Welcome to the East Wing 2008

Below you will find all the pots that were auctioned on eBay in 2008.

Carved Rim Chickens Bowl

Fill this bowl with eggs and make these chickens proud! Or fill it with popcorn and give them something to eat. Either way, this will be a contented flock. This stoneware bowl is 6" wide and 3 1/2" high. This pot was sold in November for $290.00.

Carved Rim Cats and Sparrows Bowl

On this bowl, we have ten cats carefully eying five sparrows. Let's hope the birds fly off before it's time for lunch. The inside is fully painted with the cats' tails joining in the middle. This hand carved stoneware bowl is 6 1/2" wide and 3 3/4" high. This pot was sold in October for $306.99.

Carved Rim Trumpeter Swan Vase

The Trumpeter swan is the largest native waterfowl in North America, with a wingspan over 7 feet. Trumpeter swans have strong family bonds, mating for life and caring for their offspring for much longer than many other birds. This stoneware vase is 4 1/2" wide and 7" high. This pot was sold in September for $561.00.

Sheep Portrait Covered Container

Spring is sheep shearing time. Wool grows continuously; if a sheep doesn't get an annual hair-cut, she will be hot and uncomfortable in the summer months. This sheep is ready to lose her winter coat. This porcelain jar is 5" wide and 3" high. This pot was sold in May for $162.50.

Happy Hippo Bowl

Here's a bowl to make you smile. A herd of happy hippos loll about in their own murky pond. At night, they waddle out to crop the nearby grasses. This stoneware bowl is 7 1/2" wide and 3 1/8" high. This pot was sold in April for $255.02.

Giraffe Salt Shaker

The only time you'll find a group of giraffes so interwoven is on this shaker. Though giraffes are social animals and live in open herds, they tend to keep their distance from one another. Mothers protecting young and when lions are nearby are two reasons they draw together. This porcelain shaker is 3 3/4" high and 3 1/4" wide. This pot was sold in March for $154.02.

Amazon Parrots Mug

Parrots and macaws are very social birds. If you bring a parrot into your home, you become it's flock and must give the bird the attention it deserves. The parrots on this mug aren't demanding at all. This porcelain mug is 4" high, 3 1/4" wide and holds 11 oz. This pot was sold in February for $139.51.

Adelie Penguins Vase

Adelie penguins are the most common of all the Antarctic penguins as well as the smallest. They weigh about 10 pounds, are approximately 2 feet tall. Their simple black and white coloring protects them while swimming, providing camouflage against predators. From above, their black back blends in with the dark of the sea and their white belly is bright against the sea surface when seen from below. This porcelain pot is 4 3/4" high and 4" wide. This pot was sold in January for $356.00.
