hip to be square

I trecked to the Brocki yesterday (Swiss salvation army) which always is calling to me like a Siren Song..Going there I missed Stella even more than usual. Usually we go together and have too much fun looking at Grandma shoes etc. I have way too many things to catch up on but I just "had" to go and I found some amazing things like Biba-esque golden ball lamps and these crazy things. What is the theme here? Squares. I always see the theme after I unpack shopping.
AMAZING cases for jewlery display in all colors of heavenly satin:

A perfect dirty lilac briefcase, it looks more grey in the photo but it's liliac:

A nutty ceramic tile with a far our mushroom and UFO, drawn by a gifted child probably:

A cat with playing cards and taunting mouse oil painting by another gifted child. This painting is amazing. The patterns, the theme, the colors:

That cat painting is insane! I love it ... You're lucky to be in Switzerland at the moment. I go three times a year for work and to see friends. I always have the most incredible and relaxing time. I spend a lot of time in Geneva but one of my best friends is from Lucerne. Bisous
