When I was in my mid-30's, I worked part-time at an antiques mall. The best part of the gig -- being one of the first to spot (and buy) a great deal before anyone else had the chance.
Ceramic dog and cat
I also appreciated any featuring the familiar gold Enesco label, a company founded in 1958, specializing in imported giftware. The dog in the above photograph was one such find. It stands about 7 inches tall and is one of my largest and most treasured pieces.

The glass art work makes a fine specialty to collect. Very interesting post.
YOU are so darn talented, Nancy!!!! What a lovely photo "re-created"...:)JP
wow, that would be a pretty large figurine - nicely shown!
I used to be a collector as well... then I got tired of dusting so I quit. Love your photos... you always do such a great job of manipulating photos.

Nancy, you have that lovely fellow displayed so nicely! When I 'grow up' and have time, I want to do more of browing and searching in antique stores because I really love doing it~ I guess it's something to look forward to, yes?

Nancy your photo is just beautiful and the subject matter is priceless. I love little dog statuettes and the way you photographed them they look almost real. Really special...

I love your "aged" photo, Nancy! I really like those old jugs...I bought a "vase-type" one at an antique mall recently. It has a flat back, which I found interesting.
What a wonderful collection Nancy. I love the dog on the right. As always, your work is just beautiful!
Have a fantastic weekend!
I feel that sepia color photos make me nostalgic. Your photos are very fantastic.
Oh my goodness... I would be in so much trouble working at an antiques mall! I would spend my entire paycheck! lol Great little finds here and beautiful photos! The textures work perfectly with each piece. Love it! :)
Very nice Nancy I love old figurines myself. B
Coming in from Studio JRU...I am an explorer of antique/junk stores and yard sales always looking for the things I collect...love you photo work...
