Wonderful 1920s Weller Pottery Frog on Lily Pad Planter - repaired, but great Chinese cinnabar vase slightly larger

slightly larger

Best of all are those green polka dotted roosters on the end

paintbrush and palette in hand

happy perched most anywhere or carried in a pocket as a good luck charm

as it is a tender attempt to accomplish something possible in this impossible thing we know as life

I often admire early Weller pottery, specifically (not surprisingly) their matte green glazed vessels from the 1910s 20s, but they're usually a bit beyond my reach. This sweet thing, which I really want to see planted with a few crocus or other early spring flowers, I found the other day in Maine, and while it shows an old repair, I don't think it matters a bit if one is to indeed use it as a planter, as one most definitely should!
