George Boutwell Texas Hill country Pastoral Farmhouse watercolor. 17" x 16" framed, 9.75" x 8" sight. No issues with painting, slight wear to frame. Great painting by a listed Texas artist, much better in person.Born in East Hartford, Connecticut, in 1943. After his Mothers untimely death in 1945, he and his father traveled around the country and by the time he started the First Grade in San Antonio, Texas, they had lived in Connecticut, Vermont, Maine, New York, Indiana, Michigan, Tennessee, California and Texas. George spent most of his life in Austin and moved to Bosque County in 1987 where he and his wife Martha live on a ranch near Clifton, in a 1904 Victorian home known as Highview, which is set on the crest of a hill overlooking the Bosque River Valley. The Boutwell's have two daughters: Valerie 49, and Kimberlee 47, two grandsons: Josh 19 and Brady 16 and one Granddaughter, Kaylee 13. Hobbies and interests include Historic Preservation, Old Cars, fossil and observation of wildlife and Longhorn Cattle.George was Art Director for Texas Highways Magazine from 1966 to 1972 and became aware of the diversity of Texas during that time and this awareness has become the focus of his life's work. George has refused to specialize in one Genre of Art and only limits the scope of his work to Texas. He has been able to make his living exclusively from his Art for 40 Years!The Boutwell's former home in Austin won a 1983 Austin Heritage Society Award which was presented at the Governor’s Mansion. George was an appointed member of the Austin Historic Landmark Commission from 1982 to 1985.Professional BackgroundArt Training:Self-taught. George was too poor to afford Art Lessons and due to his failing half a year of High School because he was sitting in class drawing cars instead of studying his grades were not sufficient to enter College. He read every Art book he could find in the Public Library and practiced continually, doing 100 sketches per day for one year! When he was finally able to afford Art Lessons it was because he had become a full time Professional Commercial Artist and had some disposable income for the first time in his life. George took a correspondence course in Fine Art from the Famous Artist School which helped him make the transition from Commercial to Fine Art in 1973.anderas

Catches the light as you move around.Traditional wedding pin Norway. Great coat lapel or hat pin here.From the Web: The Power of Silver In rural Norway in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, women, men and children wore some kind of silver jewelry every day. Often that silver was in the form of a brooch or slje. Some styles of slje were specific to a region, others were used across the country. Simple pins were worn daily as the only fastener on a shirt or blouse. On special occasions, Norwegians wore more silver with their bunader, festive folk costumes, such as large brooches, buttons and shoe buckles, and finger rings.Silver showed the wealth and prosperity of a family, and Norwegians also believed it cured sickness in humans and animals, improved crops, and protected against storms and evil spirits. Huldrefolk were perhaps thep rimary reason for wearing silver jewelry. Also known as underworld creatures, huldrefolk tried to strengthen their gene pool by marrying humans and stealing children. Rural Norwegians never knew when or where they would encounter a huldrefolk, so they felt it was important to wear silver jewelry daily. The metal itself was strong, and dangling ornaments added protection by reflecting evil away from the wearer. Each time jewelry was worn in churc hor was handed down to the next generation, it became even more powerful.Rites of passage, especially baptism and marriage, were common times of huldrefolk attack, because humans were vulnerable as they changed status. The time between birth and baptism was particularly dangerous for infants because they were in constant danger of being swapped with huldrefolk babies. Parents often pinned a tiny slje on the baby's clothes until baptism provided more permanent protection. Girls might get their first full-sized slje to protec tthem at confirmation.At the precise moment a woman went from being single to married, she risked being taken to the mountain by huldrefolk. Brides wore the most and the finest jewelry, including several large broches, finger rings and bridal necklaces. Women throughout Norway wore special headdresses. Brides in central Norway wore headdresses decorated with beads and dangles. In western and northern Norway, brides wore metal crowns with hanging decorations shaped ike circles, crosses, leaves and birds. the few crowns that existed in a church parish were often available for rent from the owner, usually a minister or wealthy farmer.The Norwegian immigrants often took their bunader with them to their new homes but rarely used them. The did, however, continue to use their sljer.Norwegian women quickly adopted American clothing but proudly wore a slje at the neck to show their Norwegian heritage. Sljer are no longer used for protection; in fact, most wearers today are not even aware of that function which was so important in the past. Silver is still powerful as a symbol of ethnic ancestry.anderas

Greek Konstantino Sterling silver Chalcedony bracelet. Retro retired design with<br>no damage and little wear. Fits up to 7" wrist. -anderas-<br><br>4,000 BC<br>In the heart of the Mediterranean, generations of alchemists, artisans and<br>goldsmiths explored the depths of earth's most valued materials. Gold, silver,<br>bronze and precious stones inspired the creation of fine jewelry, a creative<br>expression of human intelligence.<br>Through the ages, Greek goldsmiths have estab- lished an exceptionally unique<br>presence in the history of fine jewelry, evident across the Mediterra- nean,<br>spanning through the Archaic, Classical, Hellenistic and Byzantine eras of<br>Greece. The indestructible nature of fine jewelry exudes -like qualities, a<br>timelessness that surpasses the ages of style and trend. The Konstantino style<br>emerged from the roots of these traditions, paving the way for its own unique<br>style, one re-defining the blueprint of the classical Greek identity.<br><br>1958: Birth of a legend<br>Konstantino was born in Filiadona, a small village outside Athens where the<br>Ancient city of Melitea once stood. There he watched his father closely as he<br>worked on the farm, building machines and tools of his own. Here Konstantino<br>developed a great appre- ciation for the art of hand craftsmanship.<br><br>1978: A musical influence<br>Following his love for music, the young Konstantino became a disc jockey in the<br>city of Athens, playing everything from Carlos Santana to Lou Reed. These icons<br>and many more, inspired a stylistic fluidity that introduced an essence of glam<br>rock to the scene. By way of music, Konstantino began curating his own aesthetic<br>identity, as a creative mind and style icon. Where, these legends continue to<br>influence the rule breaking spirit that drives the design team at Konstantino to<br>this day.<br>about-image-4<br>1983: Jewelry saved my life<br>Konstantino fled the music scene of Athens in search of an oasis, he took a trip<br>to the island of Hydra where he lived for the next 15 years. It was on this<br>magical island, where Konstantino fell in love with jewelry. He began collecting<br>and curating jewelry, whereby in 1988 the first Konstantino store opened.<br><br>1991: Annette<br>Hydra is not only the birthplace of Konstantinos love for Jewelry but was also<br>where he met his soon to be wife and creative partner, Annette.

6 Antique Shiebler American Sterling demitasse spoons. 4" long, 63.8 grams with no issues. Each with monogram on back.George W. Shiebler was the owner of a prominent American silversmithing firm that operated from the late 1800s through the early 20th century. He built his business by acquiring the factories and equipment of other silver-producing companies. While his firm made some innovative jewelry designs during its time in business, the core focus was sterling silver flatware.George W. Shiebler - HistoryGeorge W. Shiebler incorporated his silversmithing business, George W. Shiebler Company, in New York in 1892. He was president, and his brother William F. Shiebler served as treasurer. “The firm’s history dates back to the acquisition of Jahne, Smith & Company in which George Shiebler was a salesman and the partnership Hodenpyl, Tunison & Shiebler circa 1874,” according to author Fred Rezazadeh in his book Collectible Silver Jewelry.Shiebler expanded his business by acquiring several other companies, including Coles & Reynolds and Morgan Morgans Jr., along with the silver dies of many other related businesses. While showrooms remained in Manhattan, the company factory was relocated to Brooklyn in the 1890s. In addition to copious amounts of flatware, the firm made other types of sterling silver goods like tableware, jewelry, and accessories.The jewelry produced by this firm largely featured classical themes. As noted on the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s website, an article in Jewelers’ Circular and Horological Review compared his pieces featuring imitations of ancient coins to artifacts “unearthed at Pompeii and Herculaneum.” Some of these pieces feature both Shiebler and Tiffany & Co. marks. However, adornment was not the primary work of George W. Shiebler Company, and other goods were produced in far greater quantities.By 1910, Shiebler’s business was dissolved. Most of the remaining inventory was scrapped for its value by new owners. Shiebler was then employed by Gorham until he died in 1920.anderas

6.5" Retired Jeep Collins Sterling heart braceletIn 1972 Jeep Collins, the son of Enid Collins Handbag designer started making jewelry from glass African trade beads that my sister gave me. She told me, "Why don't you put these together with brass wire and I will see if I can sell them in my store." I had just been discharged from the Marine Corps in July and was planning to go back to college in the fall. I needed to earn a little money while I waited to begin school so I took her up on the offer. By September she was selling all the jewelry I could make. I was so encouraged by the sales that I decided to put off college and make jewelry for awhile. Awhile turned into a lifetime career.In time I learned the art of lost wax casting and direct metal fabrication at the Southwest Craft Center in San Antonio. These new skills enabled me to turn sketches into pieces that reflect my interest; wildlife and nature. In 1974 after my redemption through Jesus Christ many of my designs reflected my new found faith.In the early years Dana and I traveled on weekends to arts and craft shows all over Texas to sell what I made during the week. Later we sold to resellers, and in the early 1990’s we opened our own stores in major Texas cities. This was an exciting time; we had over a hundred craftsmen making jewelry in our Fredericksburg workshop; our lives were at a fast pace.Today life is simple, the stores are all closed and we make jewelry in the old tin house on the ranch, very much like the log cabin of my mother’s where I started. We sell from our website and by phone. The downsizing has been a blessing for us. In addition to making jewelry, Dana and I are involved in several Christian ministries, taking care of grandchildren, raising cattle, and growing vegetables.anderas

If the belt doesn't<br>fit the buckle is worth way more than I'm asking for the combo and will easily<br>go on another 1" belt.<br>Belt is 1" wide.<br><br>Curious George is George Lapin, a gentleman of prodigious curiosity indeed<br>judging from his very intriguing store on the Aspen promenade. Your first clue<br>that his heart belongs to the old west is his slick handlebar mustache, ala<br>Wyatt Earp. Originally from New York City, Lapin ventured to Aspen about 25<br>years ago to see a friend and promptly fell in love with the place and all<br>things western. The results of his passion are displayed in this huge and<br>amazing store-museum. The place bulges with fascinating memorabilia like antique<br>rifles and pistols, swords, sheriff’s badges, a Cisco Kid poster, silver boxes,<br>vintage decks of cards and poker chip caddies. There’s a sumptuous circa 1929<br>black tooled-leather saddle dripping with ornate silver inlay and conchas for<br>just $32,500.<br><br>Everything has a story. Hanging on the wall is a rifle belonging to Chief Ouray,<br>presented to him in 1880 by Otto Mears, the great railroad builder of Colorado.<br>The rifle was something of a thank-you gift to the chief for helping to staunch<br>the Meeker Massacre some years before. Indian agent Meeker, in a rush of<br>enthusiasm for turning the natives into farmers, had plowed under the<br>horse-racing track which they dearly loved. Miffed, they slaughtered the man and<br>his family. Still, it could have been much worse had not Chief Ouray alerted the<br>9th Cavalry Buffalo Soldiers who rode to the rescue, a bit late for the Meekers.<br><br>Another page of history for sale is the rough leather “possibles bag” of Sioux<br>Chief Red Rainbow, a survivor of the Battle of the Little Bighorn. The bag<br>contains his colt .44 revolver which may have been raised against the ill-fated<br>Custer in the famous 1876 fight, as well as the chief’s deck of cards which<br>inexplicably have no spots<br><br>Curious George also carries tiny antique s which shoot real s, splendid old<br>Indian pawn jewelry, new and used cowboy boots, leather vests and jackets, and<br>an entire wall of belts and cases of silver belt buckles – choose a snarling<br>bear, a shrieking eagle, a lizard or turtle – in designs plain or fancy. Bill<br>Clinton, yes, in the flesh, dropped in and scooped up a whole passel of the<br>shop’s stunning contemporary turquoise and silver jewelry last summer. Nobody<br>had the nerve to ask him who would be the lucky giftee, reports George, not<br>quite curious enough this time.<br><br>George’s place has just about anything that could strike your fancy, except<br>maybe a vintage double holster, leather masterfully carved in extravagant<br>florals, with the big initials HRH on the back. Not long ago, Prince Andrew, of<br>the British Royals, stopped by and eyed the piece. When he asked the price,<br>George explained that he was waiting for some high roller to come by with those<br>initials, so he could really stick it to him.
