Vintage Sigg Switzerland Steel & Wood Votive Holder

This is a really great design and it's too bad Sigg (the Swiss water bottle maker) doesn't make it anymore. White enameled steel with two wooden handles, and two holes with a steel votive holder in each. Very Wallpaper-Magazine. I'd love to keep it, but we just don't do enough entertaining and I'd rather have it go to a good home (where you tell your guests, "Isn't that wonderful- I got it at the Wary Meyers shop!") Measures 13" long, 6.5" deep, and 2.75" high (includes handles)

Great condition

This is a great planter, or holder for anything- paintbrushes, kitchen utensils, chopsticks, etc, but it would look pretty cool with a southern Californian plant in it. 8.5" high, 5" wide, 4.5" deep.

40 Abstract Matisse-esque Ceramic Tiles

These would look great above just about anywhere you put tiles. Each one is a different handpainted abstrat design, like an expressionistic Dutch windmill, or a Matisse cut-out, or alternately a Van Gogh Starry Night. If you line them up side-by-side your eye really sees the blue design more- so there are plenty of configurations to design with. 40 tiles, each is 6"x6". They weigh 30 pounds.

Condition: almost as-new.

Vintage Bunch of 11 Life-Size Ceramic Bananas Sold

Attention Banana Lovers! These awesome life-size bananas are each hand-painted slightly different from one another, and have a hole in one side where a macrame knot is pushed in. They hang as seen in the middle photo, below. Unsigned, but judging from the macrame and the little cloth loop, they're likely from the 70's or 80's.

Condition: no chips or cracks.

Vintage Ceramic Sheepdog Sold

Giant for a piece of pottery yet smallish for a sheepdog, h's 17" tall and awesome. No markings, he's definitely old and appears to be the same mold as the collectable Merrymac dogs, but without any airbrushing and kitsch. He's more of the Jeff Koons Puppy school of dog sculptures. A very faithful companion.

Condiotion: All over crazing, a bit of an old rust stain around his collar (could be bleached) and slight chipping to his right side back- see photos. This is very fragile, so it'll require a little extra in packing materials and shipping cost.
