I found this beauty at a flea market a few weeks ago. It’s really unusual. The gold/cooper bits are rolled into these shapes so there are no rough edges. I’ve never seen one exactly like it before. I was looking at it, thinking I would not be willing to pay whatever they were asking. Mentally I was working on what my top price was when the dealer said, “I’ll take three for it.”
Although I hadn’t yet mentally decided my top price, I knew $3 was below it, so I said, “I’ll take it.” I stopped talking then so I didn’t say something stupid like, “I can’t believe you only want three dollars for it.”
So, now it’s mine. And I love it. And you’re likely to see it on my person sometime soon. Then you will be able to appreciate how pretty it is. My poor photography here doesn’t do it justice.
