Axel Salto and more...
Thank goodness I got this piece of Axel Salto ages ago...the prices now are absurd (not that I didn't think they were absurd then!)
There's also a Hjorth piece (woman with fish...we got in Copenhagen)...and the big tile is from a old heater/oven that we bought in Budapest. The small green vase is presumably Weller with butterfly patterns on the edge. The tray is Royal Doulton (with a Dragonfly at the top) and it is holding a piece of rock we picked up at the Step Pyramid of Djozer in Egypt (considered to be the oldest large-scale stone construction).
Rolf Palm apples
I actually have 4 of these but I can't find the fourth...the great thing about them is that the glaze and shape really is reminiscent of apples...the green is a granny smith color and the red is a deep apple red (yeah, so I don't know the apple variety that is RED!). The photograph does not show it exactly.
