New Items for the Shop
Over the past few weeks I have been finding some beautiful new things for my space. In the next week or so I will be putting them in the shop.
The first item that I wanted to share with you is an old Made in Italy garden fountain. In it I have diplayed an old map from Paris and some vintage Bingo cards. I think it would be great in a bathroom, or possibly in a garden filled with flowers. The possibilities are endless!!
Here is a pretty Majolica plate to add to anyone’s collection.
Another vignette in the shop with some old cheese boxes, an old galvanized scoop with vintage keys, marble eggs in a pressed glass pedestal dish, a cool celluloid bell with a bee on it, and a small green planter to brighten up anyone’s table.
Don’t you just love this old galvanized apple and fruit carrier. I have added some faux flowers to add some color to it. It would be great on a bench or hanging on a wall as a catch all.
How about this old child’s school bench. So cool!!
This painting would brighten up anyone’s home. It just screams spring!!
Here I found three sets of old french impressionist artist books from the 1940’s. They all include some awesome book plate prints of the artists work. As you can see they are Degas, Gauguin, and Toulouse-Lautrec. They are all so fabulous!! Here is a sampling of a few of the prints from each of the books.
I found this great Audubon styled painting on wood last week. I just love the earthy colors.
I love these Alabaster birds made in Italy. There is something romantic and cottagy about alabaster don’t you think?
This old green chippy medicine cabinet came from the barn that I previously posted about. It had been hanging on the barn wall for many years.
I have saved the best for last. These amazing wall paper panels came out of the barn as well. They are from the late 1800’s and are all hand painted on linen canvas. The first green border panel I was told was French Nouveaux. The second blue border is French as well. The last border is probably dutch. I am actually going to Skinners to get a full appraisal done because of the fact that they are so rare. I can imagine whoever buys them would frame and hang them up and display them as fine works of art. They are by far one of the coolest things that I have found in all of my hunting journeys. Again I would love to keep all of these things for my home, but then I would have nothing to sell in the shop!!
Well that concludes my new but antique items for the shop. If anyone would like to buy any of the items please contact me and we can discuss pricing. I hope that you have enjoyed my latest finds. As the summer goes on I will continue to add new pictures of new items. As always happy hunting!!
