Lots of Silver & Brass from an old Coorparoo Home

Hi Everyone, Firstly thanks for all your kind comments on my last post. Lotte is much better and after a short trip to the hospital is back home. So now its on to the good stuff. We recently purchased a lot of vintage Brass and silver.

Antique Siam silver set, tray is old but not original to the set.
Cute elephant lids

Glorious original Art Nouveau Frame
Delightful butterflies
and Bee details.
Large deer and sleigh. This guy was used by the family we purchased him from at Christmas and formed the centrepiece of their Christmas table.
Note the cupid on the back.
Candle sticks
Tiny brass doll's table and chair set.
Ornate ginger Jar
Huge Siam silver Jardiniere. I hope you have all had a good week.

    Hi Katherine,

    Sorry Lotte was not well, and glad she is better...I didn't read your last post because I find it hard to look at the 'roadkill'..let alone wear it!!
    I have decided I like the unpolished silver look (or is that just my laziness? ha ha)
