All is quiet on this last morning of 2025, save for the chirping of one small shorebird. A moment of perfection, I’d say. Wishing you health, happiness, and joy in the small things for the New Year. . . . #happynewyear

If there was a more authentic phrase to express my gratitude, I would say it. Thank you all so very much for your business and unending kindness this season. This small enterprise of mine simply would not exist if it weren’t for you. My heart is full. ❤️ The shop will be closed for a couple weeks for a winter break. Take good care of yourselves and those you love. See you in the new year.😘 Wishing you abundance and joy, Bobbie

These exquisite “bottle” sculptures are as light as air, but the texture is irresistible. Of paper clay by acclaimed Italian artist Paula Paronetto. NOTE: The collection available in the shop is not white, but an enigmatic mossy lichen green. Quite rare to find in the States. DM me for more photos, if you like. If you need to find something very special for someone this year, give these some serious thought. 😉 1603 First Avenue at Pine, Seattle . . . #paolaparonetto

Wow! What an exquisite sculpture. Classic, yet the iron nails give it a contemporary edge. It is signed, but I can’t make it out. Whoever did this has the complete skillset. 😉 About 8x5 inches overall. Of terra cotta. Sourced in France. $495. 1603 First Avenue at Pine, Seattle

Oh. My. Word. I fell in love with her instantly. Who was she, that she was captured in portrait so tenderly? What was her story? She is from the 1700s, and her pearls and healthy glow tell me she was quite loved. Other than that, the story is yours to imagine. Although the painting and frame were married recently, the more than fabulous hand carved frame is also from the 1700s—perhaps very early 1800s. About 17 inches in either direction. For the photo, I have positioned it against the light to reveal where the linen canvas has loss. When hung on a wall or with paper backing, it would be difficult to see. However, restoration would not be much of a challenge, as the paint loss is all in her hair. DM me for details or price. 1603 First Avenue at Pine, Seattle . . . #frenchantiques #portrait #antiqueportrait #younggirl #jeunefille #rare

I absolutely adore these precious pear ornaments made of spun cotton, then tenderly painted. About 2 - 2.5 inches. Definitely heirloom quality. Created by @c.e.monetteart The pears are only available here, but you will find a world of wonder at her studio: @foguestudios in Georgetown, Seattle 1603 First Avenue at Pine, Seattle . . . #seattleartist #handmadeornaments #shopsmall #spuncotton

As I locked up the shop last night and stepped outside, this gleaming beauty appeared and waited at the red light. I wondered if they were on their way to a festive, sparkly gathering, complete with good friends in the best holiday spirit. “Probably,” I told myself. I love this town. Shop OPEN 12-5 on Sundays. See you there. 😉 1603 First Avenue at Pine, Seattle . . . #lookformagic #vintagecars #oldchevy #iloveseattle

What ARE these wonderful bits of creativity? Answer: They are Picasso-esque portraits painted upon the leather covers of 19th century French books. Not your average stocking stuffer. Come see! 1603 First Avenue at Pine, Seattle . . . #picasso #originalart
