Pair of Studio Pottery Lamps
It is hard to find a vintage pair of lamps, let alone a vintage pair of studio pottery lamps. These are in the danish modern style. They are signed but the glaze has dripped over the signature making it hard to read. They are a handsome set. From the Salvation Army

Print: Beckett Still Life II 24/30
I found this print in goodwill about 2 months ago. It is very cool and in a very nice (and expensive) custom walnut with chrome inlay frame. Purchased for $14.99 (I gasped too, when I saw the price. Talk about under appreciated.) Size ~17x21

Small Italian Bowl (Ashtray)
I am hoping this is Fantoni, but I don't know (could be tourist junk). It has a leather bottom. $0.50
Red Wing Pottery Plate
Handpainted Lotus Patern (discontinued in 1957) Purchased at goodwill for 50 cents. I see where Ikea gets its inspiration.
