Sorry picture of the Corner cabinet made by Frank Brown. You can see the shelves behind the glass door. Below the bottom shelf that you see is another compartment with a solid door behind the stack of two water bottles. The cabinet is really quite nice. You have to like solid mahogany which beats the current pressed wood cabinets in use today. The cabinet can be had most any time except I have to do something with the stuff in it.

Japanese Doll china pieces. (Not compete)
Music Box
Ceramic doll bed with mattress with music box, Plays "Rock a Bye Baby"
Highly glazed Japanese doll dishes. The tea pot seems to have lost it's top. Cups, saucers, cream pitcher, teapot, I Think these are hand painted because the pictures seem to vary a little as far as placement of color is concerned. Kay has had these for many, many years. I forget the significance but some of these are stamped "made in Japan." That makes them made either before or after the occupation ended. I believe the ones just stamped "Japan" are of a later date. These could be Kay's from when she was a little girl.
shecant tell me now. I don't know what the Japanese stamp was in those days. Only one is stamped anyway. The teapot I think.

NW Indian Carving by H C Brown
About 14 inches tall with hanger for hanging on a wall.
carved H C Brown about 1965. Purchased from the Indian Center then at 113 Cherry Street in Seattle. I think it is cedar but am not sure. Light like cedar but does not smell. However because it is 40 years hence that might be the reason. I think it was named "boy eaten by bear" but the paper on the back came off. The sales slip is still stapled to it. I think it is Tlingit

Water color painting originally purchased when Dianne was born. Bought to decorate the walls of her nursery It is a 12x15 inch water color. The colors are good although the paper is getting brown. Not surprising considering it is about 70 years.
So is Dianne

Erphila Ceramic from Occupied Germany
A 4 inch porcelain figuring stamped made in Occupied Germany. As this is a Czechoslovakia company the only way I can see it as occupied Germany is because it was under American occupation before the Americans moved back and it went under other occupation. I didn't send it home so we got it somewhere later.
