Price drops, "smalls", Kimono, and Tremoloa

The big news is that price drop time has rolled in. Just in time for the weekend. So, if you've been eying something for a while, make your move :^)

The small news is that we are truly swimming in smalls! These are the fun, intriguing, little items that fill in around the edges of the consigned furniture. I seem to have accepted more than I had room for, but they give me a breather from moving couches and china cabinets around. Come for tea and look through the latest small treasures:
100-year-old leather postcards, wooden stationery boxes, Danish art plates,
dishes to use on Canada Day, ornate candle holders...
Silver-plated ice bucket and scoop,
beaded handbag by Christiana, little vanity chair...
   


Full-length, Hong Kong kimono in shimmering purple/cobalt brocade.
Machine-washable silk and rayon blend. Robe is 48" around, backlength 56". $48.


I'd never heard of a Tremoloa and thought it was an autoharp at first glance.
Related to a zither! This one is from the 1950's.
Includes case, instructional booklets, and a display stand. $60.

Of course, this is just a small peek at what has come in, but I hope it is enough to whet your interest. See you soon!
