Look What I Found!

While doing more antique shopping along the Lake Michigan shore (well, not actually ON the shore, but close enough!) on Friday with THGGM, I found a few small things.

The antiques mall was having a sale and almost everything was 20% off.

As we were paying, I noticed behind me was a tall cabinet and sitting rather precariously on top of it was  the pitcher pictured above.

I had THGGM (who is tall) take it down for me.

It was more than two hundred dollars less than a similar one I'd recently seen a couple of hours down the highway.

And it was 20% off.

Of course, I snapped it up.  It has a slight condition issue (who doesn't)  which attributed to it's fantastic price.  This is why I don't mind condition issues.  Were there no condition issues I wouldn't be able to afford anything.

It's that cute little face above that sold me.  To me, that's art.  And she looks like family.
