Before brother past away about 14 years ago he found this large old handmade wardrobe that someone had made by hand in a shop his friend owned. It had been converted with shelves and he called me to come look at it. We bought it straight home just to display ironstone.
I have bought just about every piece of ironstone I've ever come across. I've changed the arrangement of the cupboard many times and the collection has grown into additional cupboards and tables and mantels. On occasion I will sell a few pieces and I even have a few pieces packed away in boxes.
So in the next two weeks I'm going to go through the ironstone cupboard. Give it the good dusting that it could use and rearrange it for spring. Maybe add some bunnies and add a few pieces I haven't had time to display. There is joy to be found in staying at home.
Take care.
I am not sure what I am more in love with....your incredible ironstone collection or that amazing old cupboard. Yes, there is something about the simple honesty of the ironstone that is unequivocally timeless. I have a few old creamers, but that's it. No place to display. And, yes, a bunny here or there will be delightful! ~Robin~
ReplyDeleteyou have some lovely pieces. I have my grandmother's old ironstone pitcher that has a chipped spout that I display flowers in all summer on my screened porch.

So proud of your blog, I have been out of touch for a while with so much going on in my life and I was lost because of my illness but I'm stronger and I am here to tell you about a natural remedy that is guaranteed to make you wonder why your doctor didn't tell you about it. Then, on the other hand, it is pretty obvious why your doctor didn't, because that's not his job, is it? But, seriously, promise me you won't get too angry with your health practitioner, it's really not their fault. They can only practice what they're told to practice, right? When your health is at risk there's no time for Tom foolery, you've got to get down to the cause and nip it in the bud. So you've been suffering from painful gout attacks have you?
