Silvered Bottle Give Away!


Paula and Jennifer of the blog Lulu's Designs and the
 Etsy shop Southern Shop Girl
  are offering a Give Away to 52 FLEA readers!

 They are going to give away to two lucky winners
 a mercury type...silvered bottle!

Paula and Jennifer found these bottles at 
Round Top in Texas and purchased them for their shop
 from John Norton of Industrial Age Antiques.



These silvered bottles, looking much like mercury glass, are from the 1920's and came out of a now defunct textile mill in the south.
Each one is different...some very shiny and silvery and some with darker and more mottled pewtery tones.



I bought my own silvered bottle
the August before last from John
 at the Madison Bouckville Antique Show in New York


  The above photo of these wonderful silvery bottles was taken
 at Renninger's Extravaganza in Florida a few weeks ago.

This silvered bottle is one of several that is for sale at
  Paula and Jennifer's brand new

These two lovely ladies are a very talented mother/daughter team who have recently opened up their shop
 and are filling it with their vintage finds and creative projects.

Jennifer is a designer and Paula is a retired music teacher who has bought and sold antiques for years.

Isn't it so sweet of these two gals to offer a Give Away to
you

 my friends here at 52 Flea?
