Hot or Cold ?


Don't you just love this piece of metal? It has varying hues and wear marks and that all-over worn look that antiques have. Okay, that's stretching it just a bit, but it really is a pretty piece. However it does lead me to wonder if there is a flooded room somewhere in someone's home. I mean clearly it was needed to regulate the flow of water from some pipe somewhere! Either inside at a sink or outside at a garden hose hook-up. So.....either there's a big flood, or this old piece was replaced with a new sleek one, and this one was meerly discarded haphazardly along the roadside. (how cruel) Yes, I found this along the side of the road one day and rescued it and added it to my wonderful basket of metal finds.
