Gentle Friends, out and about over the weekend I found a few fun things....
... a super cut glass and sterling overlay tray, an early transferware soup plate and a really nice pice of Limoges....
________________
You know what a sucker I am for cut glass and when there is some sterling involved I really can't resist. When I first saw this tray in a pile of other plates and trays I knew immediately what it was, I picked it up and saw the price was only $2.00 - I knew it was coming home with me.... here's what it looked like in the store and when I got it home.....
.... the thick applied silver decoration was totally black....
... with a lot of elbow grease and a little silver polish.....
... I ended up with a lovely "new" piece!!
