I can't believe I found another Rosenthal Bitossi piece. Wandering around the GW and was looking at a piece on the shelf above, nothing fantastic. I glanced down and pounced!!!! She is about 20 inches tall, pretty darn big.
I am thrilled beyond words with this piece although the hubby doesn't seem to share the enthusiasm. Well for 10 bucks, I think he can deal with it ; ))
Thank you nldionne, V, Tony and JayHow
Five bucks is usually my hard limit on any piece. Didn't blink at ten
Thank you Mary, eye4 and Inky!
Thank you so much for the loves!
Wonderful piece! Love the colors, form, and finish! : )
I use the 5 buck limit as well but sometimes you have to break the rules for something special !
Hi Mike...I try not to break it too often! I did buy myself a nice entrance table for 45 bucks! About fainted. Not that this was not a super cheap price but that I was spending it a thrift. My hubby laughed at me and told me that if it was a bottle of wine I'd think it was cheap!
Hi Amber. The vase is Bitossi, I think, but I suspect the ash tray is Fratelli Fanciullacci and from the same series of gilded/sgraffitti as Stillwater's new post.
I'm awaiting a reply to an email sent this morning to my mate Thelma who has THE book "Alla Moda".
I saw that and thought the same! Your package is going in the mail tomorrow morning!
Its gorgeous AR,
I love its shape and colors.
A fantastic bargain!!
Vfran, I just pulled it out of a box recently. Unfortunately it doesn't go with our current decor. Hubby voiced a negative opinion dang it! Guess it will go in he flea market pile. Gotta pick your battles I guess.
Aww what a shame.
If I saw this in a flea market I'd grab it!
Hi Amber.
The ashtray.
I finally found out that I was wrong about its being Fanciullacci.
You are right it is Bitossi.
Aldo Londi.
From a range called "Seta".
Seta is Italian for silk.
The pattern is reminiscent of Thai silks, I think.
This is the comment Amber!
It's very beautiful Amber
Very nice info V! I found another Bitossi this week. I will get a post together.
