Before moving on to other pieces in our collection, I thought I might
show you a massive Capodimonte centrepiece bowl which we found last
summer at the Cheshire Cat Gallery in Raleigh, NC. The same bowl on eBay is described as: "A
stunning cherub or muses figural (sic) vintage Capodimonte centrepiece
fruit bowl ... about 50 to 70 years old, signed on the bottom, all
hand-painted." Of course, we did not purchase this bowl just because it was a Capodimonte, but because, front and centre, there is a figure with red hair playing on her frame drum.

Roadie's Blog
I am Bob, Betty Lynn's partner and Roadie. When she holds a drumming workshop, I do the driving, set up the drums, make sure the PowerPoint is working, and then sort of disappear. As a hobby, I have taken to "antiquing" in the vicinity, looking for figurines and other pieces depicting frame drummers. Sometimes I am lucky, many times I am not, but as time passes our collection slowly grows. This blog, in the coming weeks, will share some of our finds with you. Perhaps you will share some of yours with us.
