Vint Japan Flamingo Toothpick Holder or Pincushion
I originally thought this to be a toothpick holder but when you look,the hole is kind of offset and very deep so now I lean toward a pincushion.It is still,whatever the use,is a neat flamingo.It is in excellent condition and stamped Japan in black on the bottom.It is just over 3" tall.

Cool & Cute Plaid Armchair Pincushion & Holder
I have no idea who made this,if it is factory or home made but whichever it is very well done.I also do not know the age but figure it to be from about the 50's.It is a blue and tan plaid and the seat lifts up for storage of thread or whatever you wish.I do not think it was ever used as there are no pin holes anywhere.There is no damage but it is lightly soiled from age.The bottom looks to be a blue cotton material and the plaid also looks and feels cotton but I am guessing.There is some folding on the corners but it does not hurt the chair at all.This would even work for furniture for a Barbie doll or others of that size. Please note that there is a knife in under the seat to hold it up,nothing protrudes otherwise from the bottom of the seat. It is about 6 1/4" tall.

Vint Japan Half Doll For Pincushion
This is a beautiful piece which at first I thought was German but once I got her cleaned up I found her marked Japan. There are markings on the front also but I am not able to read them at all. She has stress cracks on the bottom rim,some roughness and one small chip on the bottom rim for sure. The only problem I can find on her upper portion is the black dot inside her nose on the right side which is in the glaze so it is a factory flaw,not damage. It is just over 2 1/2" tall.
