Antique Wirework Find

My Valentine to myself. Yesterday's find at an estate sale is so exciting. I love this piece of wirework and will have fun finding things to display in the baskets. Fruit for now. I used the portrait mode on my iPhone for this photo. Have a great weekend.

I see it with ball ornaments surrounded by greenery at Christmas time. Lovely.

Oh, what fun! Not often found, the very nice ones like you scored, but I do love art wire items just about best of all estate sale finds. The old ones seem inspired and are often unique like the one you found. So many possibilities with this one. You can go crazy collecting air plants (if you like those.)

Linda Sand -- I thought about Christmas Balls too. We shall see! The possibilities are endless.

sandy lawrence -- You are so right. You seldom see the good wire items at estate sales. I don't know a thing about air plants but this would be great for them, I'm sure. Thanks for the suggestion.
xo, Rosemary

I love wire work. I have a few very large garden wire work pieces that I've had powder coated in white, because they were so old I was afraid they would not survive long without some sort of protection. I just love them. Wire work is not easy to find and can be quite expensive. You've got a real find there, Rosemary.
