I saw this at the thrift store today and I regret to say I did NOT buy it. I’m having some … sad feelings about my decision this evening and am wondering if I should go back tomorrow and buy it. It didn’t have a price tag so I was annoyed and didn’t want to carry it around the store and ask how much it was… but maybe I should have….

Allee Willis
OY! Passed it up…… YES, go back. BUT is it a lamp or just a bust? If the latter, I do $15 tops. Unless the top of her head is carved out and you can put stuff inside of her and then I’d go a little higher.
Great shot one way or the other.
Douglas Wood
Don’t walk, RUN back to the thrift shop and buy this at once.
Nessa
Oh dear, she was gone when I went back after work today…. :( I promise I won’t let it happen again, haha! I’m kind of kicking myself, but considering so much stuff was overpriced, maybe she would have been more than I wanted to spend anyway.
Anyway, she wasn’t a lamp, just a bust. She was hollow inside, you could look inside from the bottom.
Her crown kinda looked like it wanted to come off, but I couldn’t it to remove itself and didn’t want to break her. I hope whatever person bought her gives her a good home.

If it makes you feel better, that’s the kind of statue that they find at the beginning of horror movies that later comes alive and eats peoples’ brains.
Nessa
Haha, I feel much better now.

I would have clambered over shelves to get this , what a shame it had gone…
