Rosemary's Trophy

This a trophy from the 1920's. My grandmother, Rosemary, did not have much as a child. She loved school and learning new things. She was a woman ahead of her time. This is an academic trophy that she won as a senior in HS that also came with a scholarship to Indiana University. She was a smart girl, and made her parents very proud! I love this trophy, because it symbolizes a turning point in her life.

Edge of Mom's Bowl

How I love this bowl!  Believe it or not, this bowl is only about 5 inches around.  It is little.  Probably meant for holding mixed nuts on a bridge table from days gone by.  I remember my parents having a room full of friends down stairs, and all the kids played "dress up" up stairs!  We had a great time while the adults played bridge and laughed loudly.  The back ground is a grape/maroon color, but very hard to capture without a glare in a photo.  This painting is already sold, but I can capture your very favorite piece of sterling for you if you wish.  Contact me with questions.
