Colonial Noah's Ark "Sunday Toy" It took my breath away! I don't know if it was its beauty or the price! I think it is gorgeous. But will have to pass for that much $$$!!!

Wow! I wonder if they have one like it at Colonial Williamsburg to sell. I'll have to look for one next time I'm there...NOT that I can afford it!

That is a beautiful ark! Gotta give credit to the person who sat and carved or whittled that whole thing. It's amazing! [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]

Wow that is gorgeous. Not something I would allow my kids to play with at that price.

Thanks for sharing....

Actually you probably could pick one up for at least that price (maybe even less if you were lucky) Alot of people do not know what they have, and if you keep your eyes peeled (and in constant search) you'd be surprised what you can manage and for what price.

Don't believe me watch Antique roadshow (or the BBC program) Cash in the attic

For example I have a antique doll's pocket watch (worth on its own about 100 dollars) and I got it in a lot of junk.

OMG!! We ordered that a few month's ago! Not kidding! It is GORGEOUS! Espically on our XMAS Dining room table!

Can you post pics??? I was looking on ebay last night for an antique ark. We shall see!!!

For that price, as beautiful as it is.. I'd rather take my chance and see if I could get my hands on a real (made in colonial times) ark

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I imagine a "real" ark from that time would fetch many times this price. I certainly don't have the money for it, but for handcrafted, that is a reaonsable price to ask for your work.
