Antique Books, China, and a quiet little Mouse

Here are a few of this week's finds... enjoy!





The fairy tales book was listed last night .... David Copperfield and the poetry book will be next week.



He may look quiet as a mouse but I just know he's thinking about eating that cheese! Cute salt and pepper set.





Black crystal earrings...






This set was inspired by the feather plume. Love it!





Violets plate. This was from my Grandmother's plate collection... she wrote "Uncle Joe" on the back of it but I have no idea who this person was...






It may look a bit on the chippy side but this French book is a collection of victor hugo poems... and it was sent from France to a young woman's mother. So neat!





An antique hymnal book




And a pink book filled with Shirley Temple's favorites...





The illustration on the front just caught my eye and I loved this book at first sight.




And a N'Orleans, Louisiana French cookbook. Oh so delicious recipes inside!






All, just listed last night in my shop.
