Last Sunday, after a tough exam the day before, I decided to head over to Amcorp Mall’s flea market. ST had been bugging me to go there for months and I thought, since I needed some distraction, I agreed to his suggestion this time round.
I complained to him before that I found the so called “flea market” at The Curve (if it is actually categorized as flea market at all) to be more like a day time “night market”. And he told me that I should check out the one in Amcorp Mall.
And true to his words, I found a lot of the “really” old stuffs being displayed there by mostly passionate and enthusiastic collectors. You can find items ranging from antiques, records, collectibles, arts and crafts, household products, homemade food, toys to second hand items.
And wow, what a great time I had, though it was a little too noisy to my liking. Maybe it’s because of the fasting month, they had stages and people singing and shouting over the microphone, later in the afternoon, performing some stage show or something.

Anyway, I took some pictures, those stuffs that attracts my interest and attention and I would like to share it with you here.
All sorts of old looking stuffs, though I am not sure if they are really old. See, they even have horse shoes on sale. These are real ones, ok! Can’t see? Here’s another clearer picture.
See the axe on the right? That was used to chop off human heads before. When I heard that, I almost fainted! And it is REAL heavy, I tell ya! If not properly handled, it can just drop down and chop off your feet.
Eeerm... knowing how clumsy I am, I almost did! Don’t say I didn’t warn you!

I love bells, and these are OLD bells, with really intricate design as handle, really nice…!!!
And this...! My nephew, little Jet will love these…………!!!
Amongst the flea market, there is a tiny little shop that sells all the imported items for kitchen and study use, brought in from Europe. Oh how I love all the things inside. The shop is called Brunelleschi, operated by a Malay lady.
I would love to have this kettle clock on my kitchen wall..! It's so unique and cool..!
This is nice too!
And this....!!! I want them all....!
Love this little cabinet
And I want this too..!
Stamps, old old stamps from all over the world..!!!
Not sure if these are old, but they certainly look old from far..
These are old, you can be sure...
I am not sure what they are, but they look impressive. Here’s another larger picture.
There were plenty more stuffs which I would love to highlight here, but I wasn’t allowed to take pictures. Stuffs such as old intricate tea spoons (that looks like it was used by the people living in the Victorian era, Elizabeth era, etc), lovely fridge magnets, etc, etc..
