amcintyre 10 Posted August 24, 2011 I'm listing this glass hanging thing in a few weeks time, and don't know what it is. Glass - Unknown glass hanging ornament for sale in East London (ID:44190755) It isn't that old, but was obviously manufactured to appear old. My guesses are that it some sort of glass holder for a candle? Could anyone share some light on it? (Possible pun intended) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cali Craft and Gems 10 Posted August 24, 2011 Yip - it is a sconce (candle holder). Less than 10 years old, made to look ancient using the pewter finish on the metal work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

booksallsizes 10 Posted August 24, 2011 It's quite attractive and looks like it is of a good size - maybe you'll be pleasantly surprised... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
amcintyre 10 Posted August 24, 2011 (edited) It's quite attractive and looks like it is of a good size - maybe you'll be pleasantly surprised... HOw about that, you're from Nieu Bethesda! Is there a post office there? I visited the owl house a few years ago and remember that the PO was converted into a cafe?? It had a picture of a red ant on the sign and was called something like "Red Roman"?? Edited August 24, 2011 by amcintyre Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
booksallsizes 10 Posted August 24, 2011 The PO is still a cafe (now called Cafe Grace) and is also still a PO (run by Grace!). The best Post Office in the country :love: - my dogs can come inside with me and I can get a great cup of coffee while I do the posting and she makes the best cakes. And it was the 'Red Roman' - you may not have seen one of them critters (Red Romans) while you were here. They are awful awful things - google them, they give me the horrors! So I'm glad the place has had a name change! Oh - and am very pleased that it shows up now on bidorbuy that I'm from NB and not Graaff-Reinet, like it used to :grin: Never noticed, thanks for pointing it out!

booksallsizes 10 Posted August 24, 2011 Oh - Graaff-Reinet still shows on my selling page...:hm: Wish they'd change it as I get people from Graaffies that want to collect and have to tell them that I'm a little further away than they think... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
