Let me introduce you to a very unique site called Bluewitchceramics.com. In December of 2010 I did a review of their French Bull Dog Salt and Pepper Shakers. If you would like to read it please click here. Because I enjoyed the first review so well, I contacted them again to see if they would like to participate in another review. They kindly agreed and offered to send me an item of my choice to review. But, before I start telling you all about it, lets back track a little and tell you about their company. Bluewitchceramics.com is a family run and owned business, dedicated to providing hand crafted collectible pieces of art work to their customers. Art Schuller and sister- in- law Pomm Bunyakhet Madame Pomm) have ran this excellent business since 2007. Madame Pomm is a gifted artist that puts her creativity and talent into each piece, along with some help from other talented artists as well. She started out by making mugs and has expanded to making Salt & Pepper Shakers, Picture Holders, Banks, Key Chains, Ornaments, and Magnets. The majority of her creative pieces include dogs in all different breeds and colors. If you are shopping for mugs, she not only offers a wide variety of dog breeds, but also other animals, aquatic life, flowers, sports and more.
If you are a dog lover, and I am sure there are plenty of you out there, then this is definitely a site you will want to check out! I tried to review the Shiatsu Salt and Pepper Shakers, but they were currently out of stock, so I then decided upon a bank. Next, I had to choose exactly which one to review, but it was so hard since everything is basically equally as eye catching as the next. Each piece has it's very own personality, this is because each piece is hand painted. so no one piece is the same. They are definitely something that you will not come across in just any old store, which makes them even more unique.I really liked the Bull Terrior Bank -Tiger Decorated, but I couldn't resist the BULL DOG BANK RED COLLAR. My older sister use to always have bull dogs when we were growing up, and I just always thought they were an interesting breed. With their short stubby legs and droopy faces how could you resist them! The Bull Dog Bank arrived in pristine condition. I immediately noticed all of the detail that was put into this artistic piece of art work.
The studded red collar definitely sets off this bank and gives it a very unique edge! The Bull Dog bank makes the perfect size to save up for a little something. I have been using mine to save up for a coffee each week, and then once I empty it, I start saving for another one. It's kind of like my crazy coffee spending stash! Or, you could think of your pet and save up for doggie treats or pet bills.
The Bull Dog Bank fits quarters, nickels, pennies and dimes, so no matter what change you have it all fits. This bank looks perfect sitting on my mantle and definitely gets everyone talking. I think they would make a great gift for any dog lover, or one of those people that seem to have everything. It's hard not to find a breed you don't like, as they offer well over fifty breeds to choose from! Be sure to check out their site and find an item you will fall in love with too!
BUY IT: You can purchase a Bull Dog Bank Red Collar for $44.95, which is a great deal considering all of the hard work and detail put into this amazing product.
