| Top left is an amethyst Country Kitchen spittoon whimsey made from a spooner. It is 3 5/8 inches tall and 4 1/4 inches across. At one time in the Giada collection, it is now in the Whitley collection. Above is the only known rosebowl whimsey in the pattern, in marigold. At left are two vases swung from other shapes, both marigold. The taller ones were swung from the spooner; the shorter for the sauce. There is at least one more known in each of these heights. One of the shorter examples sold for $2,000 in 1999; another for $5,000 in 2007. The taller vase was photographed while in the collection of Don Doyle; the shorter one is courtesy of Bob and Joan Anderson.
