Re: Cowan

About time someone put a set of these here. Mine are in a soft peach color. Have never seen them in teal.

All of Postgate's Cowan work is sublime. I may have all her elephants. The polar bears are the toughest catch.

Re: Cowan

Thanks, Brian, but I've had these bookends for years. I keep them on each side of the fireplace mantel. You were probably so dazzled with my mantel display of RW Bauer and Rumrill nudes that you did not see the Cowan!
