The Antique Lady

If you ask Bob and my kids,

they would tell you that I was the antique lady.

However the antique lady

that I am speaking of today is this beauty!

Although Bob and I deal in primitives,

 we also purchase many other items.

Bob knew this was a head vase but was not sure of the value.

These head vases range from $20.00 to $150.00 each

depending on condition and head.

When I saw this vase it immediately reminded me of my gramma H.

Living with antiques her whole life,

the only antique that she would purchase for herself

were these head vases.

She would buy celebrity heads like Marilyn Monroe,

and Mae West, and many other women and men heads.

Alas when she passed away,

all of her head vases were willed to my eldest female cousin.

Unfortunately, she did not care about these heads.

Instead of keeping them she sold them all,

and from the monies she received,

she spent buying Beanie Babies...
I hope my gramma did not roll in her grave...

Clearly she had no clue about antiques.

Such a shame.

I'm fighting a chest cold, so I am behind on reading my blogs.

I had this post in draft, so thought I would publish.

Blessing to all,

Janice
