Turkey Trip 2012 -- the things post.

 
Some of my favorite things we found in Turkey this trip... 

 A fine pile of treasures that will come by container in about two months -- pots, old bread boards, dough bowls and old rusty iron...
 New Suzani pillows done on vintage silk - we have 18 of these in stock -- gorgeous!
 Unusual old iron window grates with moons...  might have to have one of these for myself!
 Clay chimneys - doesn't he look like a very alert owl?
Measuring vintage kilims to cut into pillows -- hundreds will be on the container!
 Dagar- or open mouth - pots from Konya - make great planters.
Potential fencing for my own house -- each panel would be separated by a stucco post -- for the front at 7th Street...

New lanterns we will be importing from Turkey - due to arrive with our container load of old Mediterranean pots in the store in about 10 weeks.  Cannot wait as these may be the perfect thing for the powder room re-do chez nous...
