Two more cameo girls appeared on the QVC Victorian Show. You can order them in QVC. These do not look like Debby Kaspari designs and they made 750
of them. The style numbers are H02259 & H02265 Victorian Dreamer - or for the set H04458. You can put each in the search box at QVC.com to pull them up. I have no plans to order them or
to add them to the website. Interesting to note - if you look at "More Views" so you can view the top and bottom, they do not say Cameo girls or Encore on them.

This note today from Bonnie about a recent article on Lady Head Vases. You may want to get
this issue, sounds interesting!
"Hello Everyone,
I am very excited. One day I had a lady by the name of Charity Vogel contact me through my website and she was gathering information about vintage headvases. She asked me if she could mention me in her article if it got published and I told her she could.
Well....... The article was published in the September issue that will be coming out of Old-House Interiors."

Certified Restoration of Porcelain & Pottery
I received the following information from Frederica Barr. She informed
me that she restores head vases. Here is the information she supplied:
"I am beginning my 8th year in restoration. I am on the National Hummel Club's list of
recommended restorers. I have also completed a number of Staffordshire pieces - most recently a large staffordshire dog. Estimates are free and
people ship me pieces from all over. I am located 45 minutes south of Atlanta - just off I85.
References are available. I do not do glass repair or porcelain dolls - however, I will tackle almost anything else! I routinely work on teapots, figurines, porcelain jewelry,
Majolica pieces, and old pottery. I have even restored a terra-cotta (life-size) Chinese Warrior
and a small "chalk" carousel horse table base."

to see picture of one of the first Limoges Boxes. Not sure
yet if the hat pins shown in the picture will be priced separately,
details soon. They will be available soon!
06/26/99 I'm really excited at seeing the first 2 boxes of what I hope
is just the beginning!! I'll have these 2 on my website very soon,
I think you'll agree that these hand-painted porcelain hinged
boxes of our lady heads are the most AWESOME works of art!!! I can't
begin to describe them, but you must visit my Limoges pages to get
an idea of the craftsmanship that goes into these highly collectible
porcelains. Having the two collectibles which I am completely crazed for
come together has me on cloud NINE and I can't wait to share them with
all you head-aholics!!!! I am hoping to get the pictures up very soon
and can start taking orders for them. More news soon!!
Take a look at the huge collection of Limoges boxes I offer now to
get an idea of what they will be like. CLICK HERE!
