As you can see from the previous post,our Vergemoli project is coming along very well. Because it is a traditional stone cottage we would like to find some old pieces for the house. We have often passed what looks like a junk yard on the way to Forte dei Marmi. We finally stopped there one Sunday before we had lunch at our favourite restaurant, Il Fortino.
so much great stuff
There is all sorts of great stuff here. Wonderful old terracotta pots, marble sinks, old tiles, garden furniture and so much more. I thought we would be walking out with all manner of things.
I would love one of these on the side of the house
a few of these would look good through the garden
What about a few heads?
2 heads are better than 1
Or a garden seat?
this would look great at Vergemoli
Or some old tiles?
I'm sure we could find a place for these
Perhaps not the skull.
I'm sure somebody would love him
I really loved the old marble sinks. One of these would look great in the kitchen.

We’ll be needing a weather vane.
a dragon weathwer vane
But I really love the crests, there must be somewhere for one of those.
but which one?
We were studiously ignored by the man who was working there and we could find very few things with prices. We eventually found a price on the marble sink – 1,900 euro. We left.
