Memory Doll with Hat: I just love her! She stands 12.5" tall to the top of her tea pot hat with a width of 4.25". All porcelain. Covered with many, many vintage objects - charms, jewelry findings, crystal stones, hand painted pencils and beads. The photos are large so you may see the detail. Signed DV 06 on the bottom of her shoes. SOLD


       
Princess Riding Haviland Elephant: The painted porcelain pot is an old Haviland, elephant design, tobacco and pipe jar! I saved him for years until this wonderful porcelain doll decided she wanted to be with him. A perfect match. Both have been decorated with jewelry bits and beads. Her hat is made from a Lucite earring and pot lid. Great fun. This assemblage art measures about 10.5" tall with a diameter of 6.5". Signed DV 06, Haviland W on the bottom.
NOTE: Just to let you know that since I placed this item at auction I have received many emails as to the Haviland Elephant pot. Come to find out, it is extremely rare and only the fourth known to major collectors! Three are with private collectors. Two are in excellent condition, one is in repaired condition and then there is my Elephant which has become Vetromile Art. So not only does Princess Riding Elephant have antique value but it also has value to Vetromile collectors. If you are at all interested in my art then this is the piece to own. It doesn't get better as to value. Thank you.


       
Fish and Jewels Perfume Bottle: This unusual perfume is Vintage Vetromile. I just opened a box of treasures that I had in storage. My guess is that I made it in the mid 1980's - 1990's. I love it. Such madness. The clear crystal jar with decorations stands about 6.5" tall with bottom measurements of 3.25" square. The coral fish are vintage plastic charms and the jewels are vintage crystal. The bottom has applied felt and a Vetromile label. Note: The last photo is extremely large so that you may inspect detail. Lots of sparkle and great fun.


     
Fish and Jeweled B & L Sunglasses: I decorated these black, BAUSCH & LAUMB sunglasses with coral colored, vintage plastic, fish charms and vintage crystal jewels. Both the front and back are finished nicely. See photos. The glasses are marked Drifter, B & L Ray-Ban Frame, France. I did not sign or date this art but my guess is mid to late 1980's so this is another Vintage Vetromile Assemblage Art item. I will sign them DV on the inside if the buyer requests that I do so.


       
"Diamonds and Sapphires" Jeweled Pot: Richly decorated with glass and crystal. The top comes off so that you may store your secret items inside. This vintage coffeepot is 11" tall with a base diameter of 5". Signed DV 06.
