Antonio Vitali Family

I love this family. The way each family member fits into a space left by another is beautiful. Swiss designer Antonio Vitali made these for Creative Playthings.

  1. I've always wanted this Vitali set, amazing find on your Bojesen Tim Dog. If I only had a lot of money to spend...http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l2557&rt=nc&nma=true&item=170627070357&si=iz40ArLXzSanlDW8EWfLxM0AL3w%253D&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT

  2. I also saw the beautiful Vitali cat, far too expensive for me. My Vitali family was also a great ebay find, It cost me next to nothing. I think it was listed as "carved wooden figurines". I enjoy looking at what is on offer with different word combinations. I usually come up with nothing but sometimes I'm lucky!
    Beautiful design shouts above the mundain.
    If you like Hans Bolling's "Pessimist" one just passed without a bid http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260766013631&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_500wt_1156.Not my favourite Bolling . I am pretty sure you could still get it for $4.99. I thought about it but customs may have held onto it [Fur is a customs risk to Australia].
    I like your style and have enjoyed your blog.

  5. hey... i didn't know how else to contact you but I know very little about Antonio Vitali and I believe I may have stumbled upon a bull/ calf set. They aren't in the best shape but I'd like to email you the pics so you can take a look. If anything, you can go through my contact page at vintagescapes.blogspot.com (formerly wallesrepository.blogspot.com)

    Thanks!
