Description

Enchanting lady figurine planters were promoted heavily by florists and five-and-dime stores, becoming a gift-giver's favorite during the 1950s and '60s.

These lovely ladies were produced mainly in Japan, targeted for the U.S. market, and most commonly adorned with colorful plastic flowers.

Today they are rapidly gaining popularity on the ceramics collectibles market.

These planters have made limited appearances in head vase and figural planter books, but here, finally, is a comprehensive guide devoted specifically to this fascinating collectible.

It focuses on Japanese-manufactured products and features over 350 color photographs of more than 700 planters.

Individual captions describe each planter's height, mark, and estimates current market value.

Also included is a review of planter production techniques and the various ways they were identified and numbered.

As an added bonus, a handy cross-reference provides an easy way for specialty collectors to find their favorite importer such as Lefton, Relpo, or Enesco.

Featuring a wonderful variety of planters, from festively painted Christmas ladies to nursery rhyme characters and Valentine sweethearts, this carefully crafted book provides collectors and dealers with a superb reference.
