auction madness in bruxelles

The good folks in Brussels are nutz.
That's why I love them.
Almost as chic as the French and
twice as nice to strangers.
(They make a mean steak too.)
Pierre Berge & Ass.
are serving up
an amazing mix of weirdness
again for their
"Shabby Chic 3"
auction on March 28th.
(I hate the name, 
something is definitely lost in translation.
I would have called it
"Pierre's Wunderkammer"
but hey, that's just me.)
If taxidermy freaks you out,
TURN BACK NOW!
This is just a brief selection of my favorites
from the the 
660 lots
of really bizarre stuff.
Enjoy!

ALSO:
Sorry for the 4 days of nothing.
I was in New Orleans 
for my Dad's 71st birthday celebration, 
and between family,
kids, and dinner reservations at 6:30,
I was too wiped to post.
Only having my iPad didn't help either,
posting from that on Blogger is
a real pain in da butt....
So sorry,
I promise hoppin' this week!

  5. Wow I would love a couple of the shabby chic/animal rescue ladies of Santa Monica to turn up at this one. Could you give us a list of your favorite auction houses so I can start a new obsession? Hope you had fun this weekend.
