A few things that I saw in a brocante in my neighborhood (the 12th arrondissement) in Paris.

I have no need for something like these lovely cups and saucers but I sure do like them.

I’m not sure where I could put this screen but I wouldn’t mind having one.

I think this is a little container to hold salt. I thought it was really cute.

Sort of a strange plate. What would you use it for? Maybe put some real eggs on it?

I was tempted to buy this little vase with Napoleon and Josephine painted on it but decided I didn’t need something else to dust.

I really liked this chair. When you sat on it, it sank a little making it very comfortable. I just love the way it looks. I would love it in my yard in Provence. Two problems, though–how would I get them from Paris to Provence and I would have had to buy four of them at the cost of 1800 Euros. Oh well.
