There's an assortment of antique French gummed labels and perfume labels, and new vellum pieces from the 1600s-1800s will be added soon - enjoy!

I'm sorry it's been so long.
Stress and sadness have been the constant companions, but today I took a break to fill the dusty shelves.
Beautiful vellum from the 1600s and 1700s on Etsy.
Some lovely old paper documents too.
A few new treasures in the blog shop as well, including a precious old calcaire.
I hope you are well, and that you find some treasures to call your own.
We are overdue for a giveaway as well, so please check back soon.

Love letters to you, from the brocante.
I'm toying with a new shop format ... much as I love Etsy, listings are much easier on Big Cartel, so I'm going to try it out for a bit and see if it's a good fit for a tiny business.
There's a Shop link over there, on the right.
Thoughts?
