I really like these wall appliques. They remind me a lot of a sixties-seventies illustration aesthetic. So why not create a whole traffic jam? $9.74 at Kmart.
Thanks to Julie G. for this find!

This Week’s Rare Bit O’Swag:
Wade Scooter Santa Plate
Posted by Tracy under Decor , HolidayNo Comments
It’s Christmas in July! Seen only occasionally on eBay, this Wade China plate was made in the UK sometime in the 50s and is a rare find indeed!

Here’s another tempting Italian porcelain figurine but this one features a much smaller price tag than some at $150.00. It measures 6Wx11Hx11L.

This sculpture is entitled “Roman Holiday.” Let’s start off with the price. This has to be the single most expensive ScooterSwag item we’ve ever posted. This limited edition figurine is $1,980.00. And it’s on sale from $2,200. But this is definitely a pedigreed collectors piece from artist Giuseppe Armani. She measures an impressive 17″ tall and is handmade of porcelain and hand painted in Florence. And she is part of a limited edition run of 3000 pieces and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
Thanks to Julie G. for this unusual find!

Damion F. in the UK found this somewhat frightening guy on eBay and I think he’s amazing. It looks to be hand-carved. Maybe a souvenir brought back from an exotic trip long ago?

At only approximately 3″ wide and $33, this horse brass is pretty pricey but I suppose it may be one of the coolest ways to combine your four footed mounts with your two wheeled ones. According to the description:
“Horse brasses were used to adorn the harness horses, primarily in the UK, many would identify the route simply for decoration, royalty, different industries such as train or brewery.”

We’ve featured some Vespa Lamponi Lamps awhile back but now the Lambretta contingency is represented. Not sure on the price. These are limited edition so shoot them an e-mail:

Don’t worry. No Vespas were harmed during the making of this rocking horse. It’s all fiberglass and craft!
