    Dating Identification Help On Vintage Chinese Purse Real Jade?

    Oooo, a Jacqmar propoganda scarf?! Score! Nothing about this serene bag is familiar to me, but I could say the fabric might be made of dobby weave silk or silk and cotton faille. The interior looks like anything from the 1930s through the early 60s to me. (Big help!)

    I was interviewed about my book!

    My surgery was on an acromioclavicular joint and while the surgeon was in there, he repaired two tears in a rotator cuff. Not so great feeling right now, but I think this will be a big help eventually!

    I had surgery yesterday, and woke up to this great article. The vintage-savvy reporter from our local weekly newspaper talked with me several months ago, but the space couldn't be made until this month. Notice the plug for the VFG—although she missed that we aren't all sellers, but have various...
