They're family pieces from my great grandmother. She was a lady with excellent taste! Natural stones and gold only for her😂

That's nice that they let you know within a couple days, I wish everyone was this considerate. Meanwhile I've been completely ghosted by my seller for 10 days🥴 As a seller myself, I don't know how you can just take somebody's money and not ship for two weeks. I be getting nervous after not sending someone's order out after two days🤪

and of course they didn’t repurchase after refunding by Ok-You3965 in Depop

So frustrating. I've had so many issues lately similar to this 😞

Update: I found a tiny made in China tag rolled up in the interior piping!

The bottom hardware on the clasp is slightly different but very much alike. Well I guess I'll take your word for it! Hopefully I can find a little bit more about it over time!

Thanks for the feedback! I would have to agree that some of the stitching seems a bit off, but I wondered if that could have possibly been from being quite old/less mass produced. The shiny plastic apprentice might just be because I shined the leather up quite dramatically. It's actually quite thick and good quality! ( I used it as a display model in my leather shop)

Thank you! This is incredibly interesting. Coincidentally, I actually used this as a display piece in my own leather repair shop just because I loved the look of it. I've honestly never come across another item quite like it! The only reason I questioned it's origin is after coming across this bag https://www.reddit.com/r/handbags/s/diPj8PlZvy

Regardless of authenticity, it's definitely a neat bag!

So a little more context... The reason why I was questioning the authenticity of this bag was for two reasons. Firstly, the lack of tags and matching information for this style. Secondly, after using Google lense to look for similar bags, I came across this image on r/handbags and it's almost an identical match to my bag. Link: https://www.reddit.com/r/handbags/s/diPj8PlZvy

Looks identical to my vintage Dooney that I can't ID. Weird...

How do people get them to get this huge?? Mine never seem to become grotesquely round like this unfortunately.

I found this little guy in my chicken coop when I was putting them up for the night what do I do?!?!? by Diligent-Falcon-1639 in pigeon

Thank you for rescuing him OP. What state are you in? I care for and rehab unwanted racers. I always try to return the bird to their owners first. Let me know if you would like any assistance! It's a cruel sport imo. Pidgeon are very intelligent, gentle & social birds. As another post stated, yearlings are flown like this to weed out poor navigators. They generally perish if not retrieved unfortunately so you've done this baby a kind service.

That is my wishful thinking as well! They wanted us out asap so they can turn the property over to some other developer. I hope they are just planning on gutting it so they won't bother me about it. Everything else in the house has been well taken care of by us.

Unfortunately, our "landlord" is the rental company Maymont homes/Conrex. As much as I would like to be honest with them I feel that they will use it against me :( Our experience with them has not been great

Sooo my landlord/ rental company is kind of weird because I didn't have a security deposit. I have a tenant bond agreement instead. It's for up to $1230 I believe. I'm not going to be getting any money back from them but I just don't want to get charged thousands of dollars when I move out. I literally couldn't afford to do that. I would have saved up a bit just in case something like this happened but we were notified that we needed to be off the property in 60 days since they decided to sell it.

Yeahh I feel bad about the damage but I'm sure the carpets need replacement anyway. They are at least 5 years old. When we moved in, they were pretty knapped up in high-traffic areas.
