This exceptional, massive estate dealer lot features a diverse assortment of vintage home accents, miniature tableware items, decorative novelty bells, and regional souvenirs. The entire inventory is highlighted by a beautifully preserved vintage silver-plated coaster set, alongside a mix of materials ranging from delicate ceramics and frosted glass to rustic turned wood and polished metals.
Key Highlights & Categories:
Vintage Silver-Plated Coaster Set: A handsome, complete matching set of six circular metal drink coasters stacked neatly inside a dedicated three-post structural tabletop caddy base. Each coaster surface features an intricately engraved floral scrollwork medallion pattern.
Decorative Bells & Angels: Features a large, delicate crocheted lace angel cone topper, a silver-finish metal angel dinner bell, a miniature porcelain bell decorated with hand-painted wildflowers, and a small carded gold-tone glass angel ornament.
Miniature Vanity & Tea Sets: Displays an ultra-miniature porcelain tea cup and saucer marked “Shine”, a trio of tiny hand-painted floral candle holders, and a compact round metal vanity compact mirror accented by a red chinoiserie bird and floral motif.
Artisan Glass & Ceramics: Includes a heavy, frosted satin-glass praying bear figurine, a small white ceramic pitcher decorated with pink roses, a bright green ceramic dish molded like multi-layered garden leaves, and a rustic copper-finish metal oak leaf wall hook.
Novelty Kitchen Utensils & Wood Decor: Contains four assorted party cheese spreader knives featuring decorative holiday handles (a Christmas wreath, a snowman, and an acorn harvest bundle). Paired with four turned-wood napkin rings, a circular wooden multi-hole toothpick or flower shaker block, and a patriotic jointed wooden Uncle Sam figurine.
Spiritual Plaques & Stationery: Features a framed wooden typography plaque printed with the complete “Footprints in the Sand” poem, a miniature block calendar stamped “01-01-00”, and a carded decorative miniature booklet reading “LOVE is a three letter word: (MOM)”.
Regional Souvenirs & Novelty Tins: Includes a vintage rectangular golf-themed storage tin depicting a retro golfer mid-swing, a raw purple amethyst mineral cluster, and a custom cut-paper greeting emblem reading “Celebrate Ohio”.
Era: Vintage late 20th century through early 2000s collectibles.
Condition: Great vintage estate condition overall. The silver-plated coasters show light, age-appropriate surface tarnishing and faint storage micro-scratches that will polish out beautifully. The ceramic dishes and porcelain bells maintain a glossy glaze free of significant structural fractures or deep chips. The wood blocks turn smoothly, and the frosted glass bear is free of surface scuffs. Some paper components, card packaging, and natural wood pieces show light storage shelf dust and minor edge wear consistent with long-term display.
