New Treasures For This Week (Aug 31st 2009)

I was in Paris this last weekend and oh what a trip flitting between the flea markets and the local brocantes jumping on the train and dashing in a taxi all to catch the latest in the world of brocanting.... it was a wonderful experience saying c'est combien? c'est trop cher? Anyways just wanted to share some finds with you from that trip ...... Some of these will be available on my Etsy throughout this week so be sure to check in to MmeFedanesBrocante




Fabulous Ex VOTO French pendants .... These are beyond beautiful and so one of a kind ...all from the 1890 to 1910. A true treasure!!!!

Fabulous lot of medals including a Saint Therese bracelet with connector medals. This bracelet is amazing it has rose links which have reverse engravings.

Beautiful Vintage French Crucifix ..........This Charming Crucifix is Obviously Very Old ... I was told the early 1900's


Art Nouveau purse pendant showing photos of Saint Theresa: just fabulous!!!!!

Beautiful hand painted French silk jewelry box from the 1890. This box is big and has an amazing Jacquard print interior red in color. The box is in very good antique condition and is truly a treasure. The hand painted lady on the box is exquisite and the colors after all these years are yet vivid.
Prayer book locket from Lourdes with the original pencil. Very beautiful Art Nouveau design
