French chic.....
I bought these lovely French candle sconces yesterday at the monthly, midweek Antique Fair in Hexham, Northumberland.....

Along with a gold painted spelter figure of Mary....
A couple of French department store bag handles....the French ladies would hook the handles around the string of their parcel making it easier to carry....... very clever....
And a most beautifully painted glass bottle with enamel detail all the way around. Unfortunately the neck has been damaged, but I had to have it regardless......
A la prochaine.....

ReplyDeleteLovely treasures you've found. I'm out early in the morning hopefully I'll find some too and hopefully it will stop raining before then.
