I am in love with the Art Nouveau aesthetic, if not the prices. Here are some gorgeous finds that are either of the period or inspired by it.

One of a kind you say?
One of my biggest pet peeves with online sellers is the overuse of "unique" and "one of a kind." Now if it's something that you made with your own two hands, then for good or for ill, it's likely one of a kind. If it is something mass produced, I don't care how old it is, there's another one somewhere.
This genius has been trying to sell this phone since at least last fall:
One of a kind, is it? Well let's see what a quick search of ebay using "pink rotary phone" yields...
And here's one from the selection on etsy:
Oh and Ruby Lane...
So yeah, I think I've proven my point craigslist seller. What's my point, you may ask? You're an idiot, that's my point.
