Friday and Saturday Treasures

 
So,  I told you last week that I hit some really good sales.  Oh yeah!!
 
This is just a portion of what I found.  I'll tell you about some of them and get to the rest of them later in the week, OK?
 
Don't you love the little wooden hutch in the back?  It stands 13" tall and is 8" wide.  Cute little miniature.
 
 
I love this tin candleholder.  It is 18" tall and about 13" wide.  It was hot wired into a wall.  So, I'd have to have an electrician wire it if I use it.  It's really pretty tho.
 
 
In this view, there are some blue splatterware plates, a set of S&P shakers with red plastic tops, a set of six small white saucers with beautiful scalloped edges, two heavy glass ash trays, some doilies (of course) and some hankerchiefs.
 
 
I love this wooden box with the glass jars.  It measures 16" long by 4 1/2" wide.  Wouldn't it be great with herbs in it?
 
 
In this view, are some little dishes (more on those below), small white pitcher, cute clock with a bird on the top and various other things.
 
 
OK, these are the small white dishes I mentioned above.  There are six of them and they are 2 1/2" x 1 3/4".  So, they are tiny.  Anyone have an idea of what they are for? 
 
 
 
I found four of each of these.  Four plates and four soup bowls.  The plates are Anne Hathaway's Cottage and the bowls are Emm Court.  They are made by Myott Son and Co, Hanley, Shakespeare Land, made in England.
 
 
This gorgeous piece of crochet was in a plastic bag with the following note:
 
"Doily crocheted by Louise Rose (I think). 
Born 5-5-1892
Died 1-23-1989"
 
So, it is very old and just beautiful.
 
And last, but not least, for today are these charming Shamrock bowls.
 
 
I have told you that since my birthday is on St. Patrick's Day, I love to collect anything with shamrocks on it.  So, something to add to my collection. 
 
A lot of these items will be going on my Etsy shop later in the week.
 
Hope you enjoyed my outings.  I did.  It was so good just to be able to get out and get around without the snow and ice. 
 
Enjoy!
 
Judy

  2. I always love seeing your finds, Judy. I believe your little white bowls are ramekins. What are you going to do with the ashtrays? Love the shamrock bowls.

  4. I love miniature furniture, and that sweet wood hutch was quite a find! And the crochet work is extra-special with the enclosed note. The shamrock dishes will be perfect to use for your birthday dinner!

  7. Are those little white "dishes" saki cups? They are about the right size...other than that I don't know.
    LOVE that little hutch, Judy. It looks like one of those salesman's samples from years ago. xo Diana

  12. Wonderful finds! The plate in shape of flower is super cute, like the plates with houses on them, they are very beautiful. The clock is amazing, love this little bird on it.

  13. Nice finds! I also thought the hutch might be a salesman's sample.
    We went from one extreme to another here also - snow and ice end of last week, and high in 60's this week.

  14. We always called those little white bowls "pudding cups" because my mother used them to make pudding. I think they are called ramekins now.

  15. Good haul, Judy! Might those tiny dishes be salt cellars?

  19. You found so many nice things! I love that wall sconce you bought. Happy Birthday (early)! It's fun to have a birthday on a holiday isn't it? Mine is on Halloween. Everyone is usually in a celebratory mood so it makes birthdays more fun.

  25. Judy you have found some fantastic treasures there! Those dishes could be ramekins, or another idea flashed in my mind is a finger bowl (filled with water with lemon to wash your fingers while eating finger food). Take care xx

  27. I have 4 of the same Anne Hathaway plates and 4 smaller desert or salad plates trying to find value on them. Do you have any idea?
