Treasure Hunting in Belgium

You have heard the saying,

"One man's junk

is

another man's 

treasure."

Well...

Here are a few

treasures

I found this week :)

I found this with a friend at a TROC, (a type of thrift/consignment shop) in Belgium.  Can you guess what it is?

A salt cellar!

A win from the Auction!  A Pair of little Antique Staffordshire Pups.

Purchased from a German Gal emptying the China Cabinet of her 93 year old Grandmother in Berlin!  Can you imagine what these beautiful little wine glasses witnessed!
