The Collector's Ladies
Welcome to the collector's
page 2! We all share a common
attraction--those lovely lady
head vases from the past. What is it about these pieces of fired
pottery and ceramic that
pull at your heart and purse strings? One common thread I hear over
and over again
amongst collectors is the feeling of nostalgia these ladies inspire in
them. Memories of
Grandma's house and simpler times.
This page is designed for a wee bit of showin' off and also for
collectors to get to know
each other a little better. If you would like to participate, please
send 2 or 3 clear photos
of your collection via email to kris.chinalski@alaska.net and I
will respond with a
few questions about your collection--no fees involved--just fun!
