A few new finds.

I know I have not been blogging recently (sorry Alice), but we've had some issues with this ole computer...and when it is working
the Internet is soooo slow...uploading photos is a real chore, so sometimes I just lose interest...

But one thing I never lose interest in is hunting out treasures...and recently I came across a few beauties...

I can't resist old red books and I thought that this pair were quite smart...

look at those spines.

What did Mother say...

Well I'm sure she said 'Well done' to Rosa for her regular attendance...

And what about the cherries...I think we better buy our own..

I wonder if Philip Smith liked cherries...

I then tottered off to a collectibles fair on the recent bank holiday and I'm very happy with these finds...

I thought that this little girl needed to come home with me...she definitely needs a hug...

she was painted in 1891, such a long time ago...

I've been after one of these domes for ages...and I found a man with loads...they used to have clocks or stuffed animals in them...now people buy them to display various items. He told be about a lady who bought a large one to display her 'Jimmy Choos'...perhaps her feet had swelled and she couldn't wear them anymore!!

I also found this ebony mirror with the little monogram, a while ago in an antique emporium...it goes nicely with the more ornate silver one.
