I bought an unusual Australian made retro vase today.

I think I still like the original circular vase better, as makes a more traditional display.
I’d love to hear what my friends think? And customers.
I added photos of the circular vase and the last with the previous flowers.

Miss having Charlie to teach the trade and Jack hanging around.

Unusual late 19th century hand coloured lithographs of palms – Basil Besler.

After nearly two years of retirement sale and selling 2/3 of my entire stock at heavily reduced prices.

I was nearly at the end of trading, until my Son Charlie and daughter Allie informed me they would like to take over the family business.

This is very touching to me, I love their devotion to my business of 34 years. So SALE signs about to be removed pricing back to normal.

Charlie’s farewell at Behruz recently

I’m so happy I popped in to see Charlie give his gift of appreciation to Amir & Omid, for having him work there this year.

Charlie had the number plate ‘Behruz’ made. Was very special seeing them open the box.

The boys and entire wonderful staff have been a true blessing for Charlie, like a second family.

The beauty of plants and flowers in your home.

I recently replaced the plants to my jardinier in living/dining room. They’re quite perfect, but very hard to photograph.

I have many plants inside and outside my apartment, most belonged to my mother Nina, so I love having them around.

I look after my plants even compliment every now and then..
The flowers I regularly place on my dining table “interlopers” to the indoor plants are also well maintained, trimmed and re watered, to last as long as possible.
Thought I’d take a few quick snaps this morning and post.

Flowers and antiques blend beautifully ✨
