Life in Bangkok

Sawadee Ka ( Hello) from Bangkok .

I have been away from blogging for a long time now

I've missed you and your comments ...

I think it is time to share again my new life .

So are you wondering what a former french antiques dealer in France ( Provence ) is up to ....

I guess I still have the antiques addiction but now my eyes are looking for Beauty in oriental antiques ...

antique chinese tiles in Ayutthaya

Now it is a lot about chinese antiques .... white and blue china.... antique Buddhas ....

I still love antiquing ....

I saw this piece in a dusty attic of a buddhist monastery

I wish the monks would have sold it to me ....( don't dream )

Actually , I found one in River city antiques mall but I will not tell you the price ....

It is also about old papers , old ephemera ...

And of course about Thaï paintings or paintings depicting Thaï life

After antiques , you know my second addiction or passion , call it as you want , is Home décor so it will be next chapter ...

Don't miss it
