Exquisite detail worked into each engraving
and beautifully painted, these are a joy to look at and there's so much
going-on as well, it's not just a rabbit, it's a rabbit with eggs and balloons
and chicks and friends and a something-or-other . . . !
It's just as busy on the pond!
Easter wreaths, not a particularly UK
thing, and I don't remember them from my childhood, but I have seen them for
sale in the last few years, so I guess it's not just steel, aluminium or
plastics which have 'globalised'!
Is that a young Dylan on the left? Roundabout
of magic not folk-rock star of moroseness, of course! And don't lick that
mushroom kidos, they look pretty but they're not nice! Although - maybe mice have evolved to eat them - slugs love'em!
Tuning-up for Sunday Service! I hope
someone's going to be feeding all these chicks running around everywhere, and I
love the little curious hedgehog that keeps popping-up at the edge of things!
"Faster
little lambie; faster! Get us to the Easter party on time or I'll have to whip
you with these silken ribbons!" It's a Harley Electra-egg-chariot-pram-glide!
Thanks again Mr. B; these are a real treat and it's a joy to put them on the Blog occasionally - timeless craft/art!
If the company that produces these flats did 19th century military flats how fabulous would that be?
ReplyDeleteThey probably do Terra? There are fewer companies making flats these days and between them they have a lot of inherited moulds in their archives, but looking at the S&S website, it's possibly not the shop to order smaller or military castings, I would imagine these are imported 'bare' and painted locally, although you see similar stuff in Bavarian shop-windows!
