1990 Houston Texas World Economic Summit Bronze Medal. 62 mm diameter with no issues or wear. It came to me in this box which is just a generic box, came with original paper shown. History for the Preservationist: The 1990 G-7 Economic Summit medal. The insignia on medal includes the seven countries participating (USA, Canada, France, West Germany, Italy, Japan, and the United Kingdom) with its corresponding flag, as well as the CEC and the flag of Europe. The symbol of a star is in the center of the medal.The 16th G7 Summit was held at Houston between July 9 and 11, 1990. The venue for the summit meetings was the campus of Rice University and other locations nearby in the Houston Museum District.The Group of Seven (G7) was an unofficial forum which brought together the heads of the richest industrialized countries: France, West Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada (since 1976) and the President of the European Commission (starting officially in 1981). The summits were not meant to be linked formally with wider international institutions; and in fact, a mild rebellion against the stiff formality of other international meetings was a part of the genesis of cooperation between France's President Giscard d'Estaing and West Germany's Chancellor Helmut Schmidt as they conceived the first Group of Six ( G6) summit in 1975. tw248

1993 David Lotton Leaf and Vine Art glass vase 7.75" tall with no cracks, chips, restorations, or wear. Signed David Lotton 1993 Leaf and Vine. The inside of this vase is iridescent. DAVID LOTTON David Lotton is a second generation American glassblower. He is the oldest son of Charles Lotton and was introduced to the world of glassblowing at a very young age. In 1970, Charles started building a furnace and began blowing pieces of glass from melted down pop bottles in a shed behind their house. David was there in this infancy and he was Charles first assistant at the age of ten. David has vivid memories of his childhood working in the shop with his father. When most children were playing childhood games he was spending time after school and on the weekends helping him at the bench. By the age of 14 he started learning how to do finishing work, polishing the bottom of the glass flat. David eventually followed in his fathers' footsteps and by the age of 15 began making paperweights. That ignited a passion to begin glass blowing. David has been creating his one of a kind vessels since 1978. His unique handcrafted works are designed with precise attention to detail. Developing his own glass formulas, David has created a complex palette of colors, giving him the ability to create his multi-layering and sculpting style. Each year David continues to study and refine the techniques he uses in creating his art. David's Clematis Reflection Series, Hollyhock Paperweight Series and Mixed Bouquets Series all reflect his floral patterns which capture his love for detail. He combines color and layering to create depth and beauty. His Organic Sculptures reflect movement and rich hues of a summer sunset. David is inspired by all nature. He has a successful ranch in the hills of Kentucky where he is inspired to evolve, change, and grow continually. He commutes back and forth to fulfill both loves. tw274

A Native American jewelry piece referred to as "silver" or "ingot" is guaranteed to be at least 90% silver. I rarely use the word "sterling" when referring to older Native American silver or really any older silver jewelry as silver contents vary and "sterling" is 92.5% silver. No older jewelry is going to be exactly 92.5% silver, some a little over, some a little under. It wasn't an exact thing with handmade jewelry. I've seen thousands of pieces xrf'd to prove this.

No cracks, chips, or restorations. 14.5" tall x 8" wide one of a kind item.Well known for her shakers Originally created in 1981 as a means to inspire a stressed-out friend "to take life with a grain of salt", the Shakers actually began their lives a functional salt and pepper shakers. Nineteen years and 30,000 sculptures later… the shakers have evolved into a collection of figurative ceramic art that is displayed and sold in galleries nationwide. Each Shaker is a page in the diary of my life, a 3-dimensional metaphor, which arise from my day-to-day experiences. These living doodles are tiny monuments to the daily experiences of "being". The sculptures capture life's moments of absurdity, contradiction, pain, joy, befuddlement and love. Each Shaker is a completely unique piece of sculpture. They are carefully handcrafted of fine porcelain, then fired and individually hand-painted. No two are ever alike. And the Shakers do indeed let us "take life with a grain of salt" by making us laugh and cry at the absurdity of our predicaments, the humor of our foibles and the wonder of being human. Tw49

19th Century Japanese Hirado School Porcelain Netsuke 1 7/8" tall x 1.5" wide<br>with no damage, 150ish years old.<br><br>A netsuke (根付, [netsɯ̥ke]) is a miniature sculpture, originating in 17th century<br>Japan. Initially a simply-carved button fastener on the cords of an inrō box,<br>netsuke later developed into ornately sculpted objects of craftsmanship.<br><br>History<br><br>An "Off White" netsuke with an eagle design and an inrō with a deer design. The<br>combination of netsuke and inrō creates a story of an eagle preying on deer. Edo<br>period, 18th century<br>Traditionally, Japanese clothing – first the kosode and its later evolution, the<br>kimono – did not have pockets. Though the sleeves of the kimono could be used to<br>store small items, the men who wore kimono needed a larger and stronger<br>container in which to store personal belongings, such as s, , money and seals,<br>resulting in the development of containers known as sagemono, which were hung by<br>cords from the robes' sashes (obi).<br><br>These containers may have been pouches or small woven baskets, but the most<br>popular were crafted boxes (inrō) held shut by ojime, sliding beads on cords.<br>Whatever the form of the container, the fastener which secured the cord at the<br>top of the sash was a carved, button-like toggle called a netsuke. Netsuke, like<br>inrō and ojime, evolved over time from being strictly utilitarian into objects<br>of great artistic merit and an expression of extraordinary craftsmanship.<br>Netsuke production was most popular during the Edo period (1603–1867).<br><br>Netsuke and inrō declined as Japanese clothes were gradually westernized from<br>the Meiji period (1868–1912). Because of their popularity amongst Western<br>collectors at the time, some of the greatest collections are now found outside<br>of Japan
