<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Barn Owl, post: 6491708, member: 4864&quot;]First day in Paris. Couldn&#039;t make it to any flea markets, but dropped by a few antique stores and came out with some treasures. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>35 euros for the huge Penca de Balangandan.</p><p><br /></p><p>12.50 euros for the pitcher (can&#039;t make out the mark on the bottom, but it looks very old).</p><p><br /></p><p>And 10 euros for the hamsa, which is my favorite find for today. Looks like it might have mine-cut diamonds or other stones. Sadly missing a few, but still love it. There&#039;s a diamond-shaped hallmark, but since I don&#039;t have my loupe, I can&#039;t make it out. I presume it&#039;s a French or Moroccan silver mark.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s funny. Back when I was studying abroad a few years ago, I would&#039;ve missed all this, but now that I know what to look for, I zoom right in on it.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]419535[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]419540[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]419541[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]419542[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]419543[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]419544[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]419545[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
