I found this brooch, priced $22.50. I wouldn’t have given it much though except that it was signed and stamped. A closer look at the figures on the brooch and my handy iPhone lead me to realize that I had found something interesting.
They also had a Acoma(?) wedding vase … with what seemed like an entire roll of packing tape applied to it to secure the price tag. {{face palm}}.

Love those whimsical pieces, don’t see many around any more.
Did you check out that pot to see if it was signed?
It was signed but I couldn’t get a very good look at the signature. I was so appalled at the use of packing tape on the vase that I didn’t bother to ask them to open the case. If I thought that there was a chance of getting the tape off without damaging the design, I would have bought it.
I don’t know who much the pot was. Me, I would whine and complain and talk them down some more then take it home and try to steam the packing tape off. But hey, that’s me.
Wonderful find! Thanks for introducing me to the artist.
