Now, not everything in the retro rickery is tech related. I deal with a lot of stuff from a wide variety of areas, so my e-cater and sc stores get populated with anything that catches my eye. As the rickery's new uncard wall can indicate here, there's a lot of stuff here that is in video, subject matter, and itself. That's for another time. So, anyway, this little batch of a sort of decorative brass items just that just finished four month tour of duty on FC or now back on my e-cater store, and links will be given to their individual entries in the description. So, let's take a look at them one at a time. This first piece is an aft tray that I think is from the 60s. It's a brass turquoise shoe, and normally this style is considerably smaller, but this one is about 6.5 inches long, and 2.5 inches wide. It's bigger than the other ones I've dealt with before, or as Ed Sullivan recall it, a really big shoe. It's pretty hefty and solid piece, and could use some cleaning and polishing, of course. The next piece I'm guessing is probably 1980s or perhaps late 70s. It's a two piece brass apple, and enough of the tag underneath is peeled off to where it's hard to say exactly where it was made. Looks like the last three letters are DIAs, I'm going to guess India. It's about 3.5 inches tall at the top of the stem, and opens up to show that it's also a little trinket holder. It'll be a little nice gift for when you really need to polish the apple. Do people even use that term anymore? Whatever, on to the next piece. It's a Tory, it's a Tory, it's a Cuspidor. That's what it's for. Actually I think this would be more considered a cauldron than a Cuspidor, and really it's just another old neat brass planter. Not sure how to style the markings are. That says China on the underside. I'm guessing by the wear and the aging perhaps late 1970s or 80s also has brass loops on the sides, so it's hanging from the ceiling. And it measures about 4 inches deep, 5 inches in diameter at its widest, 4 inches across the top, and 2 1 1 1 1 1 2 1 1 1 1 2 1 1 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 It is a planter and we'll eventually have dirt and it for whatever it will host. And speaking of planters, here's the last one, which is a new arrival to our inventory here. And we'll be finding its way to my Etsy store early next year, unless it sells on e-creators in the next week or two. This one I was actually tempted to keep myself, but since I think I can get upwards of 34, the swans seem to be popular subject matter for brass, I guess. I think I'll go for the money instead. This one was made in Korea and I'm guessing it's to be probably from the mid 1980s to early 90s. About 6 inches tall at the top of the head and 5 inches from breast to tail. And of course, needs a good cleaning in a session with some brass polish actually, because I don't know if it's going to show up in this lighting, but... There is some dry greenish corrosion on the inside. Let's see if I can... If it shows with flashlight on it. Alright. Yeah. It's actually not going to be too difficult to clean up. As one of my neater pieces I've come across lately. So that wraps it up for the second installment of the Retro Rikari showroom. The next one's going to be a rather short one with some more boring knick knacks, but I'll try to put together one featuring old board games that I have available later, as well as a video game showcase. The links to each individual jewel listing are in the description. And as always, feel free to message me here or through my eCrader contact email there with any questions. And as before, if an item shows as unhauled, message me anyway, just in case whoever is considering it lacks out.
