Fantastic vintage ceramic Dutch shoe planter!
This planter is perfect for succulents or other small plants or makes a beautiful display on its own. Features a classic Holland scene with a "Little Dutch Girl" on one side of the ceramic wooden shoe and trees on the other. A raised ceramic bluebird is on the toe of the shoe. I believe it was made in the 1950s.
Measures approximately 6 1/2 inches long by 3 inches wide and 3 inches tall.
In good condition. The paint is clear, there is lovely crazing consistent with its age, and the bluebird is in perfect condition!
The inside is stained from use and there appears to be a hairline crack or deep scratch on the bottom of the shoe near the words "Made in Japan" (see pictures). It does not go through to the inside of the shoe nor does it appear to affect the soundness of this item.
