In exactly the same spot as you were, right now. They have loads of flea markets here in Belgium. I look for old chefs knifes, gold smith material, old furniture and silverware. This month i proved to be very lucky, it has been very different, especially in the winter for some reason. Anyway, here a few pictures of my best finds this month.

Found this in a flea market, right over the border in France. I paid 120 euro, its 1.5 kg 95% silver.


These were found on several different flea markets, the drinking cup could be as old as 18th century, the little vase is from India, has different goddeses around it and the animals were used to lay cutlery on, for a chique dinner table. Oh and the other thing was used to collect money for, in a church.


Found these knifes together, the one with the black handle is french, around 1920, the other german, dont know how old. I sharpened them, and they are sharp as hell now! I paid 1 euro each.


These chairs were a cool find, but they need a lot of work. Dont know yet if i will resell like this, or let to repair first. That might prove costly. I paid 1 euro each.



These roman coins were sitting in a jar with a few copper nickles. Paid 4 euro for the lot.


And i am always looking on second hand websites for goldsmithing tools. They are highly sought after, and this week i hit a jackpot. I think around 5000 euro worth of exuipment, bought for 400 euro. Some material i keep myself for using, most i resell. No picture of the material yet but here is what i make


One day, someone might find this pair on a flea market, but, lets hope not ;-)
