No, it’s not a set of vintage ceramics. Nor is it a collection of bud vases from the early phase of modern potter Jonathan Adler’s career. These thoroughly contemporary-looking vessels are, in fact, 19th century sake bottles. Precious, right? You bet: These antiques will set you back more than a few dinners at Nobu, although they have recently been reduced from $2,600 to $1,690 in a sale running through June 15 at Europa.

One of the most venerated antiques galleries on the posh strip of Lillie Avenue in the Santa Barbara suburb of Summerland, Europa is currently offering a 35% discount on all of its inventory. Items include Continental furniture, religious icons, tribal artifacts and folk art. They can be viewed at the shop or online at 1st dibs. 2345 Lillie Ave., Summerland; (805) 969-4989.
