OUT AND ABOUT

We were going stir crazy from being inside and having shopping withdrawals. Lewis had a delivery to make to the D.C. area, so we decided to venture out toward the mountains of Virginia. Our snow had almost melted, but D.C. had it a lot worst than we did. We down through the Shenandoah. We were amazed I felt like I was in New England rather than in Virginia there was still so much snow. We shopped on the way but found only a few neat things. There was this great pole floor light from the fifties,which Lewis says he's never seen one like it before.


Then we found a Virginia Metal Crafter's key nut bowl that we had never seen before, great style similar to something Fornasetti would have made.


One our most unusual finds was a silver plated Italian wine bottle opener shaped like a man, not the modern ones produced today.

It was marked sommelier and engraved made in italy on the interior.

Lewis found a wonderful etruscian style coffee table custom made by Minton Spidell. Minton Spidell is known for their high quality pieces and their custom finishes. This table however was used outdoors and gained a super great crackled almost rusty eggshell finish. Nature does the nicest aging something man can not come even close to accomplishing
