Antique Treen Dice Cup with Celluloid Dice antique Japanese lacquer box and some bits left unglazed

and some bits left unglazed entirely

A single mushroom took about 15 days to complete from clay sculpture to final firing and each is a little work of art  avidly collected for their beauty as well as their botanical accuracy

generally facing the main shrine

reflecting conflicting instincts

this reminds me of a Carl Aubock in its simple but just-right form and weight

Antique Treen Dice Cup with Celluloid Dice antique Japanese lacquer box and some bits left unglazedThe beautiful old treen dice cup 19th century I believe really makes me want to take up Craps, or pretty much any game involving throwing dice! It's super satisfying to use, and looks great sitting on the table the rest of the time just a great form, and with a really nice warm patina. And so that it's ready to use immediately upon unpacking, I'm throwing in a great pair of old caramel colored celluloid dice! A great gift for your favorite game
