A 1940s crystal chandelier and a plaster bust are among the beautiful items for sale at Sophie Pretelat's Anges et Demons at the Foire aux Antiquaires currently underway at Place Saint Sulpice, Paris.
Mercury glass candlesticks and vases from the 19th-century in a display cabinet at Saint Sulpice.
Green glass and mercury glass boules, green pottery, wooden nutcrackers, a wooden ship model and a still life painting make up this composition at Anges et Demons.
A framed portrait, a group of old frames, a candlelabra and a rusty urn filled with seagrass are among the treasures on offer.
A collection of seashells, starfish and coral, a seasponge and the amusing touch of manmade pearls decorating one shell. Many of the decorative gifts from the sea are arranged in alabaster, stoneware or ironstone platters. More brocante photos to follow.
