3 more days til Christmas: So we encourage you to stop in and find the treasure you’ve been searching for. Our sampling today includes coffee items, collectible ashtrays and character glasses, art prints, and more.
COFFEE GRINDERS & TINS
Consider these items for the coffee lover/collector on your list (plus the beautiful coffee grinders in the featured image)
Collectible Ashtrays (& smoking memorabilia)
Although smoking is much less desirable now, there are many collectors of smoking memorabilia. We have a nice selection of ashtrays that might be perfect for someone on your list who will appreciate your thoughtfulness.
Whether you smoke or not, vintage ashtrays are appealing collectibles. Their small size makes them easy to acquire and display in large numbers without taking up too much space. Snapshots of their culture, ashtrays were made during some of the most creative eras in history, so if you’re a fan of the Victorian, Arts and Crafts, or counterculture era, you’re sure to find one that fits your taste and aesthetic.
No longer seen as mere utilitarian pieces with the sole purpose of holding odious cigarette butts, ashtrays have become rightly appreciated as decorative art.
Throughout our store, you’ll find amazing art prints and some original artwork, covering nearly every topic from beautiful birds and animals to vintage art, some framed. Stop in and browse.
Collectible Character Glasses and more
We all remember getting collectible glasses that once held jelly or came in boxes of detergent or we received when purchasing gas for our cars. We have a wonderful selection available.
Royal Tara Hunt Scene China, Jack-in-the-Box, and Ceramic Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs
These last 3 items are to tickle your fancy and maybe be the perfect treasure for that special person on your list.
So bundle up and hurry in. We have some wonderful ideas for you. Tomorrow we’ll have another gift-giving sampler for you to consider! You know we’re here and we’re watchin’ for ya – ready to help you discover our treasures.
