My mom's shoe rack. Those old shoe rack with pockets. She used it as a spinster and funny enough it is still quite good. I'm reluctant to throw it out.

A Torn Paper map of Nigeria with all the 36 states and "765" local govt.

Our ETA Iron that has refused to spoil. The bloody thing is older than me

36 states!!? Then that map isn't old. sad

There is a rectangular shiny metal (about 1.5mx1mx0.5m) with cover in my grandma house in the village. She said it was given to her mother when she (her mother) was still young. She was not even born then.


I am sure that thing will be around 200 years old. cos my grandma is around 100 years. And someone has been using it before it was given to her mother.
can you upload the pics?

A clay stool and chair in our family house,my Grandpa claims his great grandparents met that clay there and left it because it was useful for them, till today that thing is still freakishly strong and hand intact, it's gotta be at least 400years old.
