonds. These gemstones have every bit the flash of diamonds, and are a hundred, even a thousand times more rare. In fact demantoid garnet is one of the rarest colored gemstones in the world, and the most highly valued garnet of all. Its dispersion and reflection indexes exceed that of a diamond, which is to say that its brilliance is greater than a diamond’s. In fact the name demantoid is derived from the Dutch word for diamond, demant” These are exceptionally nice quality specimens. The gemstones are without blemish even in a jeweler’s loupe. Remarkably rare. Demantoid garnet was initially discovered in the
Buried People: Ancient Italy Pre-Roman Etruscan World RARE Hardcover Pix
Click Here. Double your traffic. Get Vendio Gallery- Now FREE! The Buried People: A Study of the Etruscan World by Sibylle von Cles-Reden. DESCRIPTION: Hardback with Dust Jacket: 248 pages. Publisher: Charles Scribner's Sons; 1955) This is the story of the vanished race which for nearly 400 years. Until the rise of Rome in the fifth century B.C. exercised power over Central Italy and the Mediterranean. Everything about the Etruscans is mysterious. The Romans, their successors in dominion over Italy, sought systematically to delete all trace of them from the face of the earth. Superficially the attempt almost succeeded, for it was not until two centuries ago that archaeology began effectively to restore the Etruscans to history. But in reality the attempt was always doomed to failure because, as this book sets out to show, the soil of ... moreEtruria was so steeped in the spirit of the Etruscans that their influence was never extinct or even dormant, least of all among their conquerors, the Romans themselves. Frau Sibylle von Cles-Reden. A trained archaeologist, describes the Etruscan sites and brings them back to life with the imagination of an artist. Each major site in turn: Caere, Vulci, Clusium, Volsinium and the rest, is seen to represent one or another of the major fields of Etruscan achievement: pottery or sculpture, painting or architecture, religion or the Etruscan way of life. Each leads her in turn to a fascinatingly discursive account of a different aspect of Etruscan history, in which her sensitive awareness of the continuity of the race and the timeless quality of their native landscape is matched by a large number of magnificent photographs. The Etruscan mystery has never been more sympathetically evoked, nor more nearly unraveled. CONDITION: Modestly used. Clean. Pages are unmarked, no notes or highlighting, unmutilated, remaining well bound. Cloth covers are clean. Dustjacket shows only modest edge and corner shelfwear, one small 3/4 inch edge tear(neatly mended) at the top edge of the front side,
RARE 19thC Antique 3ct Orthoclase Feldspar Gemstone from Spain Canary Islands
Antique Nineteenth Century Three Carat Genuine Natural Faceted Yellow Orthoclase Feldspar. ORIGIN: Spanish Canary Islands. 19th Century. Handcrafted in or near Yekaterinburg. Russia. 19th century. SIZE: Length: 11 1/2mm. Width: 9 1/4mm. Depth: 5 1/4mm. All measurements approximate. WEIGHT: 3.02 carats. NOTES: Upon request we can set your gemstones as a ring. Pendant, or as earrings(click for more information) DETAIL: A very rare gemstone. A transparent yellow orthoclase feldspar. Though geologists estimate that feldspar makes up 60% of the earth’s crust, facetable, transparent crystals are very rare. The two most common facetable crystal feldspars are orthochlase(as is this specimen) and andesine, another rare feldspar which is actually treated as a distinct gemstone from orthoclase(though they are related, as are for example the quartz gemstones ... moreamethyst and citrine related to one another, but treated as“different” gemstones) The most common feldspar gemstone is moonstone, though is generally not in transparent crystal(but rather translucent) and so is cut and polished as cabochons or beads, not faceted. Faceted orthoclase feldspar(as well as andesine) are rare and uncommon gemstones. The gemstone was hand crafted and faceted by a 19th century Russian artisan, part of an heritage renown for the production of the elaborate gemstones and jewelry of the Czars of Medieval, Renaissance, and Victorian Russia.

Or perhaps incense sticks are placed in the small holes. It appears to be solid copper or bronze. It has a lovely patina so it is old. There is a makers mark on the bottom and also a item NO. 341.

The VOC assumed many of the functions of the government of the Netherlands, including minting coins, which circulated wherever the Dutch settled or traded. Manhattan was discovered in 1609(believe it or not. On September 11, 1609) by Henry Hudson, commander of the VOC ship, the Half Moon. The province of New Netherland(which later became the State of New York) was created in 1624. Its capital was New Amsterdam, which lay on the southern tip of Manhattan— purchased” from the Indians by Peter Minuit for $24 in trade goods. Of course, the Indians had no concept of land ownership, and only later discovered what the Dutch had in mind when they were handing out trinkets. Because the Dutch were instrumental in the early development of New York, Dutch coinage joined the Spanish, Portuguese, and British coins that were used for daily transactions all over the American colonies.
