I love when I come across French antiques... It doesn't happen terribly often shopping mostly in Nebraska and Ohio, and my heart always pitter-pats when I see something like this - a white enamel wall-mount salt box with word "Sel" on the front. I found it at a little antique store in Ohio, and I loved the beautiful blue French writing and the worn spots where the dark metal was showing through underneath. And the best part about finding a treasure like this in a small, local, down-to-earth antique shop is that the price is usually down-to-earth as well. :) You may have to search a little harder, but it just makes the reward that much sweeter!
My gosh ~ what a wonderful treasure. This "sel" box is surely a beauty ;-)
ReplyDeleteI like the little salt box... and the story of the hunt! That makes it exciting.
ReplyDeleteThat is wonderful. One day perhaps I may find something like this.
