french enamelware


 When I bought some enamel coffee pots at a brocante recently, the man said to me "I don't understand you women, what is it you all love about these old chipped enamel pots?!"  "But they are beautiful" I replied.  Baffled, he shrugged his shoulders.  Afterwards I thought that sometimes it is hard to explain the attraction of an object.  

Enamel ware has always been popular, We like it's chippy look, we like its true colours,  it's simple country appeal.  C'est juste joli!
