Curiosity Collage #40
We seldom have the time to look closely at objects that are both decorative and useful that have been thoughtfully designed and made by skilled craftsman over the many years - drawer handles, coins, military buttons, and tiny, delicate gears inside clocks…I CELEBRATE THESE!
Please scroll through the photos (there is a small arrow on the edge of the photos) to find the tag that describes every item in the collage. On the brown tag I have divided objects into Artifacts, Antiques - over 100 yrs old, and Vintage - over 40 years old. I also have $ next to things that are valuable enough to sell separately, but I love using items that are really beautiful and don’t care if I use things that are too valuable.
This a more simple black and gold frame. One of the special objects on this is the Turkish public phone token that is no longer in use. (Memories!!) There are 3 brass Victorian drawer handles and one solid brass fancy French drawer pull. One of the military buttons on this collage is a British Royal Army Ordinance Button and a rare French button. I love the old exotic clock face with the copper on the front. There are 2 Anasazi (ancient Pueblo) pottery sherds and 5 foreign coins.
This collage is 14’ x 17”
