Terrific pottery sculpture of unknown age and origin, but we assume American, mid-century vintage. Excellent, larger than life folk art terra cotta joined acorns sculpture. Very well rendered, this piece is detailed in a naturalistic fashion and appearing to be pit fired, based on the random blackening of some of the surface. An excellent accent piece in the primitive or Arts & Crafts inspired interior. Size/Condition: Measures approximately 7"x 7.25"x 3.5". Minor handling wea ...click for details

Knockout monumental Greek art glass vase, probably dating to sometime between the 1920s-40s. Handmade, this large amphora is heavily decorated with myriad acid cutback designs...from the chariots and their steadman, to the meandering lines, waves and other patterning, accented with understated enameling. The vase has the appearance of being from an architectural dig with nice surface texture variations, including the unusual production line that follows across from one applied handle to the othe ...click for details
