Antique French Baby Rattles


French baby rattles, worn from too much fun, silver chains replaced by a ribbon.
Ringing in the New Year!

Photo: Rattles attached to the key to my kitchen cupboard.

Well, there's nothing *antique* about this comment, but when Bunny was born a good friend of my mother's gave her a little tiffany box- inside was a silver rattle. I'm sure that it's safe, tucked in a box somewhere, sitting with all the other impractical inventions we bought into (like the wooden highchair with rainbows and wings.)

Wow, they stand out, I would get them although my baby is now 8 years old, lol, she wouldn't need them but just to keep around for show n' tell.
