Erte said:
A costume for a fancy dress ball inspired this sculpture
Design was published in Harper’s Bazaar in 1921
Woman’s headdress represents a huge sun shimmering with gold beads
The 1920’s was an era of new sun worship and fancy dress balls
Always been in my very clean home since purchase

I wish you were in Chicago. I’d love to meet you. I’m an artist and very into art history.

Before Covid, worked in Chicago often
Perhaps after Covid- will again
kb72shopper
@phoebeaarons1 Oh, by all means, get in touch with me if you are in Chicago. I used to volunteer as a Chicago Greeter and I worked as a docent at the Driehaus Museum. ( if you haven’t been…I think you would love it!)

@kb72shopper Sounds great - you could give us a tour

Hello :) You have great home decor items on your page! I would love for you to join as a seller in any of my live shows. If you like the top listing on my page it will notify you when I'm on. It's most days :)
phoebeaarons1
@countryclubvtg Thank you for saying that
We do not know HOW to be in a live show
Is there somewhere we can read to learn how to do it
We appreciate your offer
Thank you

Hello, please check out the top listing in my closet. Looking to get a group of ten antique or handmade item sellers together each week for a group sale. Your items are great and I would like to invite you to consider signing up. Thanks

try Bonhams. I am familiar. even after seller fees and all house commissions, you should realize a bit more than PM's 20%.
sybaritica
* more than after
phoebeaarons1
@sybaritica ThNk you
sybaritica
If we get to know each other better, I might be able to guide you through the auction process and all their hidden commissions and seller premiums. Bonhams, in my humble opinion, the least unscrupulous. comparatively speaking to the other two. C & S
sybaritica
their are alternative options to auctions as well. But will require legwork and connections. Best regards to you and your family.
sybaritica
Apologies for my prior intrusion. Just write to them, submit your pictures, and they will provide an estimate. (put a reserve on it). I hope they come through for you. Thanks again for "sharing" our items.

@sybaritica Thank You
