UglyBeautiful = Dilemma



Sometimes a thing is both ugly and attractive at the same time.  Sometimes you simply do not know whether you love a thing or hate it.  
The strange feeling of contradiction settles on all of us from time to time.


Op shops, second hand stores, antique markets are often where these feelings of confusion mostly arise.  
Do you love this odd object enough to pay good money it, even though you do not really like it, and yet you can not stop thinking about it.  
I bet you can recall one of those moments right now.


What we have here is an UGLY BEAUTIFUL dilemma.
Case in point is this tea set based on sea mollusks, both odd and charming, with a personality all of its own.
