Just saw this. My father-in-law was a Tool & Die Maker & my wife is an only child. After he passed somewhat early I brought home his oak tool chest. I cleaned it up real good & lined the drawers with green felt from a pool table. Now my wife uses it as her jewelry box & it brings back fond memories for her.
My wife thrifted this heavy Sterling silver cuff today at Goodwill -- even got the Senior Discount! A late birthday gift for me.
The artist is Emerson Bill (Navajo / Diné).
You sure made some very nice finds, congratulations! Those kind of days make up for all the dry runs.Did some flea-marketing yesterday...

Knox hat box with insert.
Justin Anteater boots.
Tagged as a shaving mirror, but I’ll hang a hat or two on it. Maybe a Panama to go with the bamboo theme.

I picked this up yesterday at a yard sale for nothing.
I literally mean nothing. When I ask the lady the price... she said I could just have it!!!
It was really dusty so when I got home to clean it, I found this under where the deer are standing.
So I put it back into original shape.
On another note. While not a thrift find, my cousin gave this to me this past week for my birthday.
It was made by my great grandfather who died in 1957. He would split cane and weave baskets and other things such as this.
He made it to use as a collection plate for the little Methodist Church I grew up in. I would think he made it sometime in the early 50s.
Very cool Rusty! I'm sure you were glad to have that basket!I picked this up yesterday at a yard sale for nothing.
