I love the beading detail around the top of the vitrine and on the knob.
I have been reading J.K. Rowling these last few weeks, and I expect this is where my inspiration lays here, as my son walked in and exclaimed: "I love this, it's just like Hogwarts!" I do have a penchant for curiosities and unlikely objects, like these rusty plumbing elbows, which as a collection, look super sweet, or again these wooden fanions taking on an air of decorative balls. I remember asking the price of the pipes to the old man sitting in the corner his junk shop. He looked at me with a furrowed brow in worry and question, he said: "You can have those". It made me smile.
A few vintage books act as pedestal for a large beetle paperweight, while this shell turned into a trinket box and a couple of antlers found in the woods near my dad's set off a turn of the century mood.
