Some of this look sort of reminds me the Florida style.. mostly that big wicker chair. My grandparents had it in Fort Lauderdale. The look also reminds me of some Pier One stuff.
Oy.

One thing I noticed that is selling ok is the vintage wicker colorful trivets from the 1970's if you can lot them together.

 

I don't like wicker furniture .... I can't stand the sound it makes when you sit, shift, or get up from it.

 

AJ my grandparents had a big golden yellow cushion on the seat part of that chair so it was comfy. But I get your meaning as it is not quiet when you move.

 

Sure that's the furniture......?

 

.... uhhhhhh ..... well there is more room out than in

 

When my GM broke up housekeeping, I asked for her wicker set. No one else had the slightest interest. I think it was from the 30's/40's. Looks like what is called Bar Harbour. 35 years later, still some of the most comfortable seats in the house, for me. Not so for my 6'2' DH, but, he's stopped resisting.
Due to him, I developed a taste for Star Trek - Next Generation, so I've told him: "Resistance is futile."

 

That's what Whoopie's mother used to say !

 

Hmmm, speaking of Next Generation! I'm not a wicker freak myself, but if y'all can make a buck selling it to someone else go for it!

 

Online purchase. His facial expression is full of... something.

 

We inherited a wicker suite (conservatory furniture) and I wanted to get rid of it straight away... until I realised how comfortable it was!!! We used it for years,and I still miss it now...

I've been wanting one of the chairs on the right FOREVER! Love it. Classic design .

 

I went hunting two days straight and all I found was ways to spend money in the grocery store. Tonight however is a rummage sale...if I make it out... and there's a craft fair tomorrow morning with a white elephant room. I loves me some white elephant room.

 

I've had this 1874 desk standish by Ulysse Besnard (faience de Blois) for a couple of months and have just enjoyed looking it.

Time for it to go so I decided to add it to my 19th century ceramics listings on Etsy, not in any expectation of a sale but it should let me enjoy it for a while longer!

 

"You will rue the day you took this picture of me!"

 

Very unique and pretty....I love the colors!!!!

 

RH, I think it's LOVELY! (I sort of have a "thing" for those colors!):

 

Looks like a lavish setting... with agaves and small palm trees. I think this was actually taken outdoors, not in a fake studio set, am I right?

 

the plants look real....but where are the shadows..?

 

I'd say a rice spoon, this is the kind of repoussé work made in Cambodia or Indochina

 

Only the shadows know.... cue scary music.

 

I was thinking the same thing ...
