Whimsical Erphila Porcelain

I love just about anything shiny and red, and I found this little Erphila creamer the other day:




I think it is charming - I might keep it around the house for flowers.  I was looking into the company a little bit, but was unable to find a definitive answer as to when it was made.  While I was looking, however, I found this!

Isn't it charming!  I just love how the little kitty is peeking over the edge.  My cat does that to me whenever I take a bath...

I really love little animal knick knacks... I especially love this little green Erphila elephant:

This little guy is for sale at Twice Studios Etsy Shop

Apparently, Erphila company imported a lot of inexpensive and whimsical figural porcelain and pottery from Czechoslovakia and elsewhere in Europe during the first half of the 1900's.   I'll be on the lookout for more!

  2. Oh! I don't know anything about Erphila, either, but I inherited two sweet little measuring pitchers like yours; one is green and one is blue and they are polka-dotted. I was excited to see yours!
