The young lady in marble

She must be a least 120 years old, the beautiful young lady in the living room. From her vantage point in someone's house, she quietly saw the world change, and people around her grow up and grow old, then pass away into memory. 

Time has let some traces on her too; a dent here and there, but overall it has been kind to her. And now she lives with me, watching how I live my life, and change. Until I'll be gone too, and she'll go on to grace someone else's life. Always tranquil, serene, and eternally beautiful.

The cabinet of little birds.

The golden rays of the autumn sun invaded the old house like a search light, revealing the objects that hid in the dark, making them look like secret lovers in a park, surprised in their exchange of illicit kisses.

It was the time of the day when the little stone birds on the antique cabinet seemed to come alive, filling for a brief moment the silent room with their merry chirping. 

Then the light moved on, and they fell silent, turning back to stone, waiting for the return of the sun's golden beams to awaken them again from their deep slumber.

The arrival of a Schuco Mercedes Micro Racer.

Hi everyone, I hope you're doing well!

This week I was thrilled by the arrival of a beautiful miniature clockwork race car; a Schuco Mercedes Micro Racer, 'red seven'.

Since the little car had a special sentimental meaning to the seller, I promised her to take some pictures of it in the garage of one of my dolls houses. So here it is, posing in front of one of the Triangs, showing it at the entrance of the garage (image 1 + 2) and in front of the house's porch.

Finally, the last picture shows it on display, together with other similar race cars, on a shelf in my living room. I hope you like the photo's. If so, leave a like and a comment, and see you next time. Thank you!!

I Am Your Shadow.

 

 

 

"For she visited you in dreams

Her pale moon face shining bright

And chased away your fears

In the deepest of the night."

A Lundby lamp sparkles back to life.

 

Hello everybody, I hope you're well! 

This little vintage Lundby lamp was kept in storage for a long time, because I couldn't make it work anymore.

So yesterday I decided to bring it to someone who knows a lot about both miniatures and electricity, and he repaired it for me! So here it is, sparkling like a jewel in the magical half light of my living room!

Now I think of it, I guess it's a bit symbolic for me too, after spending so much time without publishing anything here, finally 'the lights' go back on again..

 

 Wish you a great week, and see you soon!
