Do you know what a ceramic wall pocket is?
And would you know what to do with a chafing dish?
Answers to all these burning questions can be answered by taking a trip to the Richmond Hospital/Healthcare Auxiliary’s Thrift Shop in Steveston.
The Chatham Street store’s weekly finds from the donation bag rarely disappoint and this week is no exception.
You might not know it as a “ceramic wall pocket,” but you’ve likely seen them hanging on the walls of your grandparents’ homes back in the day.
Unlikely though that one of them was paying homage to a toilet. Yes, look closer at the collection in the photo.
Also new this week are vintage illuminated Halloween “dudes” ($7, $15 and $25, smallest to largest) and some commercial grade chafing dishes ($35 each) for all your party-hosting needs.
And if you fancy a sturdy vacuum cleaner, the store has a Miele 5000, at $150.
