Buona Domenica a tutti!
nelle scorse settimane ho partecipato a delle aste di eBay dalle quali ho acquistato vari tipi di occhiali inglesi dell'epoca vittoriana (devo ammetterlo, ho proprio la fissa per tutto ciò che è vittoriano).
Alcune aste non sono andate bene, altre invece sono state per me veri colpi di fortuna essendo riuscita ad aggiudicarmi gli articoli che desideravo a prezzi veramente bassi. Beh, che dire, a volte succede anche questo.
Sono riuscita a portare a casa degli occhialini placcati d'oro di varie forme, due stringi naso ed un binocolo da opera del famoso ottico parigino Chevalier. Per trovare loro subito la degna collocazione mi sono divertita a creare delle vignette giocando con quello che è già in bella mostra a casa ed ora credo proprio di aver trovato la loro collocazione ideale - almeno per un pò. Ora voglio proprio mostrarveli.

Happy Sunday Everyone!
The past week I was pretty busy with eBay auctions. I don't always purchase from eBay but over the years I was able to find antique and vintage treasures that could be mine for reasonable prices.
This time I was on the lookout for antique Victorian opticals (I'm a bit obsessed with all things Victorian) and as things turned out I participated in several auctions. Some were unlucky but some were very lucky ones that allowed me to buy/win very nice items for a song, and now I'm the lucky owner of two adorable antique pince nez spectacles (one of them is gold filled) , three gold filled spectactles and opera glasses from the famous Parisian optician Chevalier. They are all antique and in very good condition as you can see from the pics and came to me straight from the UK.
To create nice displays for my new treasures I arranged some vignettes with other treasures I already had at home. It was fun and I think they will stay like this for a while.
Let me now show them to you (is a bit of show off allowed?)

RispondiEliminaTry to make sure that what you are selling is unique. It is harder to sell something you would not buy yourself and aren't particularly passionate about. satta king
