As usual I've had my eye on lots of goodies lately, sometimes I'm looking to buy, sometimes I'm looking to see what things are worth and sometimes I look at a piece over and over again just because it's so beautiful.
I keep lots of pictures for reference, here are some of my favourites from the last few months.
1920s wool swimsuit with all original bakelite buttons
Bakelite bangle which contains a compact - see below
Most of these items were out of my price range on any level, but isn't it nice to sometimes window-shop just for the sake of learning and inspiration?
I'm determined to get one of these big 50s American lamps one day!
Taxidermy purse with the body of a frog...let's all say it together now, EWWW!
Blue monkey fur coat, apparently very rare.
Such gorgeous colours, I know not all my readers like or approve of fur but I love it and wear it as much as I can.
Spectacular lucite box purse with inset flowers to the domed lid.
Huge collection of midcentury Arabia finel enamelware.
Tiger print fur bag with lucite handles and frame, an excellent-ly fun piece.
Yet another lamp, it doesn't look too flash like this but look below, when it's lit up.
How cool is that!
