<p>[QUOTE="Darkwing Manor, post: 394047, member: 738"]Not saying that this lovely whimsical piece is one or not, but that was my initial reaction also. I remember when you could find one of those "make it yourself" greenware ceramics studios in every U.S. town, c. 1980s. I am guilty of a few horrors myself. Glazes are magical, and evil...they never turn out the way they look coming out of the jar. And don't even get me started on dubiously chosen transfers. I have fondly dubbed these hobby pieces "Grandmajolica". Feel free to adopt the term if you like it, I would be honored.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
