i heart macro
I know. That's one honkin' humongous picture, but I love it full sized and so well, here tis.
So proud of my "find" today. $1.95 at Goodwill and I thought it was a beautiful little creamer.
Googled this fella, Mr. W. J. Gordy.
Turns out he was a well known potter and has works displayed in the Smithsonian!
I don't think it's worth a mint - probably not even $30. But I love unique pottery and feel as though I found something significant.
Isn't it pretty?
