A thorough review of pieces made, other than their vase. Purchased to research the bookends and flower frogs, and found it very useful.

Okay. I’ve read many Rookwood books but let me justify by saying I have an addiction. I started collecting in 2023 and now have more than 20 pieces of vintage production and two artist signed pieces. And have read 6 books and have at least 3 more to work through.

Whatever. Some people do meth. I don’t do meth.
