I know those 3 "domes" on the armoire in Karen Weir-Jimerson's home are not storage jars, but what are they? I got one from a friend who was going to throw it out but I thought it had purpose. Have taken it to a couple of antique stores and no one knows what it is. Mine is the same pale green and measures 14 inches in diameter. Any help would be appreciated. mc

You have a great cloche...cloches (French for bell...as in Bell Jar, Sylvia Plath's book and also the name of a hat syle of the 1930s). in color are very rare as they were just ordinary garden accessories. The only one I have found that is not a repro (yes, they make repros of the cloche, also) is the one I bought for too much money ($15..too much for a dealer!) at a flea market because it was French and in the reverse swirl pattern which I am addicted to...I treasure it. Take good care of yours...you will most likely never find another one like it.
