Epergne@E-pern

Mr.E-pern
Greetings.N3 hari ni is really a tongue twister.Epergne(E-Pern).So apa benda ni? well, to be honest i knew very little about this epergne thing when i purchased it some time back,heck! i didnt even know what it was called in the first place.I simply bought it koz it had a classic look to it plus i thought it would look good as an decorative item.Thats not advisible my friends.Never buy something u are not sure of.Thats a golden rule u observe if u are a dealer/runner(but i broke it!sigh).Anyway,last week i visited an old fren, who owns an antique shop in penang.He had 2 Epergnes for sale.It was priced at a few hundred dollars.I enquired."Ni kita panggil apa? The answer was sharp," hah, tu lah ,ramai taktau, ni lah E-pern, Ada beberapa jenis,yang pure silver, silver plated dan juga from gelas.Pure ignorance on my part but nevertheless jangan malu bertanya, bukan sekadar sesat jalan tapi akan tidak tahu something sampai bila bila pun jika kita terus malu bertanya.So apa kegunaan E-pern ni? well from the picture it is very obvious that its a  table centrepiece /decorative item.Boleh letak flowers .I own  a silver plated Made in England piece.Doesnt it look like a bunga terung? hehehehe.Tempat letak bunga yang macam trompet tu(ada 4),kita boleh cabut dan interchange.unik kan?
