Pottery Chatroom Board

Shelly - They seem to be our biggest collectors of FK or the opaque glass that "might" be FK; ya gotta love the japanese collectors. You know of the cobblestone mtn site for fk mugs, right? Yes, I see we're talking glass when this is the (ahem) pottery site. I used to specialize in american art pottery when I lived on the east coast. I sure miss all the beautiful stuff now. In WY there isn't much around! My sister bought quite a bit from me to keep it from going to shows, and she stuck it away in storage in CA. I found a piece of Hull butterfly at an estate sale awhile back (I think that's what it is - - I never liked Hull much -- but aside from some obscure Weller, not much turns up even at auctions. I did find a Van Briggle elephant about 9" long at an auction - a great piece - and I sold it on ebay; however his trunk snapped in shipping somehow and I now have him back. You can barely tell and I will probably repair it and maybe just keep him, though he was a pretty pricey figurine. Surprised there isn't more VB around here - I have come up with 3 pieces of Broadmoor Pottery (Denver, 1930s) and a little Coors but that's about it.
