Meant to take and post this last night, but was tired and went to bed instead.
When we were first married, I admired a little bowl that my mother in law had in this pattern of green depression glass. She gave it to me and then proceeded to give me more as she found it while going around to antique and collectible stores. So I have five or six of that small size, these larger ones you see on the left, some small desert plates and a number of serving pieces. I really ought to get them out and use them more often.
i love depression glasses. i had an antique set from an aunt, but sadly, i had to send back my set to the old country to my niece as the next keeper. as she is herself childless, wonder who would inherit them? these maybe worth a lot of moolah!
Depression glass is so pretty. But I like my dishwasher and my microwave, so a bit impractical for me for everyday use. Perhaps that's why you don't use them any more often than you do.
