This full collection of 25 World Wildlife Federation bone-China thimbles were made by the Franklin Mint and found in a sandwhich bag at the bottom of a Goodwill bin. 5 of the 20 have had a repair or are chipped. Please see the photos for details.
Many folks are selling these collections online (and not even the full set) for $50 and up. I'd just like for them to go to someone that loves them!
Damaged thimbles include Cheetah, Racoon, Deer, Wolves and Rabbits. Someone repaired them poorly and set them on brown paper to cure. You can see the paper on the bottom where it was glued. One of them, the Cheetah, is a hairline crack that was glued well, but still has the paper on the bottom, that can maybe be sanded off.
*Remember, this price include the shipping.

Please look at the information and photos carefully as I will disclose any known issues or defects in the products I sell. These are unique pre-owned items that aren't always 100% flawless. When it comes to vintage and antiquities, sometimes the imperfections or patina show the age of a piece and make it that much more special.
With that said, if something is really wrong with a piece, like your cat figurine had a tail in the image but didn't show up with a tail, or if I don't pack it well (which I promise to try!) and it comes in a million pieces, of course, I will give you a refund. I want to keep you happy and coming back to shop for more rescued treasures!
Please feel free to email me at amy@yosoboho.com with any refund questions. I may simply ask for photos if your item shows up damaged so I can refund.
Also, you can cancel your order any time prior to shipping.
And finally, I hope you cherish your purchase for life, but if you decide down the road that your rescued treasure no longer fits your aesthetic, please consider donating it to an organization that uses its proceeds to help people!
Every item in this shop - depending on its size - has been estimated for flat rate USPS shipping and that cost (pouch, small, medium, or large box) has already been added to the cost of the item. So when you check out there will be no surprises!
