Description

The listing, Beautiful Porcelain CONCH SHELL Vase / Candy Dish / Planter!!! MUST SEE!!! FREE Shipping! has ended.

This Stunning Porcelain Conch-SHELL-shaped Dish can be used for just about anything you can dream of! Some of my suggestions are: as a candy dish; as home decor (just fill with beads, candles, or even by itself); as a convenient (and not to mention pretty) place to put your perfume bottles, lotions, chapsticks; as a place for your stationary (pens, postcards, erasers; as a vase for flowers, whether real or plastic... So you can see, the possibilities are endless! Why don't you give me some of your own suggestions in the comments to make this more fun?

As to what I know about this vintage gorgeous shell, there is a sticker on the back that reads
"FINE PORCELAIN"
"Made in MEXICO"
"64038."
The shell measures approximately 11.25 inches in length, 6.75 inches wide, and 3.5 inches high. It is an ivory white color, white some accents of creamy peach in the design.
There are no cracks or chips in it, as far as I can see. I tried looking this up online, but didn't find anything even close to this. Perhaps it is an antique, and therefore, a collectible?

Anyway, the point is, you all have a chance at this! So bid, Bid, BId, BID!!!

This comes from a smoke-free / pet-free home. FREE shipping to the contiguous US!

Feel free to ask any questions, should they arise, and I'll try to answer to the best of my ability. If not, then PLEASE comment to show that you stopped by! And remember that FANS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME!

Finally, before I forget, I will wrap this in layers of bubble wrap, tape, and intend to double box it to prevent any damage!

*** By the way, I took all of the photos, so these are pictures of the actual shell you'll be getting. Please NOTE that the candy, beads, flowers, lotions, body sprays, and so on are NOT INCLUDED. These were used for photographic purposes ONLY. ***

THANK YOU TO ALL FOR LOOKING, and GOOD LUCK!!!

smelly chips (fragrance rocks) .....jewelry.....decorative shells (smaller ones of course) :)
Very very purrrdy...Fan'd & watch'n

Oct 26th, 2011 at 7:15:30 PM PDT by

Great idea!!! It would look nice filled with jewelry... and what about those shell chip beads? You can always fill in the bottom with them to make it more shallow, and then place your jewelry on top to show it off.
Thanks for commenting! And good luck to you as well!

Aww, thank you sooo much! Fanned you as well!

Maybe have the one who reaches the 500 mark 1st choose what bonus should go inside like one of those great ideas above....(smaller shells, small molds of soaps, fashion jewelry, or pretty stones or smelly stuff.....or ponytail holders, or hair pin & clips).....Something small & not expensive of course....unless bonus at higher credit amount...(then you could do things like full size or travel size bottles of soap or lotions or perfume) endless possibilities ;)

Nov 4th, 2011 at 10:04:35 PM PDT by

That's a great idea! I'll think on it. Thanks for the suggestion!

Nov 5th, 2011 at 10:45:37 AM PDT by

I'm a fan! As soon as I seen this I thought of making it a planter but after reading your listing decided its too good for a plant it looks great aside my other shells. Great listing.

Nov 2nd, 2011 at 6:54:33 PM PDT by

Thanks! ;)

Nov 3rd, 2011 at 5:20:37 PM PDT by
