P
is for
PHOENIX
You all know about my dragons, and last week I told you about my husband's owls.
This weekI want to show you a small collection belonging to my youngest son, who feels a particular affinity with the legendary phoenix.
Above is part of his collection - horse brasses, a fridge magnet, and a small plaque.
Here's a deep blue china thimble with a gold phoenix.
These are two old Chinese snuff bottles, both decorated with the Fenghuang (the Chinese form of the phoenix.)
Finally there are two pewter pendants. The one on the right shows the Egyptian phoenix.You'll find many more P posts through the ABC Wednesday page.
