Topic: Question regarding a "stump Lady" flower frog?

[Lustrousstone]

There's been a lot of confusion over these and definitely more than one maker. The 1956 catalogue shows the lady with her hands over her breasts and her right leg on top. The lady with bare breasts and her right leg on top frequently appears in a 2565 bowl, so I think it is safe to assume the right leg on top ladies are Sowerby and the others are not; particularly as Meegs' left leg on top matte black lady is in a colour not made by Sowerby when these were made (or at least not as normal production).

Wayne is very good but isn't always accurate; indeed he may not have noticed the legs.

Kitty-Kat1234,
Unfortunately I don't have a Sowerby example holding her hair in front but as I have found there are many different examples of these lovely ladies coyly holding there hair at their chest.....

The lady on the left with her hands in her lap (Thanks to Christine) I think I can safely assume is Sowerby.

Cheers
Meegs (who is now hunting for a Sowerby example!)

Andromeda is one of my favourites, depending on whether she is pegged it not she either sits in a bowl (with a flower block if she is pegged)  or in the centre of a posy ring.

For a quick resizing on a windows operating system I re-size my photos for posting by making a copy of the photo file and sending it to "my documents", opening the copy with "paint", clicking on the "image" button and then clicking on stretch/skew to reduce the image by equal percentages in the stretch part. (eg from 100% to 50% both horizontally and vertically). The larger the original file size the greater the reduction needs to be. I then save this file (making sure I save as a jpg). By checking the properties of the file you can see if you have reduced the photo to 125 kb or less. If you need to you can repeat the process. When I'm posting the photo I click the browse button here in the post reply section , find "my documents" in the "look in" drop down section, click thumbnails on the menu button (blue square looking button) and voila there is my image I can click on and open so it posts.
Hope this helps,
Cheers
