Stationary and Antiques in Oxford...

Scriptum. 

Stationary, leather books and just gorgeous knick knacks galore...




















Antiques on High


This little shop is such a hidden gem, there was like 20 different antique dealers sharing this building. It was like shopping through different eras and tastes.. Instead of flooding you dear reader with mountains of pics I will show you the highlights. Particularly amazing was the huge bible I found and of course all the antique guns, knives and war medals!







This knife below is a Skein-Doo it is a traditional scottish knife worn in the sock.. The handle is made of stag horn and was made in the 1940's





The above bible was huge!
Just for you guys to understand it was 2, A4 pages big :o) 

The prize jewel of what I bought today was this edition of "Persuasion" by Jane Austen that was printed in 1909... Which I paid 4 pounds for.. And the cute little porcelain ring box was just darling to get. 





Goodnight dear readers.
