| I found tea cups and pots in my stash that have a very similar pattern. |
 |
| I decided to do a tablescape in the formal dining room with my new treasures...I forgot to take a picture of the back of the dishes but they are marked Wawel Poland....and they are the pompadour rose pattern |
 |
| I thought it would be fun to cover two of the plates with silver lids. (to keep the food warm..,,,lol) |
 |
| I gathered up lots of vintage silverware to make the place settings interesting... |
 |
| I decorated the buffet in a rose theme to match the new dishes... |
 |
| Here are some of the bone plates that were in the box... |
 |
| The scales are balancing tea cups and saucers... |
 |
| My mother left me lots of beautiful rose serving bowls... |
 |
| Remember the box of tea cups and saucer that I showed you in an earlier post that came from the same auction? I displayed some of them on a french drying rack... |
 |
| On the left is the spring tablescape ....and on the right is the new one. |
 |
| I bought fresh roses for the tablescape... |
 |
| There must be a spoon here for any and everything you might want to eat.... |
 |
| An assortment of forks.... |

Wonderful tablescape. I can't believe all those dishes you found. Amazing collection. What fun to go to a sale like that! xo Diana
ReplyDeleteI love them! My name is Rose so am partial to rose themed things!
ReplyDeleteMy middle name is! I love roses!
DeleteMa che brava Penny!Sei riuscita a sistemare tutte quelle tazze su quello stendino francese.Stanno benissimo!Tutto bello e abbinato sui mobili e sulla tavola deliziosa!Baci,Rosetta
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful collection!!! Lucky you - the table looks gorgeous :)
ReplyDeleteXOX
These rose designed dishes are lovely. The price awesome! Good find....
ReplyDeletePenny,
ReplyDeleteThe pattern on the dishes is called moss Rose and I have my Dining Room hutch full of it. The ones that I have collected have the "Made in Japan" on the bottom. This pattern was quite popular in the 40's and 50's and was produced by many countries and many companies. The ones I have tend more toward burgundy rather than pink. $10 for the box was , indeed, a steal!!
Your tablescape is beautiful. Love all your silverware and all the other tea pots and other pieces!!
I am convinced that you have far more collections that I would ever have room for!!
LOL!
Congrats on such a fantastic purchase!!
Hugs,
Deb

ReplyDeleteGood Evening Penny, My word, you managed to buy a wonderful selection of china and I cannot believe the price you paid for them.

The silver cutlery is such a wonderful find.... I really think, you found some wonderful treasures.

Penny I loved the Rose Dishes, but I especially loved the Rose Bowls from your Mom, the one on the right hand side of the picture stole my heart! A great display! ♥

ReplyDeletePenny, your new dishes set a lovely table. What a wonderful buy!
ReplyDeleteSheer delight! I often use bone dishes for bread plates, they conserve space, and they are always a hit with guests. Love the teacups on the French drying rack and on the scales...so charming. You've created a beautiful canvas with your wonderful auction treasures. Thanks for inviting us for a peak. Cherry Kay
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful haul from the auction! Love the silver domes on your plates!
ReplyDeleteUnbelievable, how soon can I get to an auction?! You have a beautiful dining room, too, and those pink roses dishes are perfect. You should send those photos in to that magazine that is all about tea and tablesettings, I think it's called Tea Time - seriously - they need to feature you! So glad I saw this. Take care
ReplyDeleteHow sweet! I need to start going to auctions....lol
ReplyDeleteWow oh wow what a deal on those gorgeous plates!

I just love it when I get great deals at auction. So much fun. Yours are so beautiful and the lovely lady must have loved roses too. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteBoy, did you find some great things. Did you say the cups and saucers you matched up? They look perfect together. I love all the ruffles too. Very girly. I love the idea of the tea cups and saucers on the scale too.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful dishes Penny! Thanks for sharing them this week :)
ReplyDeleteYou are so lucky to have ALL those dishes. I love the pink goblets you used with them in your tablescape. I'm nearly 65 years old and still have my two tea sets from my childhood, one of which is the Moss Rose pattern. I would love to come upon such a deal as you did.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful table setting and what a deal on your new Rose dishes. Just lovely.
ReplyDeleteOh Penny, you did fabulous at this auction! What a find! Your new pretties look so romantic on your lovely table! Your entire room says "romance"!
