Now I use my lovely Crummels butterfly Limoges as a pill and vitamin carrier when needed. But when I was a child I used the tiny vessel to safely house the British pounds and other coins my father brought me from his travels. I remember taking it out of my sock drawer every so often and carefully opening the top to reveal the money. I can recall a fascination with the places the money and Limoges represented and more personally, I imagined my father and what he was doing in those places. Some things never change. I am still fascinated with objects from other countries and I am still wondering what my father was doing.
What object have you had for many years and how has its function changed in your life? Why do you still have it?
