Description

Today is evidently Winnie the Pooh Day. I don't have a Pooh bear and someone has nicked the book from my shelves, but I am the proud owner of these cuties made by Joan Sydenham for the Wareham Bears shop. There is a lot about the Sydenham potters here Here See them on a black background Here

the flickr version isn't really a 'black' background, so much as one of your perfume bottle backgrounds, a morph of a few hues with goldish undertones, and it's beautiful. In this setting, your background brings out the light tones of the sculptures; and there's plenty of shade and highlight to give them shape, in your shot. They're wonderful sculptures; and I glanced at the article---that studio does beautiful stuff. I know nothing of salt glazing, and will read about it later. But there's some beautiful stuff in that style. These are more of the many beautiful pieces from your home, and I have a feeling that if I were there, I'd never leave. (When I did leave, you'd say, "excuse me---what's in that huge bag??? you didn't come here with that huge bag---can I look inside?") Thanks for sharing these.

They look cute. I can see why one would want to collect them.

My father used to call such things 'dust collectors'. I, however, have always been a fan of whimsy and the odd. These are quite lively and full of character. Thanks for the link. Some wonderful stuff there. Mr. Sydenham and his cohorts were very talented.
