neat stuff + December's Third Haul of Antiques and Untiques

 The Full-Service Bohemian is at work even on Christmas.

Which brings us to this sweet thing a lady gave me at work today.  (The Full-Service Bohemian has a part-time gig outside of being The Full-Service Bohemian.)

              This is actually a little box, in which are three pieces of of Ferrero Roche candy.

I asked her where she got it, and she told me that she made it, and that she has a group of women who get together to make items like this, just for fun and gifts and such.

Note that it's even cuter in person.

======================================================================

Now onto the antiques and untiques...

                                               a marvelous Nyman Decoys kingfisher

Nyman Decoys were made by the late Ray Nyman, based in New Jersey's Pine Barrens.

Lotsa info on the 'net about Ray and his work.

======================================================================

                                           model boat with sails made from bone !!

======================================================================

                                        super appealing copper finish elephant with howdah

======================================================================

from elephants to pigs...

                        Specifically a bisque pig (or pigs plural. Or pig and piglet) match safe

                                                                        'Me too'

==========================================================================

and another piggie thing...

                                                         pig chocolate mold or candy mold

=======================================================================

On to some vintage fashion...

                                                   Welcome to the Sixties !!

The fabric here has a wooly-ish feel, but I'm guessing it's acrylic pretending to be wool.

Beautifully made, FLAWLESS condition.  

And approximately a contemporary size 6.  

=======================================================================

Thus ends today's collection.
