Ornamental Odyssey

An exploration into people, the past and their possessions.

Let me introduce you to a little French acrobat, Monsieur Moustache ... 


My uncle returned from the South of France with him, one summer, when I was a little girl. 

Initially, I found him a little scary and I didn't like him much. But over time I've grown to appreciate his stern expression and whimsical ways. How could you not love a grumpy man jumping about in retro swimwear?!
