It's said that a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. This time there was only one bird in that fabled bush, and it wound up in someone else's hand.
I saw another beautiful bird on eBay. This one was by the 20th century California-by-way-of-Texas ceramist David Stewart. I was familiar with his slip-cast Lion's Valley line, but I wasn't familiar with his studio pottery until I found this piece. Research has turned up a wealth of information about him that I will share soon.

That bird is right up my alley. Another one will come along soon. Keep swooning!
ReplyDeleteIt's just the right mix of rustic and sweet!
DeleteOMG, Carmel quite literally, took the words right out of my mouth!
ReplyDeleteI was going to say exactly that. That little birdie is "right up my alley"
Great minds and all that (ha!)
It's beautiful.
I'm not surprised that you and Carmel like his work too. We three often think alike. :)
DeleteI really like the colors (that turquoise) and the pottery texture! What a wonderful piece.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it gorgeous? Another thing for me to track to the ends of the earth!
DeleteJust three words- I LOVE IT!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's a little gem, isn't it?
