New Treasures Uncovered Following Financial Market Fallout


Several photos of a gold gilded compote with a glass insert came to me in my e-mail yesterday. The bottom mark read Pairpoint. While I’ve seen many pieces from this company before, I’d never seen one like this before. One particular photo really got my attention, because it was shot under a black light. You might wonder why the woman who sent me these photos shot it under a black light, but if you’ve kept up with my blogs, you would already know the answer. You see, under these lights, the glass insert gave off a fluorescent glow because it’s Vaseline Glass. This is a great way to test for Vaseline Glass, or simply take it into a dark closet.

As the financial markets continue to girate, I’m getting calls from people looking to sell some of the valuable items they’ve collected, like the Harvey Joiner painting I was called on. This is a large one, measuring 17” x 27” in a G.W. Baker frame. The sellers asking price was a little rich for my blood, but now I know who has it, should the right customer come along from my end. It’s important to keep track of the items you pass by, especially because of price. You never know when you’ll cross paths with someone who’d be the perfect customer for a piece like that, or what circumstances might cause the seller to accept a different offer.

Cindy and I have listed the new pieces 31 Club members have sent us, and they are now for sale in the gallery and marketplace. If you haven’t taken a look at what we have yet, why not do that now? You might just see something a customer has asked you to watch for, or you might find a nice Holiday Gift for someone very special.

Paintings in our gallery are getting tremendous exposure through Askart, and we are getting tremendous viewer response. This is just one of many features this club is bringing you at no cost to its members.
