| 1:12 scale chamber pots by Sue Dix |
I'm back in Canada, after a wonderful trip! One of the boxes waiting for me was a custom order by American potter Sue Dix, whose work really pleases me. She makes lovely, rustic pieces suitable for earlier period scenes, and I had ordered a number of her regular pieces. I had also asked her to make me some chamber pots, as it's hard to find ones that look appropriate for pre mid-18th century scenes.
These were the reference photos I sent her of late 17th century chamber pots:

Thank you for sharing, I just hopped over and picked up 2 pieces from her shop!
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm so glad you like her work! I love being able to buy directly from the artisan, and these little pieces are just perfect for a rustic or early setting ...
ReplyDeleteAs ever, Nina, you are a great source of knowledge when it comes to mini artisans, thanks for the link!
ReplyDeleteAnd glad you had a good time in Blighty, it certainly looked fun!
These are so cute and the detail is amazing. But I don't see how you had the patience to make them all! I would go crazy having to make that many miniature pots.

I'm headed to Halifax in early October-I'm wondering if anyone knows of dollhouse or miniature shops in the area? Thanks! prgadget@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteHi, Dooger Cat! There are, sadly, no mini or dollhouse shops in Nova Scotia :( There's a great group in Dartmouth, and if your visit coincides with one of their meetings, that might be lovely. I'll try to look out their contact info.
