  1. I think that these are pine needle baskets from the southeastern usa.
  2. https://gilbertandgeorgecentre.org/art-item/fates/
  3. thanks Kevin!
  4. beautiful painting!
  5. very interesting subject!
  6. This is one of their 'gingko leaf' pieces.
  7. thanks for this post! it helped me identify a pot i've had for a long time. there just wasn't room at the base for all the words on yours.
  8. Thanks enverybody. He had been sick for a number of years, so it was not a surprise. Kiva - añoranza! Esa palabra me tenía perplejo! I think a decent translation is 'sweet nostalgia'. posiblemente...
  9. great piece of repurposed rust! love it!
  10. This looks like a piece of pottery made on Awaji Island, Japan. The base is a little different, but i have seen some unusual bases on them too.
  11. This must have been taken in 1959. My sister and i shared the same birthday with him too! [i was born one year after her and 25 years after my dad].
  12. thanks Blammoammo!
  13. i think you're right. they really have mastered those crystal melts! https://www.etsy.com/shop/dock6potteryandtile/?etsrc=sdt&page=2#items
  14. thank you mp.kunst. i'll check them out.
  15. I think the framer did a nice job with this print. I used an old 1920s maxfield parrish-ish frame and a blue matte which brings out the same shade of blue in the print and the frame.
  16. i guess it's another kind of Canton enamel.
  17. So what kind of enamel would this be?
  18. thanks jscotto! i think it's a rare one too.
  19. these are really cool!
  20. great shape!
  21. That was a lot of work to remove the felt from the bottom of this and i don't think it revealed anything interesting. I should have left it w/ the felt on it.
  22. thanks dav. there is no wood in this. just ceramic.
  23. really?! wow. i had no idea. the red clay does look right. i'll look into that. thank you art.pottery.
  24. these are so great! i think i have one at the nursery...
  25. thank you jscotto! me too!
  26. thanks stuff! i hadn't seen that.
  27. i had a later one - probably around 68 - green with sissy bars and a sparkley purple seat!
  28. i brought this to the framers yesterday along with a nice 1920s Maxfield Parrish-style frame. I think it will look good.
  29. thank you kiva!
  30. who is the creator of the piece in the second photo? do you think it was really done in 1927? if so, then it would probably be a French surrealist, maybe?
  31. That is so exciting that they are moonworts! there are hundreds of species and they do go way back evolutionarily and many are endangered. Beautiful glass!
  32. thank you Dav and jscotto! yes, i think it is a sunflower and a cockerel!
  33. very interesting! it does remind me somewhat of works by Edouard Manet.
  34. Marianne Starck, i think you mean. i have a large charger she designed.
  35. oh! oh! oh! so good!
  36. really cool display and great photos!
  37. ever since i saw this post, i keep hearing the Inkspots in many different places. If i didn't care...!
  38. Thank you Lata!
  39. thank you MishMasher! there are some really interesting older sci-fi novels floating around as well.
  40. i think that the machine in the barn is polishing the rice.
  41. thank you apostata.
  42. This may be a Japanese style vase by a French company - Japonisme.
  43. thank you plein-air!
  44. I have his mama somewhere. I did a post on her quite a while back.
  45. The last photo shows all of the bead necklaces i've bought this week.
  46. Tipitina!! i really love his music!
  47. love it! Prof Longhair, the Wild Magnolias! i've seen many of these on the streets of N.O. or in clubs. some of the best music in the world!
  48. a really good resource for info regarding pre-columbian pieces is the facebook page called 'Pre-Columbian Addiction'. They see thousands of images and pieces and really know their stuff.
  49. The chiseling and polishing is seen on the fancier sonrientes. the applied / gouging is much more common throughout all of mesoamerica. The chapapote is common amongst this same pottery, but not on ...
  50. what a beauty!
