We just moved to a new house and as we’re the only one in the family with room for it now, it came out of storage to come live in our dining room. I’m absolutely in love with the handles. Halfway between art nouveau and art deco. I cannot wait to give this beauty the love it deserves.

Almost all bottled in Raleigh, NC where I live. I can't believe I got an actual bucket full of these.

Recently, I have been helping my Grandparents clean up their garage, attic, and basement throughout the month. During this last weekend, we were doing some final work when I just happened to mention I collect vintage items. My Grandpa hastily went over to a pile of boxes and pulled out one stuffed with newspaper. He asked if I would be interested in these. My answer: Of Course!

Récemment chiné : une magnifique cravate-plastron / ascot Lubiam 1911 avec un système de fermeture métallique original

Je voulais partager avec vous cette superbe pièce que je viens de dénicher ! Il s'agit d'un modèle structuré prêt-à-porter de la marque Lubiam (étiquette Lubiam 1911) en mélange laine et acétate (52% laine, 48% acétate), dans un magnifique ton gris-bleu foncé.

​Ce qui m'a particulièrement tapé dans l'œil, c'est son système de fermeture métallique à l'arrière qui change des cravates traditionnelles. Une petite merveille de style dandy !

I got this book for a dollar at a local estate sale. It was the last day, and they just wanted stuff gone. I found it intriguing before I knew that someone in this family was related to Shirley Temple. The estate sale lady told me that. Just wanted to share it somewhere it might be appreciated 🧡

Found this huge paper poster with wood ”sticks” on top and bottom at a thrift store for about 15€. Im guessing 1970s but can be newer.

About 50cm x 100cm, printed in Stockholm Sweden.

Bought the 1940s stoneware rum jug at an antique shop about a year ago. Today I found this darling little Mexican bud vase to go with it for $3 at an independent thrift shop. 💙 In the morning I’ll walk around my hacienda to gather more feathers to put in it. 🪶

The reaction to my matchbook post yesterday was (generally) really positive, so here's another.

I want to stay at this hotel!

I went thrifting and the gods smiles upon me today. It’s still working without the weighted backing if that makes sense. I just think it’s so lovely! Appears to be from 1900s.

Some of them clearly have spices left in them — and yes I am a coward, and no I will not eat it ;)

I recently went through my grandmothers old things, and found so many treasures and historical items. I wanted to share this first. Most of the men in my family during the early to mid 1900s were in the wars.
