oh i dont see it like that - he cant spend the last of his years in a cage/kennel - these are his golden years - he deserves love and family -
Thanks for the info on the flower frogs Vicki, I'll make note of that. Well, we're off to Galveston in awhile so I'll 'see' you all again on Friday sometime. Hopefully I won't go overboard but I have to 'scratch the itch' and it's been awhile since I've been shopping.
Oh, Kathy, thank you for taking Bongo home! Folks seem to prefer the younger animals. We brought my 14 year old cat home 2 years ago. We now have 3 cats (2,14,16). The oldest one is black and apparently many folks will not adopt black cats either.
thanks Mary and hello Veronica as well
Welcome Veronica! Hello glass hounds.
Welcome to our group, Veronica. Yes, would love to see a picture of your Westmoreland Crucifix. I found one the other day too. It's really nice looking and then after I had it home and was washing the dirt off of it I notice a chip on the side. I am so sad. Here is mine. Mine will end up in my garden.
Everyone Please Welcome Veronica to our Glass Hound Group! She just found a Fabulous "Crucifix" Candlestick in milk, by Westmoreland in her local Charity shop!
Do share photo's when you can! I'm happy your here! :)
Lol Donna! :) and, WTG Angela! Turns out her Floral by Jeanette is a rare find, per Ms. Mauzey - and she is the best on the Dep. Glass! After writing so many books on the subject, I can't imagine to many others have that knowledge base!
I'd still like to be sure of that shape though. It seems odd for a "footed vase" It looks far more like an "Ivy Ball Vase" imho, of course. No accounting for what certain companies call certain items I guess?
And WTG Kathy! You did indeed find a treasure trove! Wow, for a fairly new collector you are doing fabulous!
Chris - Check those flower frogs out before ever purchasing - there are many repro's out there. So remember- If you don't see wear ( small scratches, straw marks, Tiny nicks and chips etc) it's probably a repro! Just a word to the wise!
And, as always Shirley - You are the master of super finds! Love the frogs! so cute!
BTW - I "cancelled" a sale that was far away - over an hour, and with traffic - a nightmare - ugg! ( many items that were supposed to be included were no longer, so Goodbye from me!) And we moved onto the next one - only 10 minutes from home - YEAH!
This condo is not "packed" but boy do they have beautiful, gorgeous things! ( and its CLEAN - thank you Lord) In fact I think we have at least one French BEBE Fashion doll, ca. 1860 - 1890. She is gorgeous! I will share some pics soon!
