Vintage 1960 hand-crafted mosaic (pattern of pieces), with bamboo chips/shavings glued on dark brown textile. They have a folk art look and are framed in bamboo.

SELLER'S NOTE:
**
The clear pictures I have provided super-cede my title, description, and condition. Please look at all pictures and ask questions before you "Bid" or click the "Buy It Now" button, whichever applies. For s/h cost and time... keep in mind the item ships from Maryland.
Payment
Please use eBay managed payments when checking out. This is eBay's preferred method of payment. You can still use PayPal through managed payments.
Shipping
I ship by USPS (United States Post Office) and FedEx for larger/heavy items. I ship within 2 days or sooner of cleared payment. If the item is too large for shipping it will be listed as "Pick Up Only". On items being picked up, it will be the responsibility of the Buyer to work with my schedule or arrange for a shipping company to do so. I am flexible.
I can offer International shipping if asked. Sorry costs are so high.
If the item is breakable or expensive, then "The Item Is Insured" as the "Handling Cost Includes Insurance". If the item you receive is damaged during shipping, please contact me right away and keep all original packing material and the box. Again, please contact me, not eBay; they did not pack and ship the item, I did!
IMPORTANT:
Please remember I am on the east coast. The west coast is far away as is Texas, Nevada, Colorado, Kansas, Oregon, North Dakota, etc. After a box exceeds 12 x 12 x 12 inches or depending on the weight, the cost to many locations is
expensive
. Do not forget I have to purchase my tape, packing peanuts, bubble, fragile stickers, mailing labels, and sometimes the boxes depending on the size and shape of the item. As a Buyer, you are paying for shipping and handling costs unless Free Shipping is offered.
If you think the shipping cost is high and are looking for a discount, please call the U.S. Post Office or FedEx! When they are not raising rates (which is all the time), then they are adjusting weights and sizes which increases the cost as well. However, the post office has done an outstanding job for my business over the past 19 years.
PS: Please make sure you are putting the right zip code into the eBay calculator when calculating costs to your location and check all shipping options I have offered, not just the first one that comes up, but scroll down or click on the actual shipping tab.
Terms of Sale
I will always ship the item properly described and pictures will be of the actual item, never a stock photo unless I state that. Remember that my items "Sell As Is" and you will get the one described and that was in the photos unless otherwise noted.
Bid with confidence and please take a look at my 19+ years of feedback!
If you have problems with tracking or an item is damaged when it arrives, I will assist in any way I can. I will make it right to include the shipping/handling if it is my error.
What I am not here for:
so you can buy an item just to see it or try it out
. As most of my items are used, vintage or antique, that is where the many clear pictures I provide come into play including an accurate description. Internet sales of used items can be hard as you are unable to see and handle it up close. That is why it is so important that if something is not clear or you do not understand something, then you
must
ask questions.
PLEASE BE SURE BEFORE YOU BID OR BUY! I want satisfied customers who come back.
*****Also, eBay is an e-commerce company that provides the internet service for which you the "Buyer" and myself the "Seller" can conduct business. eBay is not my customer service department, I am! That is why it is imperative you contact me, not them for any questions about the listing, shipping, tracking, any problems or issues at all. Please respect me and I will respect you and I will do my best to resolve all matters. My feedback speaks volumes and I will continue to be a professional and upright Seller on eBay's internet site!
Respectfully,
Douglas B Sipes
About Us
I am located in western Maryland. I purchase local items from auctions, estates, garage sales, etc. for resale. Most of the time my items are not new. I do offer some NOS (new old stock) items from time to time and occasionally brand new items. Most of my items are vintage, antique, collectible and most of the time they are used items. Please keep "USED" in mind when bidding or buying. I will always try to provide good clear pictures all the way around an item and describe all deficiencies or issues that I see or find. I will do my best to not mislead in my titles or descriptions and use categories that best fit the item. If I am not sure or it is my opinion I will tell you that.
Please look at all pictures and please ask questions if you are not sure. If you are still not sure about an item then please ask more questions or for more details. Please remember that many phone apps do not show all the pictures or information and you may have to get on a computer for full details. Thanks.
