Finally! an antique mall.

I had heard rumors of this place: first from my skeezy hairdresser who had amazing vintage pieces in his salon, and then from my Chinese teacher's mom. Finally my pal Molly took me to check it out: Treasure Hunt, apparently Taipei's biggest antique mall. I was in heaven. Here's some of the fun stuff I found:

Yes, this is a real horse head. ick.



The ultimate find. Only $2,000!

Great post: what does "skeezy" mean?

Skeezy means 'icky' and yes I bought an old wooden bowl, that's it. I'll go back for more soon I'm sure...

I'd probably greatly regret it if I bought it - but that horse head is astounding. Okay - we'll have to come back for another trip!!
