Help! Need help on paint/stain repair.

This is a clock that I just purchased and I want to improve the appearance of the chips. I tried to wipe on some stain but it wouldn’t absorb. I’m kind afraid to sand it because of the paint.

Any suggestions on improving the appearance that a novice can do?:

I need help!

I collect art nouveau and art deco stick pins…. Don’t wear them but love how well they illustrate a specific time in history!

However I have like 50 and they’re just floating loose in a jewelry box ! I’d love to think of a way to display them….

I’m open to any and all ideas!

I purchased an antique brooch in a very loose setting…

I took it off and it looks like an old button? Does anyone know about antique buttons being converted to brooches?

This is a stumper but I know somebody knows exactly what they are

I just purchased this Victorian trinket box and was told it was 850 silver. It’s marked but they are so worn.

The center one looks kinda like a keyhole but that’s all I can make out….the inside is gilded if that makes a difference

Help?!!! I have an art nouveau finger purse I’m desperately trying to identify.

Can anyone identify this maker mark?

Another one! Arrived broken!

I wish they would figure out you have to wrap fragile item INDIVIDUALLY and can’t just throw them together in bubble wrap and expect them to survive !

I kinda noticed something suspish!

I buy a lot of earrings on ShopGoodwill and noticed a lot of pairs don’t have backs but they sell a lot of earrings backs separately? Are they selling backs separately to make more money? I can’t remember the location I was looking at but I will update when I figure this out…. Kinda pisses me off if it’s true!

A sweet little girl taken way too soon. Memorial Park Cemetery Topeka Kansas

She was a childhood friend’s baby sister, died of Reye’s Syndrome when knowledge of the disease was still in its infancy. I still remember her and she was a beautiful baby girl. We went to the funeral home (I was six) I remember seeing her laying in her casket. I was kinda traumatized and my mother never forgave herself for taking me. I’m okay now :)
RIP little one!
