A Maria Theresa-style chandelier glistening in the morning sun.
There were a couple of vendors with lovely hand-embroidered linens. I bought several cotton napkins embroidered with other people's monograms, but never mind, they were irresistible. I asked the seller how she kept them so clean and beautiful. "I cook them at the laundromat!" "You COOK them?" I asked. "Well, I set the washer at 90 degrees Centigrade (that's 195 degrees Fahrenheit). Don't be afraid of them!" she scolded. OK, so there's her secret--but try it at your own risk.
Pretty glassware.
A little Lenin memorabilia....
I was interested in this table but the top was quite damaged. Need some lessons in woodworking before tackling this project:
