Boho folksy vibes, Sean Lawlor mirror, car boot sale

-


 This haul on the photo is from first car boot sale I visited this year. Let the season begin! In fact me and my friend are planning to go and sell our stuff in car boot sale in the beginning of May. It would be first for me. But back to the haul


Small Rooster plate

Someone must have bought it back in a day from Portugal as a suvenire. It is signed and written at the back Lagoa, Algarve, Portugal 2001 and signed T Rodriguez

I love the rooster. Gives me boho folksy vibes. 

Could it be from this pottery?

Ill hang on to it for a while and then resell.





                                                                    

Clear Crystal jewelry set

Lovely set of clear crystal faceted beads with 925 silver. Like that it is in original box and I liked the lady who sold this. They are so delicate, yet in certain light they give a sparkle.















Ceramic and glass bead bracelets

Both are charming. I love the art glass beads a lot. Sadly that bracelet is slightly big for me, so I most likely resell this bracelet soon.












Sean Lawlor ceramic mirror

Sean Lawlor is potter in Northern Ireland, Belfast.
I could not find info about his studio. He seem to give pottery courses in Belfast so must have kiln in there. But the mirror is beautiful and done with great craftmanship. Super please with this find, mirror landed in my bathroom and stays there until re decorating :) 

Was a great Sunday morning out and great treasures.

Charity shop haul

  Here you see a picture of charity shop finds from my last hunting. It is a good representation of my taste. And I can't believe that I found all these from one shop.  Framed print.  I have no clue who the artist is. It is signed but I cant read out the name. I don't know...it appealed to me. I find it quirky and cool. Its large, so it makes a statement in the room.  The vase with flowers. Pottery, pottery, ceramics. My current obsession. I am so attracted to ceramic. Texture, glazes and a fact that it is handmade. The vase with flowers is by Suzanne May , Irish Dublin based ceramic artist. About her   Her workmanship quality equals with another great Irish potters like Louis Mulcahy and Colm DeRis. Although I love it, I listed it at my Ebay Shop as I collect money to buy myself a home.   Bowl   Bowl is not signed but I liked it rustic rough look and it gives me artsy vibes. I've been using it and find it good size for soup and I also had grapes served from there. Pitche

 Houston Llew from charity shop Couple of weeks ago I went treasure hunting to charity shops on weekend as I often do. On the table there I noticed a book shaped object with attractive Tango dancers. I lifted it, it felt heavy and looking at it it seemed like decorative peace. It had nice quotes on each side. When looking it backside it said "glass on copper" among other information. Yes, please! As I love anything craft or art related I grabbed it fast. At home I had a closer look and Googled. I love when this happens...that the art world unfolds for you with something new that you did not know existed before. All because of a find from charity shop.  Here is link to his website: https://www.houstonllew.com/  Isn't these fabulous? Houston Llew is so talented and he deserves success. I have listed this Spiritle in my Ebay shop with reasonable price ( profit goes to my "buying my own home" fund). It has a lot of viewers and watchers and yesterday I got first bid

Galway Potters Market 2023

 Galway Potters Market. It is usually held one summer weekend next to Spanish Arch in Galway.They are doing it annually since 2011. I've been trying to go each year I think since 2018.  Insta Galway Potters Market This year I rallied my friend to tag along. I think she liked it, at least I saw her smiling when looking at all the ceramics. Maybe I will convert her? In previous years I've always bought a Dee Quinn's piece. I have small collection already. Unfortunately she was not there this year. I will make a different blog post about her and the pieces I own. I recognized artists from previous years and I think 2 to 3 new artists I have not seen before. Of course I had to buy something.  I ended up buying Turnstone ceramics Robin and Clare Butler ceramics earrings. I had another favorite but it was out of my budget range. I have a very expensive taste.  After the indulging ourselves in ceramics we headed to have a stroll by the river. It is a nice walk across different
