Forever changing the surroundings in my apartment. The latest change, replacing the Italian Murano glass retro penguins, for the 19th century Chinese Bronze Foo Dog Lion Figures.
Interestingly, everyone I’ve asked prefers the Murano Penguins.
The final photo is from Russell Winnell, when he photographed my apartment a couple of years ago. I wrote a story for a magazine to accompany the photos, however I’ve made so many bold changes, I can’t give those photos to print, so must get Russell back!
Elegant trio of vintage retro black glass birds. The black pair now joined by an off white interloper.
An interesting word to name the welcomed new addition, quite the opposite to be honest. But was just thinking of the Labor PM and Greens leader and for some reason “Interlopers” came into my mind!
However, not wanting to be political on my business page, I shall stop!
I love the natural oxidisation on this beautifully maintained piece.
Could be cleaned and polished up, but not by me..
I bought this from Gary Kay, Antique Decor, High St, Armadale some years ago and found hiding in my storeroom recently.
So I thought to do a post on my Copper, Bronze, Pewter, Brass, Spelter and pressed metals around my showroom today.
