Trinkets. Household items in photographs and memoirs of the late XIX - early XX century
69.99 €
A copouche, pliers for removing soot from a candle, a trena henchman, a traveling sandbox, a comb brush, a hat broom... A hundred years ago, these items did not seem outlandish. Now they could well become exhibits of the "museum of rarities". And while such a museum has not been created, we offer our readers this album about household items that have fallen out of use. It is not excluded that readers will find in it "unidentified family treasures". 3rd edition, revised and supplemented. A Kunstkammer of Fine Things, a collection of objects that seem delightfully useless to us, but once had meaning and were in widespread use. An era of gallant cavaliers and beautiful ladies in the little details and particulars that best characterize bygone eras. History in its everyday things: optional, but so charming.
