Especially great paired with this ashtray by Nils Thorsson

certainly bears a strong resemblance to West German pieces of the fat lava era

and holds four black lacquered coasters inside

Hand Sculpted Ceramic Bluebird, Signed raw clay Especially great paired with thisI haven't been able to find out much of anything about this wonderful little baby bluebird, which I found at the estate sale of an actress and philanthropist in Brookline, MA, whose many fine and interesting things reinforce my believe that this is something pretty special!
