• Stan Langtwait Shapes of Clay pottery hanging wolves plaque • Brown, gray, black & white ceramic • Vintage • No issues found: free of chips & cracks • 7 3/8" L x 6 5/8" W x 1/2" D • Signed on back • Made in Graham, Washington, USA • Display stand not included This hanging wall plaque featuring two, howling wolves is made of a mixture of clay and Mt. St. Helens ash! From the 1950s until 1980, Stan Langtwait used this substance to create pottery known as Shapes of Clay in Graham, Washington. The wolves are hand-colored in light brown, and there is an indentation in the back for hanging (display stand not included). From the brochure (not included): On May 18th, 1980, we Northwesterners experienced the awesome power of the Cascade Range when Mount St. Helens erupted with a force 500 times greater than the first atomic bomb. The top of the mountain blew off throwing 1,300 feet of the snow topped peak into the sky. Hot ash and cinder poured upwards by the millions of tons blanketing a large portion of eastern Washington, Idaho and Montana and turning day into night. We have taken this ash, blended it with our native clays, and produced our timeless treasures of the Northwest... from the kilns of Shapes of Clay.

FROM UNCLE VINNY was my mother’s creation. Since I was a child, she would give extra presents to family on holidays, things that she found at thrift stores and garage sales. These gifts were handpicked for the recipient, and we always enjoyed opening them. She would sign the tag from “Uncle Vinny”, after St. Vincent de Paul’s endearing nickname, St. Vinny’s. Uncle Vinny performed his gift-giving duties under my mother’s tutelage for 50 years. Some relatives have known his presence all their lives: one cousin grew up without ever learning the truth behind our second Santa Claus, and she reached adulthood believing that we had some strange, distant uncle who sent us used presents! Today, my family still occasionally takes up Uncle Vinny’s mantle, bestowing thrifted gifts to each other in his name. I carry on the tradition in my own way, reselling vintage treasures I find at the same places mom and I used to shop together. Uncle Vinny lives on. I hope Uncle Vinny has the perfect gift here for you!
