$34 USD SaleSALE Royal Copley Bird on Stump Planter
Pottery:Royal Copley
Although we love retro and MCM, we tend to live in older homes and decorate in a preWWII not post war manner. We are therefore offering most of our MCM items here on Ruby Lane to make room for things we can display in our more Arts and Crafts decorating style.

Both wall pockets are in excellent condition; no chips, cracks, or repairs. The top inside corners of the boy pocket have some roughness, but it does not appear to me to be damage, but how it came from the factory. The wall pockets are both nicely glazed in at least 6 ...
