Silver ware

[Tengu]

Some charms of mine.

These can be picked up fairly easily; most jewellers have a box you can rummage through; some sell by weight, or size...some still are ridiculously cheap.

I was saddened to see the best jewellers in town doesnt sell them, silver or gold, shame as they are fun individual things, and that is what jewelry is to me; something personal.

Anyhow.







Charms are good fun

That one with the meat(?) on a turning spit is great - very unexpected

Love those, my mum used to collect charms, one every birthday to go on her bracelet.

Yes, I liked that.

They have themes; One of them is Horned Beasts.

The animal in the third is a buffalo; I have a ram (Aries) but not yet a bull (Taurus)

(Its interesting that many of the Zodiac charms around are poorly sculpted)

I have an IOM theme, so there is a Stubbin, a motorbike, a viking ship and the flag.

And a Cornish theme so a mine, a lighthouse, Truro cathedral and a pasty.

Grab them when you can as fast as you can if they are cheap enough, silver is at an all time high with no sign of it falling anytime soon.

There was a dealer at Frome Sunday Market last time I went that literally had buckets of them being sold at very cheap prices

My gran used to have something similar. They're really interesting for young kids.
