Allamakee Pottery Wood Fired Pottery Small Vase tole painted box with fantastic bright blue eyes

with fantastic bright blue eyes

with maybe a few tiny chips here and there

which looks like it wants to jump up into her lap

allowing one to stay on top of things in wonderfully analog style

Scarab jewelry became very popular during the Egyptian revival in the 19th century

Allamakee Pottery Wood Fired Pottery Small Vase tole painted box with fantastic bright blue eyesThis little vase reminds me of a tree trunk, and I really like the three little buttons near the lip. I believe it was made by Allamakee Pottery in New Albin, Iowa, operated by Hallie and Nate Evans, who established the studio in 2000 and make functional wood fired pottery. I think especially nice in the winter months with a few little branches of berries, or the first buds of spring. 5 7 8" tall; 1 3 8" across at opening and 3 3 4" across at base.
