In case you are wondering about that new banner on top,
I have joined this A to Z challenge for fun. I just want to see how it goes.
So today being the first day (and the first alphabet) it’s A and I start with Artifacts. (some say the spelling is Artefacts)
Had been to a friend’s house in January and I was impressed by her collections and the way she has maintained it.
She did mention to me about each item and from where they are. Trust me to remember all that.. . . . . . . .
All that I can say is that it is from all over the world.
I like these old wick lamps (above) They are of different sizes and shapes and they are well polished and preserved. Notice how the chimney also changes based on the size of the lamp.
That statue of St Francis is carved out of a single piece of wood and then painted.
The only thing from India is the Elephant.
I wonder if this comes under Artifact or Antique as they are used to play the latest CDs but I was fascinated by the valves in it. Reminded me of the old Valve Radios which we had, and how we had to wait for anything between 30 seconds to a minute for these valves to get hot so that the radio would be functional.
