who had an incredible collection of vintage dolls from around the world

whose credits included performing as a Copacabana girl in New York with the likes of Frank Sinatra

This charming little stoneware owl is one in a trio designed by Edvard Lindahl for Gustavsberg Sweden in the 1960s

and actually a fruit--in order to make chewing betel

Really a beautiful piece that would be great for storing jewelry

Green Enameled Chinese Porcelain Plate with Pewter Rim vintage wood toy who had an incredible collectionI've seen a fair number of these sorts of hand painted enameled porcelain plates with pewter rims and bottoms, but I think none I find as pretty as this green one. I just love the yellow design at the center (a dragon and a bird?) against that perfect green, and then the white patterning around the border detailed with gold and pinkish red. At 7 3 4" across, it's a nice size for serving small bites, or just hanging on the wall. Excellent vintage
