It was built long ago when a man wouldn't think of hiring out for work that he could do himself.

Maybe that's why it stands so proud though it's only made from humble rough-hewn wood, red brick and field stone.

And inside those aged walls—with the air deliciously cool and sweetly perfumed with the scent of tulips, daisies, mums and rich earth—you'll find the perfect place to dream the afternoon away on a summer's day.

Of course you won't be alone. For the potting shed happens to be the tabbies' favorite spot to curl up and unwind after a long morning of mousing and chasing butterflies.
You see, in their infinite feline wisdom, they know that the potting shed is a special place of renewal. For it's here that the life of the garden begins through love and tender care.

Now, when the sun is blazing high and everything slows to nature's own rhythmn, slip inside the potting shed of Dave Henderson's "Afternoon Serenity," the first plate in his new Summer's Sweet Pursuit collection. Then just relax in the joy of a sunbeam and dream.

The creation of the fine collector's plate you have just acquired and whose authenticity is certified by this document is the result of work by an international cadre of skilled artisans. After the plate art was created in the United States, a fine ceramic transfer, incorporating pigments carefully chosen to faithfully re-create the vibrant beauty of the artist's original, was created in France and Germany and permanently fired into the fine Japanese porcelain plate body at more than 1,460° Fahrenheit by talented craftsmen and craftswomen in the United States.
