About the Item

My title for this beautiful and excellent condition cast iron doorstop is appropriately called "Floral Arrangement in Green Vase". I have not seen this before, and it is not noted in any reference book on the subject; so I will call it "scarce". It is delicately and intricately cast in great detail; in addition, it is attractively painted in vibrant lifelike colors of red, green, blue, pink, yellow, and orange. The doorstop is all original, no repairs, no repaint--simply a gorgeous condition, great looking piece. Looking realistic, resting in a green vase, weighing a hefty 6+ pounds, and being quite rare and in this condition, "Floral Arrangement in Green Vase" would be highly sought after by discerning collectors-----a wonderful piece of Americana. Dimensions: 7 1/2" high x 6 1/2" wide x 2 3/8" deep Provenance: From my own collection since 1998 Note: After 40 plus years of dealing and collecting toys, and cast iron products, I am justly qualified to guarantee and present the authenticity of antique and vintage items and children's playthings; important considering the fakes and reproductions in the marketplace.

It is nicely painted in brown, orange, and black, with flesh tones to the face and hands. Dimensions are 5 3/4" High x 4" Deep x 3" Wide. It has quite a bit of weight to it considering it's size.

Staffordshire Cottage Still Bank, English, circa 1880
By Staffordshire
Located in Incline Village, NV
Very attractive and well-made decorative and colorful Staffordshire porcelain money box or savings bank; made in England, indicative of the style potters from that region employed, circa 1880. Nicely detailed with green floral facie, orange double pane windows and front door, and a white painted cottage with brown steps and green fauna at entry. There were no "coin traps" or provisions for coin removal so banks such as these are rare since smashing or breaking the bank was the only method by which the money could be retrieved. The bank is in very good all original condition with only a minor "hairline" repair to one of the chimney stacks (see image). It is very sound and done a long time ago and is hardly noticeable. Being a cross collectible, this would be a very unique addition for a Staffordshire collector indeed (the subject being a money box), or a welcome compliment to any still bank...
