Cool Old Green Striped Snake salt glazed and have not found another

and have not found another quite like him

and mounted rather crookedly (via tape in the top corners) to matte board

a studio potter born in Boston in 1936

made in England for Abercrombie & Fitch and designed for auto excursions

I think it would be especially great used as a bedside vase in a guest room

Cool Old Green Striped Snake salt glazed and have not found anotherThis snake looks almost as if it is made of wood, but I think that it is old rubber a bit pliable, but fairly stiff. I think it's just fantastic, with these green painted stripes, inset beaded eyes, and tiny little red tongue. I have no idea of its origins, and found it at a flea market, but really could not love it more. It's surface shows some age, which just makes it all the better. 9" long x 2 1 2" wide x 3 8 thick.
