This is a replica of the Vassy homeplace in Gaffney,South Carolina. Dave and Becky Vassy bought the home and restored it. Dave’s great-grandfather bought the home in 1898. After the restoration they wanted a replica of it as it was originally. Here also are pictures that I used to reproduce it. I use all kinds of old photographs that the customer can find. Also the Vassy’s drew out the floor plan and put numbers on the photo’s that corresponded with detailed instructions on how to do that part of the house. Also click on more and you can see the different sides of the sculpture. I also have pictures of it while it was still wet clay and I was building it.

This sculpture was inspired by my husband and all his old junk he saves. He calls them his treasures. I also put an old Chevy truck under the old junk shed. Everything on this sculpture is made of earthenware clay and fired in a kiln.
