I showed you the gravy boat and plate that came home with me the other week. Well, not long after, the rest of great-grandma's treasures came home with me too
Nothing is a full set. There's six plates, three bowls, two side plates.... but I love them all. One of my earliest memories is of eating black cherry ice cream out of the rose covered bowls in great-grandmother's apartment.
Most of the china is by Johnson Brothers from England, but a few of the pieces are from closer to home
Like these pretty bowls.
Love that!
And there were these two little pieces
They seem a bit big to be creamers, but a little small for gravy boats.... but they are going to be part of the gravy server collection now!
Everything needs a good wash, but there's enough pieces to serve Dave and I on special occasions. I think it will all look so lovely on his grandma's table!
What wonderful keepsakes for you!
ReplyDeleteThe one on the bottom middle came in laundry detergent. My grandma had them too. All I have is a big pitcher.
ReplyDeleteAnd even more gravy type boats :o)
ReplyDeleteOh...they are treasures! I love mismatched china on the table. Each one has a story to tell.
ReplyDeleteThose are lovely! :)
