Treasures

What a variety of color, shape, pattern, object…this still life was totally unplanned and nearly unseen.

Likely Judi was simply clearing items off the counter and placed the Lover’s Knot Lace-edged hankie on the chair, then pulled the necklaces that hadn’t been selling and lined them up on her hand, turning around and setting it all down on the traditional pillow-ticking pillowcase on the antique chair behind the counter in the shop, Carnegie Antiques.

I saw it out of the corner of my eye, then went back around the shop looking for what I’d seen peripherally while doing something else.
