Good Hunting at Brimfield
Well, its been a while since I posted, and I have missed you all.
I have been out at
About an hour outside of Boston, it's considered the mecca of the antique junky. Three times a year dealers from all over the world descend. Ralph, J Crew, Martha all have scouts out.
My life long friend Hudson (big cheese at Wisteria) and I went scouting. We have gone through more fields through the years than I can count. When Stefan and I lived in England, Hudson would come over on business and we would go out into the rainy country side and all over England chasing the perfect things. It was good to get back together again just like the old days.
The first day there we were trapped in a deluge, but the sun came out in the afternoon. After scarfing lobster rolls we soldiered on. I found a few goodies, like these malachite chargers. I was crazy for the turtle faucet, alas it won't work in our mid century. I hope he found a good home.
The art was particularly good, and there was a booth with antique french textiles that made me swoon. I will be posting on it soon.
If you have never experienced Brimfield, you gotta put it on your bucket list.
Until then, happy hunting!
