mackem 26,262 Posted May 7 Report Share Posted May 7 I saw a Louis Vuitton travel case from the days of long boat voyages over a century old today,touched the handles and wondered it’s journeys,worth 10’s of 1000’s of pounds (Alongside its modern counterpart). 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
eastcoast 4,115 Posted May 15 Report Share Posted May 15 Not in true context with the thread, out of place as just lazily acquired mass produced prints but I like them. I like the artist, Paul Lovering. Got the Marilyn Monroe one today. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You can be like Moses and part the canal Think I will go for a longer stick for two reasons, one as I said a long stick is usfull going up steep muddy hills and second if it don’t work out I can cut it down we’re as I can’t make a walking stick bigger 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

eastcoast 4,115 Posted July 25 Report Share Posted July 25 (edited) Not acquired but seen today. There's a tiny antique centre directly across from one of our current projects and I often pop in for a nose around. My knowledge of antiques and collectables is restricted to watching Bargain Hunt and Dickinson's Real Deal. Appealed more for the deer and dogs aspect than any Art Nouveau credentials. Seemed ligit though. MFL pewter c.1906. Not rare, a quick Google search found the same ranging from £160 to £450. £225 price on the one I seen today. I wont be buying it but enjoyed finding and looking at it. Edited July 25 by eastcoast WMF not MFL 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
