    I am happy to share with you this Loetz Cobalt Papillon piece. Even though a rather large chunk is missing from the top, I could not resist buying it. I think it is very elegant and rich in color. The last picture shows two Crete Papillon pieces I have recently bought.

    The thrill of collecting never tires, does it? I am grateful to own many beautiful pieces, but there is always this sort of hunger for the next find. I have tried to refrain from searching for longer periods of time, but then there is this nagging fear of missing out on that one very desirable piece.

    Do I sound obsessive or does anyone else recognise this?

      Beautiful pieces and lovely together. The curves are so complementary.

      I think it's something many of us would recognise :)

      So glad someone liked this again as I saw it earlier. I love it so much and suffer as well. I'd probably take somebody down for this vase...30 years ago.
      Lucky lady to have this one. :)

      Thank you, Rick! I have been collecting all kinds of things all my life, but none of these collections have ever taken up as much of my time as this one. But it is also the most rewarding and I feel very lucky to be surrounded by these beautiful pieces.

      Beautiful Laura! I love silver overlay, especially with unique florals.

      I just read something posted by MALKEY about an artist who lead a wonderful life, achieved a Legion of Honor award, then died in poverty. If I don't stop this collecting disease, that'll be me....minus the Legion of Honor ;)
