Did some macro shooting today. This is a little antique glass hat that came from my grandmother's house. I think the pattern is called "buttons and bows"- but don't quote me on that!
Oooo, this is lovely! What a treasure you have from your Grandmother's house, and you captured it beautifully. I collect both antique and contemporary glass. I'm drawn to the way he light plays on it as you show here in your pretty photo.
@eudora Thank you Diane! @grammyn Thank you Katy! This macro lens was a gift and I'm really enjoying it! @janetb Thank you Janet! Is this the Buttons and Bows pattern? I know it has a specific name but I don't remember if that's it.
@olivetreeann It looks like the Buttons and Bows pattern to me (which I've also heard referred to as Daisy and Button), but I'm no expert. I love the pretty yellow...my favorite color. It's beautiful, Ann.
@nicolecampbell Thanks Nicole- no, I'm not sure what it held, if anything. I think it's purely decorative. My grandmother used to have a bay window full of cut glass- I've always wished I could have one- but it would be way too expensive to change out the window in our living room. But I do have glass in the window at least and that's where this little fellow is.
