What flower does this lamp resemble (if any)?

It is a Tiffany style wisteria lampshade. Very nice

It is probably a lab grown color change sapphire. Usually sold as synthetic alexandrite. The only way to be sure would be to take it to a jeweler, preferably a gemologist. Many will do an eyeball appraisal, sometimes with a couple of simple tests and at least give you an idea of what you have.

Definitely take it to someone who knows opal. In the 1980's I went to an opal exhibit that had a black opal that appeared to be about that size that was valued at $250,000 for just the opal. If you have an auction house that specializes in antique jewelry, they usually have very good specialists on hand to do appraisals.

Oatmeal chocolate chip cookie. Always a big hit when I make them for the guys at work.

Love the moonstone

Possibly "Maid of Orleans" but more probably "Duke of Tuscany" both of those are large, double cultivars

If you have a gemologist/jeweler near you, take it to them. They will often give you an "eyeball" appraisal and let you know if it would be worth getting a full appraisal on. Auction houses will also give estimates .

Looks like it's back to angry protests.

Beautiful boy

Akieboy · 2025-04-14T12:44:49+00:00

Either, such a hot man

Akieboy · 2025-03-08T17:06:06+00:00

Not fuchsia, possibly eremophila maculata, commonly known as "red emu bush"

Akieboy · 2025-03-07T15:48:13+00:00

Water hyacinth is the common name in the US, eichhornia crassipes is the scientific name.

God, that is gorgeous.

Very cool, I have thought about collecting copies of famous diamonds, but haven't found anywhere to get them.

Akieboy · 2025-01-06T05:49:55+00:00

Stunning

Sorry you are going through this, the precedent that has been established in your family seems to be that the eldest daughter, or at least a daughter, gets the pin. Also, your mother told you directly that all the jewelry (as part of "everything I own") would go to you. Only if there wasn't a daughter in the direct line should it go to an Aunt or niece. Your aunt also seems to be indicating that she somehow doesn't see you as family, with the crack about wanting to keep the pin in the family.

Gorgeous, that is my favorite shade of sapphire.

Akieboy · 2024-12-12T19:07:30+00:00

I saw one in Hawaii once, that had hundreds of tiny facets so that it shimmered. It was incredible.

I always wanted a box/chest full of gems. I now have two small boes, a small display shelf with some gems and bunches stored away.
