Bathed in blue light!

This house is filled with nick-nacks, and has always been so. Confession time. I am just as big a collector of stuff as my dear mother. The little brass antelope was my first foray into collection. I bought it with my pocket money at Pompeii when I was eight. The coffee cups are something a bit more recent. The smaller of the two is the only one left now. The pattern is Monet's Waterlilies. The larger one is part of the Illy Art Collection from 2009. I am no artist, I really do not have the co-ordination for drawing and painting, but I studied History of Art at A Level, inspired by a life long passion for beautiful things.
