The wooden bowl, he bought it last year from Samar’s/Neil’s preschool auction night. It’s walnut, handcrafted by the’ teacher’s dad. The blue bottles, I dont remember where we got them but we have had them for 11 years now. We bought them in Boston , they travelled back to Singapore and then back. The blue ribbon thing is a porcelain baby shoe. Samar’s birth info is inscribed on it. It was given by his ped’s office. This is the first shelf.
A bit blurry
The elephants are from India. The little boy guard is also quite old and has travelled with us all the years. NK bought it in London, (I think). The 2 large figurines, I dont know. I dont like them much

He bought them and hid them from me. I had no idea until we were moving he had amass this huge collection
He wants everyone to know, these are made in Italy or England or Germany. No made in China crap
