I am a firm believer in injecting little doses of happiness into as many daily rituals as possible

These great circa 1950s heavy brass Chinese koi-shaped locks are ideal for holding closed a Chinese chest

Royal Copenhagen Hand-painted Grethe Helland Hansen Porcelain Bell seal From top to bottom inThis pretty hand painted porcelain Royal Copenhagen bell was designed by Grethe Helland Hansen in the 1960s. It features a terrific irridescent blue glaze with purple and black accents, used to render an alternating design of two different flowers, one with petals open toward us, the other with the flower and stamen pointing downward. Really lovely, with a nice little ding! 3" tall x 3" diameter and in excellent condition.
