| There was a large serving platter that I thought made a fun dinner plate....for a hearty eater! |
 |
| There were 3 soup/salad bowls, 4 dinner plates, 5 dessert plates, and 1 saucer....no cups. |
 |
| The floral pattern is by Homer Laughlin...soft pinks, blues, and lavender. Since there weren't any cups, I am using some vintage coffee cups that belonged to my mother. Back in the late 60's she kept the books for a local restaurant. These were the coffee cups they used....I also have some of the dinner plates and saucers to match. |
 |
| One pretty serving bowl .... |
 |
| and I thought this teapot that I already had was a pretty good match to the dishes. |
 |
| The auction had a whole table of mismatched dishes and I chose these for $7.50. |
They are so pretty! And you got them for a steal!

What a delightful tablescape you have presented with your charming auction dishes.
ReplyDeleteSp lovely. Pretty dishes remind me of another time, when life was slower and pretty mattered. We've reverted to ever-functional Fiesta, but I do miss the elegance of china.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great deal! These are lovely. Jennifer

Very pretty, lucky you to have been able to pick them up. Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteHey Penny,I always love to visit with you.Lovely as always great find on those dishes.Hope to here from you again soon,Hugs Peggy
ReplyDeleteLovely dishes! You did well. The mark means that they were made in March of 1945 in the Newell plant #6 (Newell, West Virginia). I am pretty sure this is the Republic shape. The patternes were usually given a number, not a name, although there are exceptions. Also many of the same decals were used on different shapes. Wonderful dishes at a great price! I know you will enjoy them.
ReplyDeletePenny it is all so pretty and feminine, I love it. Thank you for joining in the fun at the Thursday Favorite Things hop xo
