When I was 16 year old a neighbour gave me this beautiful porcelain statue of an English lady as a birthday present. Although it was made in Taiwan and not a fine bone china, I was delighted to be given such a beautiful object. I was captivated by her sweet and serene face. Never had I felt such thrill of pleasure and from that moment on, it taught me to appreciate thing. The next item was a toothpick holder from Hungary; this petite item was given to me by a good friend, Amy. Both gave me endless moment of pleasure. To me it does not have to be costly in order to enjoy the beauty of things.
