Amber Brockwitz lady centrepiece
« on: July 15, 2013, 07:41:48 PM »
Hello
I know this set was made by Brockwitz and appears in the catalogues.
My question is their is also a catalogue image of the lady in a vase....I was wondering what sort of holder would she be slotted into to go into the vase?
Any input would be most appreciated
Thanks Nige

Hi,
she´s shown in the 1936 catalogue on Pamela´s site here:
Brockwitz Farbentafeln
But she also fits into the Prism Vase (´Blumenkorb´) here:
Brockwitz Farbentafeln II

Hi Dirk
Thanks so much for those catalogue images....the figure in the vase I was trying to figure out what sort of frog she would sit into in that vase?

I found the Blumenkorb piece - frog included - last year and gave it to Pamela. I could imagine that the
frog might also fit into the vase shown in the first link.
Think we´ll need a picture from Pamela - I´ll poke her...  ;)

Grateful thanks, Dirk!  :-*

Here are some quick shots taken with my mobile today:
Pamela
Die Erfahrung lehrt, dass, wer auf irgendeinem Gebiet zu sammeln anfängt, eine Wandlung in seiner Seele anheben spürt. Er wird ein freudiger Mensch, den eine tiefere Teilnahme erfüllt, und ein offeneres Verständnis für die Dinge dieser Welt bewegt seine Seele.
Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.
Alfred Lichtwark (1852-1914)
