Up For Your Consideration: Nice, mid-century bark-on nut bowl with vintage, HMQ metal nutcracker and picks. (Picks match.) This was made by taking a slice of a log, putting it on a lathe, and hollowing out the inside, leaving the bottom intact. A wood center piece conveniently holds the nutcracker and picks. There is felt on the bottom. Label on bottom: Ellwood Rusticware The Finest in Rustic Souvenirs and Household Gifts.Approximate measurement: 7 3/4" at widest x 2 5/8" high.Year: Mid-CenturyCondition: Very good, pre-owned condition. Shows minimal wear but don't expect perfection. Picks/nutcracker may have a bit of rust and need detailed when received.Please examine photos closely. Photos are binding and are a supplement to anything I may have left out of my written description. In other words, if it shows up in my photos but not in my writing and vice versa, it doesn't qualify as a 'not as described' item. In case of dispute, eBay requires both seller and buyer to upload photos, submit communication, and submit listing.FOR INTERNATIONAL BUYERS ONLY -- Please Note: Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or buying. Customs fees are normally charged by the shipping company or collected when you pick the item up. These fees are not additional shipping charges. We won't under-value merchandise or mark the item as a gift on customs forms. Doing that is against U.S. and international laws.**** THANKS FOR STOPPING BY AND ! PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING ****IF THERE SHOULD BE ANY PROBLEM with your order, contact me ( using 'contact seller' option in your purchase history, NOT the 'resolution center' ) and please allow me to resolve the issue before leaving any feedback.I do my best to describe everything in detail with words and photos. But, I'm chief cook and bottle washer . . . and human. It's possible I can overlook something. I'd like to keep my high rating and to keep customers satisfied and willing to leave only positive feedback -- even when something goes wrong on rare occasions. Due to new eBay policy, negative and even neutral feedback and/or a complaint through the resolution center (opening a case) is more detrimental to the seller than the buyer may intend or may not be aware of strictly as buyer. I'm easy to get along with and can fix the problem very quickly--usually within 24 hours after you contact me.BEFORE YOU BID, please e-mail me if you have any questions regarding the item for sale, refund policy, etc. To do this scroll down the page of the item in which you are interested. There will be a blue, highlighted link labeled 'Ask a Question' under 'Questions and Answers About This Item.'NEED TIME TO PAY? Life happens, doesn't it. Payment is due within four (4) days after you win the item. I can make exceptions, giving you more time to pay, IF YOU CONTACT ME BEFORE the fourth day after you have won the item. Otherwise, Unpaid Item Assistant automatically kicks in, giving you a bit more time but you risk getting a strike against your account.IF YOU ABSOLUTELY CAN'T PAY, we can mutually agree to cancel the transaction. But you must contact me if this is the case.I COMBINE SHIPPING when, according to my judgment, it can be done safely. Contact me if you are going to purchase more than one item up to ten (10) in a seven-(7) day period. Remember . . . after the fourth day of no pay from the first winning bid, the Unpaid Item Assistant kicks in. But I can prevent this IF YOU CONTACT ME. Request total after shopping and/or wait for my revised invoice BEFORE paying. This eliminates any delays with your order.I DO NOT SEND ANYTHING FOR LESS THAN $4.12. If you are purchasing something lightweight, please keep this in mind. By purchasing something lightweight from me you are agreeing you are happy with the shipping fee. Take advantage of this cost by purchasing more items from me at one time and making the best of the minimal fee. I will be glad to let you know if the combined shipment of the items you choose are still at or under my minimal shipping charge.IF YOU ARE PURCHASING AN ITEM WITH FREE SHIPPING, you will get free shipping and the minimum charge mentioned above does not apply. However, if you buy an item with free shipping and an item which free shipping is not offered and want me to combine the shipment, you will still get charged for shipping the item which free shipping is not offered. Confused? Contact me and I will try to clarify in more detail.ADDRESS: If you want the item shipped to someone else, contact me BEFORE you pay. This eliminates any delays with your order. If shipping to your address, please check to make sure address is entered in the correct format. For example, there can only be forty (40) characters in the space for 'name'. Break the name up, if necessary, and use both lines allotted for the street address to compensate. Again, having things correct BEFORE YOU PAY prevents a delay in receiving your item. IF YOU LIVE IN A HIGH RISE make sure you put your floor number in your address. Post Office will not deliver if this number is not included and item will sit at your post office until you pick it up. If you miss the 'holding for pickup' deadline, they will ship it back to me and you will NOT get the cost of shipping refunded (both to and from your address) to you EVEN if it was free shipping. (I still have to pay for 'free shipping.')****************************I sell all kinds of items.If purchasing vintage glass (even fired-on Pyrex) or cold-painted pieces from me or anyone else, please, PLEASE do not put in your dishwasher. Hand-wash only as dishwashing can permanently dull vintage glass and will ruin cold-painted pieces immediately by removing all the charming paint.Do not hand scrub cold-painted pieces but test in a less noticeable area for tolerance to a light rub with cold water and mild soap. Safest bet is to just dust cold-painted pieces and keep them away from areas where grease will settle upon them.******************************Measurements are ALWAYS approximate.Colors in photos are as accurate as possible on my monitor. Monitors DO vary, however.Contact me for questions. I answer quickly! Remember to use 'contact seller' and not the resolution center.*******************************ALL BUYERS :IF the system won't let you bid on my item(s), please contact me and I will consider on case-by-case basis. One reason you may not be able to bid is because you don't have a I can override this setting, however.PAYMENT through PayPal only. (PayPal takes most credit cards, debit cards, e-checks, etc.) Payment is due within 4 business days. eBay Unpaid Item Assistant will automatically kick in after the four day period. PayPal e-check must clear before shipment. IF YOU DON'T HAVE A PAYPAL ACCOUNT , you can still use PayPal guest checkout without setting up an account. You will still have to have a credit card or another PayPal-accepted electronic ability to pay. To get to the guest checkout, just go through the usual checkout procedure and scroll down until you see an option for 'guest checkout' (or something similar).RETURN POLICY : Fourteen days. CONTACT ME FIRST TO LET ME KNOW YOU ARE RETURNING ITEM. Buyer pays for shipping and must use tracking on any return.At my discretion, I may not require the item to be returned. Instead, I will request proof the item was damaged during shipment or 'not as described.' The proof would be (but not limited to) in the form of pictures or sending me just an easily identifiable, broken piece (I choose the part I want sent back) from the item at the buyer's expense. If you purchased an apparel item from me, you will have to submit a photo proving it doesn't fit the intended person, soiled area, or whatever the complaint may be. This saves buyer time in receiving refund and return shipping expense. read more
