Cast Iron & Bell

Last week, hubby bought these little antiques from Sri Aman. 

They may be little, but they are very heavy and worth few hundreds each.

An cast iron and a bell.


I don't know what got into him but hubby always have interest in antiques, old sentimental stuff and vintage. Guess he couldn't resist buying them when he bumped into them.

Still, it amazed me to see, touch and feel these old stuff from the past.

    1. Keep as collection. For now, keep away from the kids. Worry they play and hurt themselves with them.
