I spent the morning on one of my favorite routes in NE Pennsylvania, hitting charity shops, thrift stores and ending at my reliable Tuesday afternoon box lot auction. With patience, a sharp eye and some digging around I can usually find a few things of interest. It's fun to come home and do "display" with my new finds. The mirror is something I found in a charity shop this morning.The shoes are all leather. Fine detail stitching. Probably ethnic origin.

Two frames apart


The Airstream is a cast model I got at Pottery Barn about a decade or more ago?
The "wrestlers" are by Lafayette L. Rittgers.
The crystal vessels are Danish.
The crystal carafe is my mother's.
