    Lamp work glass animals made in Japan. Some are occupied Japan. Years approx 1940-1970. This took me years. The rooster is my favorite piece, very substantial.

      That rooster on the bottom shelf is a stunner, exotic in all its glory. The whole set is beyond compare and to us here its like fodder for us to only hope, Magifico Mondo !~

      Thank you all for kind comments. Been wanting to find a place to share my collection with people who’d appreciate them. I hope I’ve inspired the collector in you!

      Hanako it is an extraordinary collection.
      I'm sure we would all love to see more detail; like even groups of 4 animals at a time.
      The animation and character in these is so good!

      Hanako, That glass rooster is really beautiful. <3

      Your vinyl caught my eye as well. Previously, my only association with "Die Die My Darling" was an old movie starring Tallulah Bankhead:

      Die! Die! My Darling! (1965)

      Racer4four, thank you for the idea. I may do that. I do have many pieces that I think have the most personality out of the group. I may make new posts to highlight them. I just found this site so I’m figuring out what people want to see.

      Keramikos, it’s a very small collection. Collecting vinyl isn’t my passion but I like the handful I do have. Wish I had something to play them on lol.

      Hanako, Oh dear, no turntable, huh? :-(

      You probably know that turntables are readily available, but turntables are only one component of a sound system. You could hook up a USB turntable to a home computer:
