It looked like the mid-century mod flower made by syroco. The center of the clock was a clock.

If had known in advance she was going to place them in a yard sale, I would have snatched them up quickly, but alas, luck was not on my side.<br /><br />I literally break out in a fever when I see this stuff peering out at me at a yard sale, or an antique shop. I have an affinity for curvaceous things anyway, which is why I don't limit myself to just the Syroco brand, but also include Burwood, Homco, and Dart Ind. as well.<br /><br />I have friends and family who think my "hoarding" of these curved and gilded beauties is a bit nuts and eccentric -- which is fine by me, just so long as I can't ever be defined as normal! However, don't let them fool you, I've managed to "convert" one or two here and there, lol.D.R.

I have a collection of Syroco souvenir plates from all over the U.S. I started with the National Parks that I had visited, but it's expanded. I try to focus on places I have visited. I have 13 so far: Yellowstone, Yosemite, Mt Rushmore, California, Crater Lake, Grand Canyon, Pikes Peak Region, Colorado Springs, the Ozarks, Florida, and two more I haven't put up yet. And I just spotted one for the Great Smoky Mountains on e-bay. I have them on my walls. They sort of go with my Craftsman-style decor. I don't know any other Syroco collectors.Martha Murphyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02539396507098000692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3382483379988993785.post-11521586368723391872014-01-31T11:45:56.918-05:002014-01-31T11:45:56.918-05:00the rooster are fighting- they are fighting cocks,...the rooster are fighting- they are fighting cocks, somehow that idea caught on as a decorative element. we have 3 pair, love them! jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04158484355425580359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3382483379988993785.post-74737777999962119492014-01-16T21:16:47.457-05:002014-01-16T21:16:47.457-05:00I just came across your article and I appreciate y...I just came across your article and I appreciate your putting it out there. I was at a thrift shop today and found a set of matching wall hangings about 10" tall that is shaped like trees. Each one has two half round shelves attached. I got them for $6 and was looking for information. Thanks for doing this.Rosemary730https://www.blogger.com/profile/03349211966943403877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3382483379988993785.post-4056356880781082862013-05-31T18:02:57.125-04:002013-05-31T18:02:57.125-04:00I have a 2' high and 1' wide wall hanging ...I have a 2' high and 1' wide wall hanging depicting a lion hunt in the Black Forest of Germany. Horseback hunters in medieval garb are arrayed over a lion still fighting against their lances. <br />I was born in 1938 and it was on the wall of my parents' house in Rochester, Minnesota as far back as I can remember.<br />Now I have nowhere to store it and would be interested in finding a collector who would like it.<br />It's in perfect condition.

I have a set of Black Roosters like your gold ones. They have the same info on the back like yours showing they were from Syroco. My grandmother passed over 5 yrs ago and my roosters have just been sitting in my closet waiting to be dusted. I plan on hanging them in my dining room. I have always loved them. I think my grandmother got them from when her sister died. Anyway, I was just looking for history on them when I ran across your post!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3382483379988993785.post-9081974645445664712010-07-02T21:17:47.559-04:002010-07-02T21:17:47.559-04:00Great info on Syroco--just what I was searching fo...Great info on Syroco--just what I was searching for; thanks! :)Learning Spanish at 41https://www.blogger.com/profile/02452926460165283494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3382483379988993785.post-51354511885245427652008-12-13T20:28:00.000-05:002008-12-13T20:28:00.000-05:00That tie rack = AMAZING!!!
