My latest treasure is this circa 1950s Hollywood Regency monkey obelisk I found at my favorite local consignment store for $85.00. At 26 inches tall, it makes quite a statement, and I am a sucker for anything with monkeys.
You have done it again. This piece is fabulous, and, I must confess, stirred in me the same feelings of envy I experienced when you shared your $35 monkey epergne. You have a true gift for spotting bargains. Congratulations on a fabulous new addition to your collection, and thank you for the inspiration to seek out some treasures of my own.
Beth, you are KILLING ME with these beautiful pieces you stumble upon! I am GREEN with envy over this one, as I love the obelisk AND the monkeys! Wish I were closer to you so I could rub you for LUCK....there might be a lottery jackpot in my future!!! Thank you, my dear, for sharing!
