Antique Leather Fire Buckets

Crushing on 

leather fire buckets.

Love the old tattered leather patinas,

the metal rivots,

and the 

wonderful painted details.

Do you collect 

antique fire pails?

Take a look at these

gorgeous beauties.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Collecting: Antique Quill Boxes

 

There are so many things to 

collect

and that's 

our favorite subject at

Blue Cardinal.

Porcupine quill boxes

are another one 

of those things.

You can see a small collection of them here on the coffee table
in this lovely home decorated by Phoebe Howard.

They are so uniquely 

natural and handmade. 

The warm tones

ranging from ivory to deep brown blacks

are beautiful.

Take a look at these beauties.

 

A gorgeous set of collectible antique boxes.

Do you collect any type of small boxes?

the year.
