Antique Fair Update







The Antique Fair in the weekend was very good. Well done to everyone involved. There was a good range of items and prices and it was good to see established shops from down the line being represented, as well as the very good Auckland shops such as Victorian Gilt.
I spent under $10 (my recession budget) on these Victorian photographs which will make it to my 'Lost Relative' wall (once we find the right colour grey for the hallway).

The one of the twin girls is lovely as you don't see anyone smile in these studio shots and there is a nice relaxed quality to it which is unusual.

The other one is much more traditional in style but I love how she looks like she is trapped behind a turnstyle - maybe that is just me.
