FOR SALE $50: This is a rare Stölzle posey tray set, designed to go around a centrepiece and display flowers. 🌺 It’s East European and early 20th century in origin, and very much a product of the Art Deco era. Such a shame it has damage! It is the only complete set of posey trays I know of.

FOR SALE $50: another real antique; this is a Fenton Celeste stretch glass trumpet vase. Stretch glass (not to be confused with swung glass!) is a very interesting technique that causes crackling lines in the iridescence of the surface.
