It is going to be warm here this weekend and I plan to have the kiddie pool filled every day. When I filled it up a few days ago for the first time, I had a crazy flashback moment. I think this pool ...

Happy Monday! Todays locket is an unusual one. A thick, oval piece with Mother of Pearl inlays creating a background for two detailed scenes. I think this is probably an early mid-century souvenir pi...
