A very nice example of a rolled-lip bouquet vase designed by Heinrich-Maria Müller for SAWA-KERAMIK and decorated with his Napoli décor. Produced entirely by hand, it is marked by hand on the base with the model and size numbers.


SAWA-KERAMIK was the label under which Sawa-Franz Schwaderlapp GmbH produced fine, artisanal, “klinker”-style ceramics beginning in 1951. Franz Schwaderlapp had founded his company as an abrasives factory in Ransbach-Baumbach in central western Germany in 1904, but he soon began producing unglazed flower containers at an associated pottery works. The program had an early success with a self-watering Jardiniere; its extension to high-end ornamental ceramics would happen only with the end of WWII.

Schwaderlapp's uncle, Heinrich-Maria Müller, joined his nephew's firm in 1951 as head designer in its newly established art department. He was responsible for the design of all forms and decorations at SAWA until he retired from the company in 1965. Many of the pots that were produced during this period were hand-turned and decorated by Müller himself.

SAWA offered three basic décor varieties, often noted with a single letter on the bottom of the object:

  • 'K' for kerbschnitt (notch-cut): the manual application of grooves in unbaked clay,
  • 'P' for plastischer kerbschnitt (plastic notch-cut): the application of cut-in designs using figural stamps, and
  • 'S' for sigilata (sealed): the application and burnishing, to a very high sheen, of a thin layer of slip as a top coat.

Often these methods were very labor-intensive and expensive to implement. The quality of execution was consistently high.

It can be noted here that klinker pottery takes its name from a particular sort of partially-vitrified brick, commonly referred to as “klinker” or “clinker,”—so-called because of the metallic sound produced when klinker bricks are struck together. Like its namesake brick, klinker pottery is hard-fired at unusually high temperatures. Typically hand-thrown, it is also often decorated or burnished by hand—and only partially colored, if at all, using special dyes. These production methods tend to make klinker items very water-resistant, and in most cases, waterproof, even without interior glazing. (Incidentally, being denser than normal bricks, klinkers provide relatively poor insulation. On the other hand, their hard surfaces make them frost-resistant, so they are well-suited for use in facades and as pavers. Early klinkers were simply the accidental byproducts of brickmaking.)

Sawa-Franz Schwaderlapp GmbH was family-owned until 1992. It appears to have been transferred to another owner of the same name, as one Heinrich Schwaderlapp was appointed liquidator of the company in 2000. It went out of business in 2004.


HEINRICH-MARIA MÜLLER (1892-1974) engaged in multiple professions before WWII, trying his hands at various artistic endeavors and even going to sea for a time. Shortly after the war, he took up work as a furniture salesman, but, in 1951, he settled at his nephew's firm, Sawa-Franz Schwaderlapp GmbH in Ransbach-Baumbach in central western Germany. There he was made head designer of the newly established art ceramics department, producing decorative pottery for the home under the name SAWA-KERAMIK. Müller designed all shapes and décors, modeled templates, and executed numerous pieces entirely by himself. Despite a wide variety of decorative influences, which were generally characterized by elaborate and carefully executed designs and ranged from animal representations of the Far East to abstract surface ornament, he managed to give all of his work a characteristic appearance. He ultimately retired from the company in 1965 at the age of 73, He died nine years later in 1974.

Pack's Promise was okay but not great
Format: Kindle
Pack's Promise was okay but not great. I won't recommend it to anyone that I know. PRO: * Very likable characters * Lots of steamy scenes that are written very well * The spelling and grammar are good * The punctuation is good with the exception of using hyphens instead of commas. Lots of hyphens. Lots and lots of hyphens. CON: * Almost no interactions with any characters outside of Madison and the pack * Nearly no plot. They meet, get together for a heat, agree to make it permanent, done * Quite a few typos such as extraneous words, missing words and words out of order THINGS TO KNOW: * More steamy scenes than storytelling * A lot of MM & MMM, some MFMM during heat

Fluffy and Nice Omegaverse
Format: Kindle
… this would have made 5 stars but for 2 reasons. A.) there were quite a few typos; misspelled words, missing quotations, “the his” mistakes, and various signs that maybe a proofread would do good. B.) the writing was quite textbook. Late blooming omega is struggling with her new self, finds a absurdly wealthy pack of alphas, every thing is almost insta-love but she resists, then decides to love herself and let everyone be happy. Rian was my favourite (obviously the author’s favourite too because he got the most page time) but I wish we could see more of his CEO side? He went to work maybe ONCE the entire time. Gray was supposed to be the “growly one” but he turned out to be puppy dog. Lucas was a genius brainiac doctor - but also super alpha with an aggressive hindbrain with a breeding k*nk?? And then there was no actual “breeding”?? Spice 3/5 - normally omegaverse books are super high on messy smut but this was tamer. Romance 3/5 - insta-love that was then resisted because of personal hangup’s Plot 2/5 - weird paced head hopping, showing the same scene from different POV’s that made me feel like it was 2 steps backward, 1 step forward. Humour 4/5 - there were a dozen lines that genuinely made me chuckle out loud Would have been five stars but the lack of proofreading and the predictable plot made me unable to get up to ADORED IT level - four stars is still and official ENJOYED IT, y’all. This isn’t a bad rating. The “Club Heat” has intriguing possibilities so I’m going to give the second one a shot.

Fantastic writing and non-stop action
Format: Kindle
This is a promising, fantastic beginning to what will be a 4-book series. Some readers may be content to read only the first 2 books, but I think you'll find that the story is so good that you'll want to keep reading books 3 and 4. Book 1 is about omega Elvana's introduction to the "Starling" brothers and their search for another missing person, Kelly. It's a bit of a rocky start, with deception and betrayal a key element. Hardly an auspicious beginning. Each member has their own path and purpose in the pack. Their interactions and the resulting narrative are so well-written that I found it difficult to put down. There is a cliffhanger that will have you reaching for book 2 as you finish, so make sure you have it on hand.

Fun read
Format: Kindle
I'm not really into mafia books but I love Roxy Collin's other series so I decided to give it a try. It had the same great romance, spice, swoon-worthy characters and exciting plot that are her signature. Arben was my favorite, although it was a bit sudden how quickly he changed from ignoring her to wanting to be pack. There were almost too many twists/layers of lies to keep track of but I'm looking forward to reading the other books. The only thing that detracted from the story for me was the need for a bit more proofreading. It was mentioned that Kelly is a female and male at different points, leading me to think she changed her mind at some point about the character's gender but didn't go back and edit it to align in all places. Like another reviewer pointed out, step siblings are different than half siblings. They are incorrectly referred to as step siblings because they (allegedly) share the same biological dad. There are a few other typos as well but those aren't a big deal.
