I cant be happier about my this weekend thrifting haul.

                                                            



UGG EVER AUSTRALIA shoes

Scored with this find. Big time. These suede leather shoes scream quality and seem to be warn only few times. They have great artsy look and vibe, they go well with skirt, dress or jeans. Prices for those if new is over 100 EUR. On the Outlet store around 50 EUR, I paid 12 EUR 👏 Yaaay!

REFLEXAN LAUFKOMFORT SHOES

These sneakers do not have any ware...there is no dirt anywhere, they are brand new.

I cant find this brand homepage but what I read out from different online shops is that, it is German premium quality produce. I agree...I have not warn them yet but their look like a great quality. Stitching, material, that green round mark inside is anti-shock "something". Intriguing. I'd say brand new from shop would cost around 60EUR, I paid 12 EUR. Second time / Yaaaay! Hurraay!



ORIGINAL OIL PAINTING 

Beautiful impressionist oil painting. There is no artist name nor title. Only framer sticker is on the back. But who ever painted this " Beach Cottage" did a great job. I like the muted subtle colors and the frame suits it so well. Got this painting for 20EUR and as I take paintings often to be framed myself, I know that just framing this size painting costs around 60 EUR. The painting itself and the scene is simple, yet so charming. Its original oil, you can see the brush strokes. I love it. I am very happy indeed.



JOE BROWN'S TUNIC TOP 

I was attracted to the lovely colors and pattern of this top.
It is Viscose and felt good to touch. This has no ware and still feels and smells like never washed brand new fabric.

PRIMARK CARES TOP

I bought this top because I was imagining myself layering with it on the top of black long sleeved T shirt. I think it would look cool. Fabrics pattern gives me artsy vibes. It is 80%viscose and 20%polyamide. It is also brand new, not warn top. Seems that Primark tries to go for more sustainable route  with their produce.

RINEANNA POTTERY BUD VASE

I have found several Rineanna pots by now.

The potter was Max Halliday who sadly passed 2021.
But his pots live on.


Here is picture of him and condolence book





CRAFTED NECKLACE

This is very interesting and unique looking hand made necklace that I picked up. 

I think it has a marble at a center stone. No idea who made it but as it is craft, it is art for me. I have thoughts to get it silver plated.











LAQUERED WOOD INLAY PLAQUE

I was attracted to this peace as it seem hand made to me. When you touch the pattern you realize it is wood inlay because it feels relief. I love its folk pattern and look.





Conclusion: Very successful thrifting, very pleased! 😊

Epic charity shop pottery haul

-

 I have a "honeyhole" charity shop. All these ceramics is from one go. Why I titled this post "epic"? Majorly because of the lamp but all items are fab! The lamp I was drawn to it as if it was a big magnet there on the table. It's abstract artsy look is amazing, it's colors and it is tall and big and a statement peace and with very good price. Yes please, thank you! I had a quick look in the shop, it is inscribed and additional sticker remain.  McCluskey Pottery. Artist Sean McCluskey, Limavady in Northern Ireland. Have to tell you I had not heard about him before. Sadly when looking him up, he seem to have passed 13.02.2011. But his works live on their lives. Can use your imagination what travels this lamp has seen since its birth. Looking around internet there is not a lot of his work around and I would say from the things I've seen so far...this is the Crown Jewel of his work. I am so pleased of this find and I plan to enjoy it myself for a while unti

Anna Glodek

I was excied and happy to find this painting and even afford it. Here is what seller wrote about her: Here is a beautiful, eye-catching painting by Maryland artist Anna Glodek.  It is framed and although the sticker says 8" by 10", it is NOT it is actually bigger at 13" by 10" and the painting itself is larger than 8x10.  I believe this was painted in the early 2000's when she was showing in local galleries around Maryland.   These photos really do not do justice to the art. It has a wonderful, heavy texture.  The painting itself is in excellent condition with no damage. The The simple metal frame has a couple small scratches.   This is a real gem of a painting.

In addition I got idea from her to create my own initials monogram and use when

Thrifting highlight: Judy Greene's pottery

  So, I have been thrifting this weekend and here is the haul. Judy Greene pottery. Its from her Connemara range. Here is her website: https://judygreene.wixsite.com/galway Now, on closer inspection I am not actually sure that the plate is Judy's although the glazes and colors are so similar. The incised mark on the plate is different than on the mug. But they go well together and I like their rustic look a lot. So, plate still remains a bit of the mystery. Bracelet and necklace Lady in the charity shop said it is graphite bead set. I never heard of graphite before...but it has dark grey and metallic look to it.  Wikipedia says:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphite Sure looks like it. Also...what I know about natural stone jewelry is that natural stone feels cold to touch and this one surely feels cold. This jewelry set gives me modernist, futurist vibes. This metal candleholder brought smile to my face instantly. It is produced in Sweden by "Bengt and Lotta". I was so
