A little peek at my collection....by Carolyn H

After blogging about a carved Ostrich egg, a blue rooster, what I did in the holidays and restoring ceramics I guess it's time to share some photo's of my collection?
Above: a large colourful platter decorated in the broderie style and featuring a Breton sitting on a rock.

1930's Quimper including a C. Maillard jug and two Breton gentlemen, by Andre Galland, one atop a barrel the other a jug.

Quimper and antique pewter items complement each other.

A beautiful Swan with cygnet egg cups, all six!

A Quillivic Celtic style cross and a pair of holy water fonts,(bénitier).


A pair of egg cup holding swans flank a large swan basket and are surrounded by smaller swan items on the hutch.
