Primitive Tobacco Baskets

Primitive Tobacco Baskets

4e42d932b3fd738b450168d8f596ef6cI’m using the word primitive here however….  you could also use antique… vintage really wouldn’t fit the bill.    These round or square type baskets are very shallow, not quite flat – they were used for drying tobacco leaves or herbs in some cases (large herbs because of the large open areas and loose weave obviously to let plant material begin to dry immediately).

Used in today’s world in the decorating arena, they make very handsome wall displays, perhaps on a hearth or statement piece above furniture.   They range in prices all over the chart.   I come across these quite a lot in my estate sales.

People who enjoy basket collecting have been seeking these fiercely –  so grab them if you see one at an estate sale or garage sale.  You can find them in rural areas hanging on a nail forgotten in a barn.

As you can see from the photos below, in the decorating scheme they can be used in rustic settings or more traditional themes.

P. Buckley Moss

P. Buckley Moss

asa fire drill

I first came across P. Buckley Moss at one of my estate sales (when I owned Peachtree Estate Sales in ATL).  This was a home in N. Atlanta – the lady of the house was from Connecticut.  The house had an upper East Coast feel.  She collected P. Buckley Moss – and she had  A LOT of her prints and a few original pieces.   I spent a lot of time in the home preparing for the upcoming sale.  The family members didn’t want much of what was in the home – so the home had a very lived in feel – as if the occupants had gone to the grocery store and were coming back at any moment – even though she had been gone for almost two years.  I’ve seen P Buckley Moss art off and on — but never on this scale.  I became very fond of many of the pieces.  And found myself sitting and smiling as I went over the extensive collection.  They are very peaceful works of art.

You can read about the artist >HERE<.     

Art is such a personal journey —  it’s interesting what you find pleasing and what moves you.  — Kimy Stewart

Portmeirion – Botanic Garden

cbbe96a29a8eef2b29b93537c588dbd9Hi – My name is Kimy Stewart and I have a dish fetish.  I know…I know…. there could be worse things in life than a dish fetish.  So let’s just roll with it baby.  ::::::turning cartwheels:::::

One of my VERY favorite patterns is Portmeirion Botanic Garden.  Introduced in 1972 it’s a favorite of many.   The appeal of this patterns hits so many different levels of ‘like’ for me — let’s see.  They are colorful and interesting.  You’ll find insects and flowers all different from piece to piece.  A true British classic. They are whimsical and make me want to eat scones and crumpets immediately and talk like Queen Elizabeth all day.  They are the creation of Susan Williams-Ellis who used early 19th Century illustrations as inspiration for these delightful dishes.  She was born in Surrey England – a completely magical place I’m certain.

Now go make me some scones.
