Weekly Roundup of eBay Vintage Home Finds (PHOTOS)

HuffPost Social Reading

Want to add some fab eco-friendly style to your home but have no time to page through thousands of eBay listings? Then just sneak a peek at my Weekly eBay Roundup of Vintage Home Finds.

This eclectic mix of designer and non-designer vintage home finds caught my discerning eye because of their uniqueness, contemporary feel or highly collectible nature.

As always, buyer beware! Be sure to read the listings closely and contact the sellers with any questions.

Today's selections include pieces by Dorothy Thorpe, Limoges, Tiffany and George Nelson. Be sure to check out the rare Zahara Schatz lucite lamp, the Tiffany spinning clock and barometer and the gorgeous 1920s Limoges handpainted plate set.

Which item is your favorite? Leave me a comment below to let me know and please take a minute to rate your favorite slides.

There is nothing there that I wouldn't donate to the Good Will and be happy to see it leave. The couch/table looks like it should be in a badly furnished dentist's office.

I can just see you typing that happily snuggled on your overstuffed floral-print couch.

I have no idea why, but I like the fish plates.

If you look closely you can see that they are each slightly different from each other due to the handpainting. I thought they were just beautiful!

Not getting the attraction for mid-century modern. Thought it was rather ugly in the mid-century.

Different strokes for different folks, I guess. It's still quite popular with lots of folks out here on the West Coast.

Here, too, but I still don't understand it. I remember it being in homes when I was a child in the late 50s, early 60s. Thought it was ugly and cold then and think it's ugly and cold now! Just not a comfortable look, in my opinion.
