the first a fairly common green glass variety had only its centre frog and no centrepiece.
The second was a harder to find stunning blue bowl....
which has a lovely shape to its base,
and stunning lady centrepiece.....but,
a whopping big chunk out of her base. BUGGER! You can't see this when she is standing in her frog but it is very annoying.
The last which again is a beautiful blue is complete with frog and centrepiece....Yey!
BUT it is the most common centrepiece, A BIG fish.....So three different estates, three similar items and three different stories to tell. I wonder what it will be next week?

Hi gorgeous Katherine...

How fascinating! I've not seen these before, they're so interesting!
ReplyDeleteHi Katherine, wow oh wow... I definitely adore the blue fish... But me too Katherine, what are they used for? I'm fascinated... Who would have thought you'd end up with three of them.
ReplyDeleteI understand totally about never knowing what will turn up next. My husband has been looking around for months (via E-bay mainly) for a cabinet to keep his turntable, amp and records on/in... It's been impossible really to find the right dimensions etc. and then yesterday, while visiting our local Vinnies (in Brookvale - it's excellent) he found the perfect fit... I think it's probably a bedside table but it's made from silk oak and it's just perfect. It needs a little tender love and care but it's got real character! Pruxxx
P.S. Thanks for your lovely comments appreciating Luke's shell monsters recently on my blog post... Px
My favourite would have to be the blue lady. Chunk missing or not - I think she is stunning.

The lovely blue lady missing a chunk or not would still me my choice.
