I have a collection of English stone jugs such as these......thanks to sweet Susie at SuzAnna's Antiques. Mine are cracked, crazed and chipped, one even bottomless, such character, and they came home with me for just pennies, some even less! These beauties at the import store are rather expensive.
The leaded mica stars are truly lovely ~ their colors muted but glowing when hit by light. Doesn't everyone love star shapes? 
Vintage glass jars with oxidized tin lids are easy to find, usually American Ball brand canning jars....................but look how splendid these French apothecary jars are with their original labels. Rather pricey though.
Several old iron scales reminded me of ones still used at the French outdoor markets I frequented in Provence last Autumn.
Heavy cloches in shapes and sizes for all tastes ~ the bubbled glass with a gentle green tinge. These were on sale so I couldn't resist buying one.
More from this great shopping venue coming soon..................are you looking for a special door? A grand entry could be in your future.

Every time you take us there, I like it more and more! What a fantastic place to shop! Maybe a bit dangerous too, if you're trying to watch your pocketbook! ~Lori
ReplyDeleteThanks for letting us see these delightful treasures!
ReplyDeleteWhat delights to the eyes and heart. It would be difficult to resist some of those beauties.
ReplyDeleteI saw some of those jugs here and there when I was in England. Your photography in this post is very lovely and artistically done, as always.
ReplyDeleteI do appreciate your comment about the buttercups. Wish I had taken a close up of one while I had the chance!
You have such great stores in your area. It's so different here. I should get out and see what I can find but there won't be any bargain prices.
ReplyDeleteI do so enjoy your visits to your antique store! The glass cloches are just lovely!
ReplyDeleteWow! I love that gazebo! What a great place!
