Objects
The gesture figure from school, I use it to hang iPod headphones, gym badge, rubber bands. A mannequin head where I keep my hat during the winter.

Vases
Eva Zeisel vases, Moooi Egg vase, and Heath bowl(sitting on the Girard style coffee table that my wife made me for Valentine's day, Knoll version was too big, tall, and we needed the shape reversed).

Used to see loads of the...
Used to see loads of the gesture figures in the 1980s/early 90s. I've also got a couple of Girard's dolls too which are quite cool, if a little expensive.
Regarding the Vedel Birds, I have these in stock (all 3 sizes), along with other bits from Juhl, Kjaerholm etc which make great little accessories 🙂
I'll post some more pics of other bits I have soon!

Love the puddy tat cloudburst. Cats are so beautifully designed and make the perfect appartment accessory.

Took me 10 years to finally find one of these! Tapio Wirkkala for iitala. This is the Lunaria Serving Bowl, NOT the more common Ultima Thule. 16"dia x 5"height.
Parents had one of these growing up, never thought I would find another. Only other one I saw wasn't for sale and I begged the owner of the MCM store. Found mine on ebay, and a month later purchased an even more rare 13"dia version.

just love that wirkkala...
just love that wirkkala glassware! it was just last week i've seen this pieces for the first time..did you pay the price or was it a bargain? i would love to have the more vertical models..

My passion
My passion is for Scandinavian glass too
I'm still in a building site, but will endeavour to get pics up soon
We're getting there !

Paid $185 on ebay for the large one and $65 for the medium one. Totally forgot that I then purchased the really small one that is only like 7inches in dia, and that cost me $110. So I beieve that I have the complete set.
It not only took me 10 years to find these, but 10 years to figure out what the name of the design was - think I had to let the internet do a little catching up.
I also own 2 of these in the pic, love them - they huge not the small 7" ones. Looking for the really rare and expensive "ice" edition next.

OOh I love the monkey! I saw one of those in a book I was browsing recently...

I'm drawn to old metal objects that feature typography
such as these, which I use as paperweights-- an old brass NYC Public School door knob mounted onto a wood cube, a 2 lb iron weight, a brass Hershey bar.

great thread!
I collect old oil portraits and whatever other art (usually anonymous) catches my eye at estate auctions. I like these three together.
I also have a lot of little figures for someone who claims not to collect little figures. The teak cat is Danish and the metal one is a Walter Bosse, I think. Or looks a lot like one if it isn't one. The turtle is Japanese and has glass eyes. That's a tray behind them---thin wood cutouts on black lacquer or resin or something---may be from southeast Asia, I dunno. It has a pelican in the center.
Last is my favorite portrait. I dunno who she is or who painted her. The vases need thinning out a bit. The bigger gray one with wavy orange marks is a Japanese art studio piece and the rest are just Japanese pieces from the 50s-60s and good amateur pottery. I like all the earthy glazes and the contrasting shapes together.

one more
I got these Kokeshi dolls along with about 400 others at an estate auction. I sold the rest but kept this one pair for myself. They're about 50-60 years old and about a foot tall.
