In addition to a beautiful rosette, my Windsong Sherif won this red china horse head as Reserve Grand Champion in the Americanware Show at Breakables (Breyerfest, 2012.) It was hollow inside, too. Odd. But what was it?
Maggie Barkovitz, the show's host, posted a thank you letter online, and that's how I discovered I'd won a stirrup cup! I'd heard of them, but did not know what they were. Wow! Sculpted by Kristina Francis Lucas - I cannot afford her work! Pretty nifty!
Second, I want to thank Kristina Lucas Francis and Marge Para. Kristina
your stirrup cups this year were genius. They were a fun and refreshing
change from the tiles. I hope the entrants liked them too. Keeping it fun
and fresh are two of my favorite things to do, and you delivered with these
cups. To Marge thank you for casting and glazing these wonderful pieces.
