this is clearly a couple for the ages

the closest I've found (and which I'd guess this in fact is) was made by Ferdinand Strauss

I have completely fallen in love with Makah and Nuu-chah-nulth (Nootka) baskets

one finds a fair number of old industrial wooden molds

Since finding one of these amazing old "yarn winder" whimsies in a bottle at Brimfield last summer

Tall Pottery Craft California Mid-Century Stoneware Vase repose box this is clearly a coupleA nice, tall Pottery Craft, CA stoneware vase, vintage 1960s, with a matte, mottled oatmeal colored glaze and dark brown patterning While quintessentially mid century, I like that this vase also has a sort of farmhouse feel, and would be great filled with wildflowers, cattails, or a few flowering branches. 11 1 4" tall with a diameter of 3 3 4" across at lip and 4 1 2" across at base. Excellent condition.
