Can anyone ever have too many brass animals?

I think not.  It's fun to see how these vintage creatures that were so popular in the mid-1900s have made a comeback.  



A brass snail from Generation Restoration.  Looks like this one is headed for the garden.




Some are really unusual, like this brass shark from The White Pepper.




Another unusual find — an armadillo from Context Vintage.




Who could be without a classic brass owl, like this one from In My Igloo?




Another rare find from Generation Restoration — a brass rhino.


Here's one I found at an antiques shop in Oregon — a brass cricket.



And rounding out the menagerie, a brass quail from The Joe Knox Company.

  2. Thank you for including my quail. It's hard to sell brass animals because I like them so much myself!

  3. I'm a big owl collector but that snail is about the most adorable thing I've ever seen!
