Now, imagine it shaped like Buddha ...

You never know when you might have need for a rose quartz Buddha.

Although I'll be working (insert frowny face HERE), I'd love to go to this estate sale 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Thursday through Saturday at 4906 E. 92nd St.

Mike Ratcliffe, namesake of Mike Ratcliffe Appraisals and Estate Sales, said this one will be his "largest estate sale ever," what with 7,600 square-feet upstairs and a five-car garage with workshop downstairs.

The family owned oil and liquor businesses, and lived very lavishly, he said. The sale will include paintings, watercolors, engravings
(including equestrian) and a fine bronze.

Furniture includes custom pieces by Baker, Jack Daniels, Widdicomb, McGuire and a Herschede grandfather clock. There is crystal, fine china, Majolica, Imari, Waterford, Fiesta, Frankoma, Belleek and more.

Asian items include scrolls, brass, cloisonne and that rose quartz Buddha I was telling y'all about. The kitchen has small appliances, Revere ware and lots of copper.

Primitives include marbled graniteware, vintage tins, copper kettles and a copper still from the early 1900s. You'll also find vintage furs, coats, formals, ladies suits, hats and a pair of ladies' cream leather chaps.

Plus, find a great assortment of bar items including an antique Miller tray, Coors Keg, vintage travel liquor sets, a beer stein collection and vintage decanters.

The garage has Craftsman tools and standing toolbox, Massey-Ferguson 2526 lawn tractor, 1989 Lincoln Towncar, vintage commercial lawn sprayer
and more.

Need more? Call 918-230-8310. Oh, it's cash or check only, so come prepared.

Peace, love and rose quartz Buddhas ... XOXO

Living Wright

While other kids were watching "The Smurfs," Scene Writer Jason Ashley Wright was tuned in to "Style with Elsa Klensch." By fourth grade, he knew he wanted to write, and spent almost three years publishing a weekly teen-oriented magazine, Teen-Zine -- circulation: 2. After earning a degree in journalism from the University of Southern Mississippi, he became the medical reporter and teen board coordinator for the Hattiesburg (Miss.) American, a Gannett newspaper. Eight months later, with visions of Elsa dancing in his head, he applied for the fashion writer position at the Tulsa World, where he began working on Aug. 3, 1998. He is now a general assignment reporter for Scene.
