In the bottom left corner of the box you type a post into, it says "Add Attachment?"

click that and choose the file (picture) you would like to add to the post.

Good Afternoon Renee,
We are happy to see you on the site and wish you welcome. I feel that you will find many things on this forum about our past history that placed the crafts back into the hands of true craftsmen.

Looking at your picture I ran out of breath running from one side of the picture to the other to see the full picture of it. I don't suppose that you could reduce it a bit?

Yes you can load more pictures by first inserting them in a gallery as I am sure either Lauren or Rikki will help you. They helped me and I printed the instructions out but, now can't find them.

Respectfully,

Ralph Jones

Sorry about the picture. I'm not really sure how to downsize it I am really computer illerate. I did add some pictures to the gallery which are a smaller size they even look better than the first one I sent. Do you know anything about Weller Pottery? It is a really pretty vase..
Any information would be helpful..
Thanks,
Ranee

Hey Rikki,
Thanks a bunch as I am still sweating after that jog.

Ranee, I know absolutely nothing about pottery except it may break if dropped but, I do know that there are some on here who can better answer your question.

Respectfully,

Ralph Jones

Ranee,

Your Weller vase in a "day lilly" design is very charming and it appears to be in perfect condition. Some Weller pots are more desirable than others. Pottery is not my strength and my resources are very limited. I believe that there is at least one book that specializes in Weller Pottery. Perhaps you could search your local library or bookstores.

The Collector's Encyclopedia of Weller Pottery , Huxford, 1979, ISBN: 0-89145-1145

All About Weller , McDonald, 1989, ISBN: 0-915410-60-5

Weller Pottery The Rare, The Unusual, The Seldom Seen , Carrigan & Wunsch, 2003, ISBN: 0-9740633-0-4


I will see what I can find.

Hi all. About your Weller vase, the line is called Mi-Flo, produced between 1935-38. A nice example of later Weller. If you are considering resale, it unfortunatley does not command the big bucks. Hope this helps. Mac
