A Little Thrifting

Gentle Friends, here are some things I found over the weekend....

 ... a transferware plate, a cream soup, and liner from Minton c. 1940 and a little hand colored transferware plate showing the Washington Memorial at Valley Forge....

... here's a better snap of the Napoleon Battle plate....

  2. I so enjoy your thrifting posts—not the least of which because they are an excellent education in classic and antique tablewares. I love it!

    Your ta-da moment silver polishing posts are also so satisfying! Would you consider making a tutorial post? I bought a children's bowl and plate set a couple of years ago, and though not black, it is on its way, for I am still hesitating to polish it for fear of damaging it/losing detail on the engraving (etching?).
