Title: chinese paperweight with a bird cane
Post by: RAY on June 19, 2005, 03:08:34 PM
another one of my finds today, a chinese PW with two canes with birds in, it's the 1st time i've seen them with birds in, anyone else seen anything like it, it's quite well done considering it's chinese

Yes, I agree Ray.  I've seen some of these canes in other Chinese weights, but not the birds I must admit  :shock:

From the 'leaf' canes I think I recognise this as by the 'Chinese person or persons' I have noted as having a jolly good 'go' at producing something worthwhile!  

The little bird canes are quite cute, aren't they?   :D

I saw a very unusual Chinese paperweight on Ebay last night.  I almost put it on here under the title 'Black Sperm', but I thought it might get the ladies excited.   :shock:  :lol:

It was actually rather unusual and cute, lots of black tadpoles and some greeny fern stuff....almost bought it, then thought Leni would laugh at me.   :lol:  :roll:

 :shock:  :shock:  :shock: Max, I almost bought that one myself!  :shock:  :shock:  :shock:

Actually, the only reason I didn't bid on it was because I was p***ed off with the seller, 'cos she keeps out-bidding me on p'weights I want!   :evil:  :oops:  :roll:  :lol:
