I love many styles and eras...this one early USA (unmarked). I also love Made in Japan and the more rare Made in England. I am not partial to the animal. Some of the brands off the top of my head: Lefton, McCoy, Brush, Shawnee. I even have an Avon one (the ducks with babies on the middle shelf).
We have two collie sisters and so I spent a little more than my self-imposed $3 max. I think she was $6 at a flea market, but it matched another one (sitting) I found a few years ago.
I showed you a made in USA and the collie is a Made in Japan, but I am not prejudice. This cutie was made in Mexico and will soon have cacti on his back. I have a soft spot for turtles-I even have one tattooed on my ankle!
(Sometimes non-animal planters make it into the collection. I love these ducklings found for 99c each.
Swans are all over my bathroom. In fact, my animal planter collection crosses many collection boundaries. Does she belong to this planter collection or is she part of my swan collection? Or maybe she is just part of my huge bird collection? Hmmm...?
The owl is another sneaky guest among the planters. He is a bank and was probably a ceramic craft project of someone. He is marked S.H. Here is also a shot of an anthropomorphic planter. I love them and have a bunch. I believe I started out collecting these type along with the realistic type and then, eventually, any type.
I try to stay away from human animal planters, but I loved this Asian woman. She is a big planter (BlueGrass Brewing Company bottle for reference and relaxation purposes) and I actually "planted" her (a rare thing).
OK, so there you have a sampling of my collection.
