Bargain: Vintage Loving Cups
I resisted temptation to buy an antique trophy on Sunday. I fell in love with the muted silver color and mysterious 1921 honor for “Tent Inspection.” However, I need another silver-hued vessel like a hole in the head and wasn’t ready to spend $80.

Wouldn’t they be fun filled with big peonies and chrysanthemums? You could design a whole party around it and make your guests wear ribbon awards and sashes.

how fun – love that idea
I saw these there too! But they are so expensive.
I noticed a few last month at the Alameda Flea Market and they were half the price.
