tell me about the *other* Asian maples
Comments (2)OMG. I stopped by to see what tree someone might be discussing and my jaw dropped. It would take 18 thousand pages to list all the varieties, and it still wouldn't really mean anything since height, growth rate, color, exposure, blah blah varies sometimes from neighborhood to neighborhood. Particularly around the edges of zones. I picked up the book referenced above and loved it. I was pleased to see many of my maples in it. Oh - the thing to realize is that much of the info online is out of Oregon/Washington state, where growing conditions are optimal. Many web sites just copy that info, vs. what would apply in their own area. I tend to look at nurseries south of GA (Metro maples in Texas, for example) for a hotter, less shaded condition. If someone says, "Sun/part shade" they probably can't speak of an experience with that particular maple. Because pretty much every single JM would be thrilled to be in that exposure. That's not life....See MoreCan anyone tell me anything about these?
Comments (9)So.....they are not "pottery"...that is unglazed bisque?....not that composition stuff? But if they are soap stone they would have to be carved individually and would not be patent pending. Wonder if the patent was granted? There ought to be a way to do a search on the artist's name at the patent office....probably available on line. Because they say patent pending I am sure they are not one of a kind. Perhaps they are the babies from a movie? Or a children's book? Sorry....never seen anything like them. Linda C...See MoreCan anyone tell me about my asian pottery? xpost from decorating
Comments (6)I always thought brush washes were quite a bit smaller than that. I google imaged "famille rose fish bowl" there are quite a few on there, but I couldn't find one like yours. Do you have an antiques dealer or auction house that deals in Asian Antiques near to you? Truly good Asian antiques are doing really well right now, so it would be a good time to figure it out. Sometimes it takes a long time to figure out exactly what you have. I have a vase that I've had for a number of years, every once in a while I try to do some more research. One day I will figure it out, maybe....;-) mfrog...See MoreCan anyone tell about Pottery Barn's round jute rug?
Comments (5)I have the 6' round under my kitchen table and I really like it. It has held up fine to the chairs - the cats are a different story. They have decided one spot is perfect for scratching. Even so, I still like it. I found it as a PB outlet so if you have one near you I'd try it first. If the cat damage gets too bad, I'll probably replace it with another one....See MoreOakley
