I have no idea what is going on with WordPress; I have had more problems uploading videos and pictures for this post than any other post ever in all my years writing this blog.

Today I determined: basta! enough! I am going to post what I have and move on.

In Denver, Colorado exists this most unusual shop filled with middle and far eastern treasures and some American Indian objects as well. I consigned my 19th century Korean medicine chest to Sarkisians recently as I was cleaning out my son’s childhood home and was compelled to write something about this shop on my blog. It is just such an anomaly!

Above is the picture of the fascinating man who opened the shop in Denver in the late 19th century. I’ve lived in Denver for decades of my life and I can promise you I would never have thought there was a market for such exotic things in this city, but he had a different point of view!
