Of Religious Icons, Antiques, and Some Woodworks

One of my aunts has a weakness for them...


See those lamps above? Those are real working lamps made of glass that sadly, we do not use anymore these days (understandable, I mean who would want to use them when the electricity is just a switch away, and in case of brownouts - there are rechargeable lamps). But they must have been used as bedside lamps before... Very romantic.

That little table above used to be a sewing machine (which probably did not work anymore). Instead of throwing it away, my Aunt kept the wrought iron stand and transformed it into a coffee table (changed the top with glass). Very ingenious...

Chair made of wood...

More furniture made of wood...
