Very nice. I would love to have a Garden of Allah myself.
Unfortunately, they're particularly prone to fading, and one with good color always goes for more than I'd like to spend.

Was looking through some old threads over the weekend and ran across this which I had forgotten about long ago. While doing some spring cleaning and moving stuff around I was thinking about my favorite piece(s) and decided I couldn't make up my mind. So...

I thought I'd take a few pictures, mainly of the pottery and get everyone's thoughts since I always enjoy when others post their pics.

Starting with one of the hardest choices for me, the small Grueby collection currently have. It's hard to see the small detail in my horrible photos but, thoughts, favorites?





If others are interested I'll post some other pottery pics over the next week.

Love the big bowl on the right. The indent and enlarged rim above the leaves set it apart. What I really love is the Gus divan in the background

Just kickin' down the cobble-stones, lookin' for fun and feelin' grueby"

The light blue Grueby is very sophisticated, I have a yellow one that is similar which is one of my favorite pieces.
