Four vintage gold tone engraved lockets, two with same pattern and two others different, suspended from chains. This was to be hooked on a sewing chatelaine. Color good outside, no scratches or denting. All clasps work well, and the photo frames are intact inside each little locket. Each measures about 3/4". Chains do not look original. More photos upon request.

Neat item – Enesco’s Betsy Ross pin cushion/tape measure from the Kitchen Independence line! Measures 4 ¾” tall and is in very good condition – she has a teeny ding (fleck) on the back of her chair and the tape measure has sprung. It could probably be replaced with a small round tape measure because it just sets inside the figurine – not attached but held in place with a couple small pieces of newspaper (original to item). Pincushion is sawdust filled. Super item, very difficult to find!

This circus elephant is made of pottery and hand decorated. I believe it is a string and ribbon dispenser.Perhaps I'm wrong and it was intended for a different use. It measures about 4 1/2" tall and is almost 7" long. It has a moon shaped slit behind each ear and two 1/2" holes on its behind. Most of the bottom area is open. Heavily crazed, and a tiny fleabite on one ear (just noticed). More pictures upon request.
