Collectibles

Collectibles includes unique and unusual items from all over the world. Rita had a passion for finding interesting things to add to her collection. A few examples include: Tiger hats for toddlers and shoes for women's bound feet from China, Bedouin garments from the Old City in Jerusalem, and ex-votive figures (milagros) from Italy and Greece.
