had a great experience on one of my fleamarket strolls last Saturday. the story
however begins around last Easter...
while browsing through the great-glass site i spotted a little vase in their
unknown Austro-Bohemian section bearing an FWK label. to avoid the impression
i was knowledgeable in any way - i had come across this label two days ago on
designhandlung.de.
Franz
Welz
Klostergrab.
after an initial thought of "why contacting people you don't know.." I decided
"why NOT contacting people you don't know..."
so I let them know about my find, gave them the link to it, got a nice reply and
thought "so much for it!".
I had further looks at the vase from time to time and began to like it more and more.
such vivid colours!
last weekend however i made an excellent find: a lidded box with exactly the same
decoration! assuming there are not too many of these around - what a coincidence!
i like to think (a tiny superstitious bit) it was a quantum of karma.
here's a picture of it:
