Nothing too mind blowing today, the bracelet, earrings and spoons are all silver (one of the spoons has a Soviet 875 silver mark which is kind of cool). Suspenders are silk knit by Paris, and made in the USA confusingly enough. Big chunk of Cerro Bend which I guess is used in soldering and making custom parts, don't eat it. Earrings are older YSL with what looks like lapis lazuli stones.

Spotted these mid century speakers for 14.99 and upon closer inspection they were very well made home made cabs.
I figured the if the guy put so much effort into making them they would have some good guts.
Opened them up and i was right.
Vintage Jensen tweeters amd rare Richard Allan golden 12 woofers.

Slow AF lately, but like some of you others, I’ve found some tasty ties lately.

Look at you guys showing off with genuine ties... I wasted $7 by not paying attention to this one. Why oh why? On the upside, I was distracted by a sweet Cordings hunting suit that will make up for it.
