About a month ago I went home to New Orleans and browsed the Neal Auction house with my dad and fiance. Inspired by the Victorian House tour this weekend, I thought I would share a few of my favorite pieces (the auction is already over by the way). For the record, Crescent City Auction usually has better prices.

This was my favorite thing of the day, but at an estimated price of over $1000 - it was way out of my price range.
There are a lot of cool things in auction galleries in New Orleans. The first problem is affording the stuff, the second problem is getting it to California!
