  • Wow!!! here my heart really bumps! What a fantastic collection and beautifully displayed!!!! Compliments!
  • Kathleen your collection is incredible - it would be so helpful when you make an image of a whole bunch like this to include an indication of the scale- perhaps the end of a ruler, or even a familiar coin in one corner for comparison?

     

  • in the case of so many treasures like your great examples, yes -  the attractive design qualities, the traditions, materials, information about the origins and techniques and their dimensions all enrich our understanding about them whether we are researchers or collectors. to me the right scale and the structure (how its made) can work together.
