More for the registry.

Dachshund from Jonathon Adler. Billed as part of a "playful collection of ceramic animals simplified into their essential forms accented with a layer of bold geometric pattern". The figure features high-fired stoneware with a matte white or midnight glaze and measures 12" long x 3" wide x 5.25" high. Basically the perfect measurements for ANYWHERE IN MY HOUSE. Right?



Anywhere on my table please know there is room for the one inch tall dachshund place card holder, part of a "playful menagerie of place card holders. Each one is made of solid brass with a black patina and rubbed edges".



This whole post is making me think of a couple of things. I realize that I am about thisclose to officially meandering from "I love Doxies" to crazy Doxie lady status, the secret is as long as the thing I desire can pose as "art" and was not macramed or puff painted I am safe.

Also, do you know that Jonathan Adler, besides blowing up all over the world as the new minimalist guru with a high end but budget friendly sensibility (thank you, Target)is College best friends with designer Liz Lange (of Pregnancy clothing and Target fame) and is married to Barney's window designer and taste maker Simon Doonan (link to their wedding write up in the Times)??!!!?? Do all famous people know each other or do ambitious minds attract one another and then continue to celebrity in a mass push?
