Gore Dean Goodness

I am not working on Fridays, unfortunately, so I try and take the opportunity to do things that I usually would not have time for during the week. I hadn’t been by Gore Dean in a few months, so I popped in to see what was new. I received an e-mail from Deborah saying that they were getting some luxurious cashmere throws in, and since cashmere is my favourite fibre, I wanted to check them out. They weren’t in yet, but I did see a lot of other things that caught my eye!

I just love these wall-mounted candle-holders in the shape of a fist! Wouldn’t that be fun on a patio? More fabulous pillows! Three crowns and lots of shiny beads.

A collection of Italian intaglio pieces.

A 19th century English tole-ware foot bath.

I love this butter/cheese dish with the glass dome. A great place to store my beloved KerryGold! Gore Dean still has some of Mrs. John L. Strong’s stationery in stock. This image reminds me of the Cabinet of Natural Curiosities, and you can just see a photo from Laura Bush thanking Gore Dean for helping to decorate the White House in 2007. I love the side yard at Gore Dean and I am sure it looked amazing under the 21 inches of snow we had last month. I’ll bet these guys looked great blanketed with snow, too.

All in all, another great trip to Gore Dean.
