Hi! Nice to see you back. I bought two things at your esty site but screwed up the purchase because I couldn't remember my paypal password and the one the computer has is wrong. Or maybe the name on the account is wrong. That's probably it. Maybe I can fix it now.

Hi Wendelah1!
Well, I think you must have figured it out. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
I just got out of bed about 2 hrs ago and was planning to post something so I'll be dropping your purchases in the mail. The Girl with Gears in Her Hair - is - I believe - a vintage copy of a Rene Lalique brooch - art deco period. I believe it is gold plated too. I'll be sending it special delivery because it is really irreplacable. (my father who is a jeweler said he couldn't tell - he thinks its gold plate though because of the color and pin - but he no longer has the testing equipment and the chems used to test are very nasty).

Rene Lalique's period of making jewelry between 1890 to 1912. At some point in time there were quite a few copy's going around but they have slowly vanished into time making even the copies difficult to find.

I am very excited about both pieces. The Girl With Gears in Her Hair is very unique. The metal is not important; the design is.

The PayPal problem is inexplicable. I just tried again and it worked!

i'm finally upright and semi-coherent :D
I mailed off your pieces with special tracking last Friday. I expect they should arrive in approx 7 days. I would have let you know this earlier but I became Really Really sick... so please accept my apologies for the delay.

You sent them last Friday, seven working days. So maybe I will get them on Tuesday or Wednesday. (does an excited little dance) I posted a link to your Esty site in an entry I did in stylishly_yours that featured the water spider brooch. If you feel better, do you think you could send me the photos of the two pieces I purchased in email or whereever you sent the last one? I forgot to copy the pictures in my excitement and now I can't brag about my new pretties when they arrive with illustrations. Now that I know how, I love making posts with illustrations.

Sorry you've been under the weather. I hope that is resolved and you are well again.
