The New Saipua

I was in Red Hook today to visit the NEW Saipua shop.

We've moved to 147 Van Dyke....a block and a half from the old shop....the new space is incredible....and I wish I could post a photo....but my camera battery died at the most inopportune time.

So...you'll have to go see the space in person, or check it out on Sarah's blog.

Instead you'll have to be satisfied with the antiquity I bought at Erie Basin while I was there.



Russell tells me its Etruscan.....brought up by divers from the Mediterranean.

It will look great as a sculpture in my garden!
