This week's theme: Put a bird on it ! (also as a celebration of Portlandia's new season)
I started thrifting religiously when I learned about California pottery; and being in California, the chances were that I'd eventually find some California pottery. The things that I bring home have greatly evolved but when I come across Howard Pierce I find it hard to resist. Above is a rooster and hen set that I found recently.
The holiday season has passed, but I could not pass on this enamel by AnneMarie Davidson.
This littly guy has a sweet disposition. It's my first piece by Pigeon Forge pottery.
I'm using this last piece as a trivet/ spoon rest. I find it hard to resist that rich blue hue. It is signed by the artist but I cannot make out the name.
Though this last piece has nothing to do with birds, I wanted to share something Scandi that I found recently. It was signed on the back but I didn't recognize the signature. I thought one of the letters was a B so I looked at Bjorn Wiinblad and Arne Bang. Well, on one of the websites I stumbled upon Danish pottery signatures and learned that the bowl is by Eigil Hinrichsen.
So that's it for my goodies. I'll be hopping around to take a look at your finds. Did you link up with Selena and Sophie?
