I’m so glad to see a fellow ironstone collector who also shares my passion for them! I’ve collected antique ironstone for 25 years and I’m still in love with them to this day. I have my eyes on a cake stand and a foot bath nowadays. They’re the holy grail for all serious antique ironstone collectors, Rajiv! So keep your eyes open for them!
I love every single video you make. Whether I’m familiar or unfamiliar with the things/art you mention never seems to matter - I wind up feeling passionate about it by the end of your video.
Completely agree. Rajiv has given me so many ideas, so much hope, and encouragement in that wanting everything in your home to be special (to you) and beautiful is not ridiculous.
Being alive is the special occasion! Use your treasures every day 😊 Rajiv, your ironstone is beautiful. I am in love with the pitcher... Thank you for another grand video!
This brought back memories of my grandmothers love of ironstone. She didn’t have much of it but they were her treasures. I have seen people take 40 volume hydrogen peroxide and submerge the ceramic in an enamel broiler and heat in the oven to remove stains more quickly than a cold soak. Bleach can leach in under the glaze and cause flaking to the surface and should be avoided. This was fun to watch-thanks Rajiv!
I know someone who buys hydrogen peroxide paste /cream (in Amazon) and applies it to ironstone and leaves it overnight to whiten it. (Also very good for whitening pieces of plastic that are yellowish because of time/sun damage)
When I saw the topic was ironstone, I stopped right in the middle of my Amazon order 😅 I adore ironstone, especially when it's hotelware or restaurantware. I'd like to get some more "white" pieces, but I LOVE the crazing and some discoloration lol. I love it when you can see the age and the use. I find these speak to me the most. My absolute favorite piece is a square bowl, fluted on the outside, with a slight pedestal. And I got it for $4 at a thrift store. I could write poetry for that bowl!! ❤️
I love your practical approach to collecting and the way it seamlessly intertwines with your love of the aesthetics. Also, the wagon imitation was hilarious 😂
Rajiv, the reverence you hold for your items is inspiring! I use fine China I found from a thrift store for my usual dish ware. I show it love by using these pieces that had definitely been donated unused. My friends are always so scared to use them when they come over, but the use it how it’s loved.
The music is pleasing and the background colors looks so lovely with the calming white and pops of color from the orchids. Just all out gorgeous Rajiv.
Rajiv, you’ve also highlighted the Ironstone with all of your beautiful variations of white (creams and ivories) in your walls, flower vase and curtains. So pleasing to the eye.
I have three Ironstone plates that I absolutely love and use to eat on regularly. One has bad crazing, the other two are nearly perfect. I had no idea that they were Ironstone until I saw this video and noticed the marks underneath. I casually collect antique or handmade dishes, but from thrift stores usually. My plates were 99 cents for all three. Rajiv's collection is so beautiful.
When Martha Stewart introduced antique ironstone in her show some 20 years ago, she literally brought up its prices because her followers rushed out to hunt them down!
This reminds me of how paste stones were used in jewelry in the 17/1800s, the cuts and designs were just as beautiful as cut gemstones, yet made to be affordable and very durable. I didn’t know much about ironstone, it’s so beautiful - thanks for sharing!
I'm gaga over you. Love your channel. I first encountered you when you featured your hallway. I have always loved and collected and sold ironstone as a dealer. Its simple the color is soft and pleasing. All crazed, even chipped and discolored pieces can be decorative or repurposed. Platters are my favorite. Thank you.
I love your appreciation for vintage and antique pieces. The White Ironstone China Association has compiled a wonderful reference The Illustrated Guide of White Ironstone China from A to Z. It’s so valuable for the collector especially if you’re interested in researching the history, shapes and different potters. Happy hunting!
I would LOVE to see you set a table with your china, silverware, glassware and one of your glorious flower arrangements! Maybe even show how you cook something you would serve…..please, please kind sir!
I've been collecting ironstone since the 70's when I received a piece that belonged to my great grandmother from the 1880's. I have been in love ever since.
Rajiv, you manage to make potentially boring subjects mesmerizing!! I learn a lot from you and it is such a treat in my day when I realize you have uploaded a new video.👍
Here I am suffering through a cold, wishing I could find a wonderful video to watch. Low and behold you answered my wish Rajiv ❤ You speak to my soul. I love how you enjoy life. Thank you 🤗 Happy Holidays!
I am not sure if I am corect but I always thought the eradesant shine to older English Ironstone was that it was fired in coal ..Lets ask someone in the 5 towns of SToke on Trent :) I am sure they were fired in bungs (towers) of saggers .Saggers are protective containers that stack in the kilns or a kind of "KIln Furnature ... In the design work they started on paper but then the pot was sculpted and the mastery was in that work ..Then molds were made of the sculpted pot and the shape could be mass produced leaving a small team with mastery and a larger group with good skill finishing the making of the pots .. On the glazing and firing side the skill level still took a lifetime to keep the production ahead of the surprises altering materials and changing conditions always bring to a pottery kiln ... A visit to the SToke museum may be in order ...
Thanks, Master Wolff! I knew you'd have some idea of how these were fired. This is the color that I'd like to mimic in the bowls I'm making in Rhode Island.
Indeed.. it almost looks modern. I love it too. I’d not known anything about it before watching your video. I admire you for using all of it instead of just displaying it on a shelf. ❤
Definitely concur on the recommendation to collect with a friend if you happen to love the same thing... it deepens the everyday joy. And same for seeing things in a museum, which really ups the inspiration quotient. My best friend and I have been collecting Russell Wright Iroquois china for over 15 years, and I use it every day. Each time I reach for a plate or bowl, I am happier than the moment before. Thanks for sharing all your inspirations, Rajiv!
Beautiful collection, "some kind of vase" could be used to preserve cherries in vinegar, the hollow at the top prevents them from rising, you close it with a very thin white cotton and a cork cover
I can confirm Rajiv's thought process on how to spot genuine ironstone as I was just at the Round Top Antique Fair last month and that blue undertone is so obvious now! Thanks so much to Rajiv and his informational channel for helping me on this front. I'm happy to report I purchased my first pieces and we have a trip planned to the English countryside in the fall where i do plan to come back with more pieces even if i have to ship them back home because they are too bulky for my suitcases!
Whenever I see you have a new video. I get so happy. It’s like me saying educate me. I have learned so much from you and I have been antiquing all my life.
the pitcher is just the quintessential shape of a pitcher! i love it so much. a long time ago now, when i was living in and repairing the house i grew up in.. without hardly any money unfortunately, i was collecting small items just to get by for everyday use, a mug, a plate. didn't have much to spend was scrounging for every little thing, i found a small ironstone plate in a local antique store. there was something lovely about it, the color, the simplicity. it was stamped ironstone on the reverse and was just a couple of dollars, so i took it home. sadly don't have it any more though i wish i did, but this video reminded me of home for just a little while.
Lovely collection! I would like to say that your closeups are not close enough to see the details you discuss like crazing and back stamps. Thank you.😊
Lovely! My favourite ceramics are Thomas white China. I inherited my parents wedding set and we use it every day. The simplicity of the design makes my heart sing, it has an impossibly pure form
I love ironstone but I don't collect it, I love early American 1700's -1800's.However listening to and seeing these pieces I thought how beautiful it would be to set a dinner table amongst all the old wooden patina pieces I have curated.You have curated beautiful collection.
I collect English ironstone too but with colors and patterns and much more detailed.I have several beautiful pitchers with basins,a few gravy boats,one with bottom dish,a creamer or two and most likely a few more pieces in my antique cabinets.
Rajiv, i can't decide on whether or not having beautiful things would be my style of life. Honestly, you knida make me think it is not, but I still love watching you and your beautiful things.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful collection! The quivering“You’re coming home with me!” is the best feeling while thrifting! I try to enjoy my treasured finds as often as possible. It makes a mundane day so much brighter!
Love to watch you with treasures. Collecting antiques and vintage is my passion and I hope to rarely purchase new. Recycling is and great reason but the quality is everything. Love your channel.
I love ironstone. Actually, I am obsessed with dishes. I have six sets, all but one are incomplete so I have variety almost everyday. My husband and I prefer our white china best. It's like the little black dress of dishes. It never gets boring. You can easily give it a new look with different flatware (I also have multiple patterns) and/or different cloth napkins and placemats. I have a corner cabinet that is filled with white china accessories (not just ironstone, but Juliska signature pieces).
Drop your playlist! I know you have some Sri Lanka gems and more! I’m definitely cooking the curry ! I know this isn’t the video but I’m watching on my tv and writing this on my phone 😂 love your content thank you for showing us your passion
I just discovered your account after watching you in the hgtv TH-cam video. Your love for these treasures is so lovely to witness and I feel like k have the same excitement - the difference is that I don’t know anything about this stuff! Looking forward to learning from your channel :)
Hi... I have very detailed iron stone collection and I tried to give it as a gift 🎁 to my supervisor years ago and she didn't accept it 😭 and I was disappointed because I think 🤔 she didn't know what it was so I ended up with it and it's in my dinning room hutch today... So I have my finished collection and... Nobody appreciates these things because it's so beautiful but... IDK 😐... I love it so I'm right along with you my twin 👍
Lovely collection. I’d really like to see you put the orchid arrangement together AND see how you water it without having to completely disassemble it.
I love your practical way of approaching collecting! Your videos have been inspiring me to use my lovely things when I can, and this has really good advice for some of the stuff I would like to collect when I am in my own space
@@kellymcdaniel6272 Yes, my first marriage did not last either but the dishes are still lovely...I had the brown set...my Thanksgiving Table was really beautiful with that huge Turkey Platter...at that time the platter alone was $85.00 in 1980. I have all the serving pieces and enough for 24 people...like a double set...thanks for sharing...my husband DID NOT appreciate such things as I did and still do...he was a degenerate...
Look at that lovely orchid display back behind you… ☺️ ~I watched you do that ~ 💕💜💕 Beautiful music in this video!! And, of course, you’ve sparked a new interest in iron stone, noticing artful design, pulling back out some of Mamaw’s kitchen items gifted to me. 🥰
Over the holidays, I bought a Victorian stone vase/jar in a UK small town called Winchester, and, immediately thought of Rajiv lol 😂 thought “he’d be so proud!”
I'm convinced Rajiv is a cute woodland sprite taking occasional breaks from enchanting forests to school us on life's beauty.
😂❤😊 very well said
👏👏👏
Absolutely!

I have my eyes on a cake stand and a foot bath nowadays. They’re the holy grail for all serious antique ironstone collectors, Rajiv! So keep your eyes open for them!
Ive been collecting too but curious about the brand/studios that produced them. Any takers?
I love every single video you make.
Whether I’m familiar or unfamiliar with the things/art you mention never seems to matter -
I wind up feeling passionate about it by the end of your video.
Completely agree. Rajiv has given me so many ideas, so much hope, and encouragement in that wanting everything in your home to be special (to you) and beautiful is not ridiculous.
Being alive is the special occasion! Use your treasures every day 😊
Rajiv, your ironstone is beautiful. I am in love with the pitcher... Thank you for another grand video!
Yes, the pitcher is absolutely gorgeous.
I will remember this. "Being alive is the special occasion." Thank you.
I almost cried hearing you describe the beauty of the pitcher.
Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! Use your collections! Don’t just lock them up in a glass cabinet. Enjoy them and bring a little bit of beauty into everyday life
Thanks Rajiv,I use all white china (not ironstone) and dress it up with my grandmother's hand painted pieces.
This brought back memories of my grandmothers love of ironstone. She didn’t have much of it but they were her treasures. I have seen people take 40 volume hydrogen peroxide and submerge the ceramic in an enamel broiler and heat in the oven to remove stains more quickly than a cold soak. Bleach can leach in under the glaze and cause flaking to the surface and should be avoided. This was fun to watch-thanks Rajiv!
Thanks so much for the oven tip!
I know someone who buys hydrogen peroxide paste /cream (in Amazon) and applies it to ironstone and leaves it overnight to whiten it. (Also very good for whitening pieces of plastic that are yellowish because of time/sun damage)

„It would go gakakagakagakaka all over the country..“ Rajiv love this video ❤️😁
I so appreciate the way you share and educate on the things you love. Your authenticity is your greatest asset. 💞
I love your practical approach to collecting and the way it seamlessly intertwines with your love of the aesthetics. Also, the wagon imitation was hilarious 😂
Rajiv, the reverence you hold for your items is inspiring! I use fine China I found from a thrift store for my usual dish ware. I show it love by using these pieces that had definitely been donated unused. My friends are always so scared to use them when they come over, but the use it how it’s loved.
I’m about to do the same, I have my eye on a Royal Doulton 45 piece bone china set for $120. I will use them as my daily set. 🇨🇦
I like the fact that you use the items that you collect. You have some really impressive pieces. Thanks for sharing!!!!!
Awe...you're speaking my language, Johnson Brothers, stoneware, transferware...TEA PARTY!!!! Love this!
The music is pleasing and the background colors looks so lovely with the calming white and pops of color from the orchids. Just all out gorgeous Rajiv.
Rajiv, you’ve also highlighted the Ironstone with all of your beautiful variations of white (creams and ivories) in your walls, flower vase and curtains. So pleasing to the eye.
We all want to see a table set out with some of your Ironstone and one of your lovely flower arrangements.

Lol

Can we talk about how well the colour of the shirt goes with the gold bracelets?! I am mesmerized. 😍
I would LOVE to see you set a table with your china, silverware, glassware and one of your glorious flower arrangements! Maybe even show how you cook something you would serve…..please, please kind sir!
he does have a video on this subject with HGTV!

I need to relax before bed. I don’t care too much about collecting, but I love watching Rajiv do anything.

😊love them
I loved the way you imitated the rattling of the crockery in the wagons 😂❤
My happy place: embedded In-between Rajiv’s iron stone collection
The color reminds me of vintage milk glass, which happens to be an obsession I caught from a friend who collects it.
I am not an antique collector. However your video is very informative and interesting even for someone who is not a collector. 🤗
please consider more videos on antiques & collecting..
Most kids have monsters under their beds, but Rajiv had ironstone and silver cutlery 😂
Indeed.. it almost looks modern. I love it too. I’d not known anything about it before watching your video. I admire you for using all of it instead of just displaying it on a shelf. ❤

Except when both of you want the same piece, lol!
I like that you use your iron stone and not let it collect dust. Beautiful collection.
Gah-gah-gah-gah-gh-gh-gh-gah and then arrive unbroken. Love love love this!!!
It's simple yet very elegant.
Elegance, to the eye and touch. Thank you, for educating us. Your videos, are educational and inspiring Rajiv❤
Love that piece behind you with flowers displayed in it poised on that pedestal, very cool looking
Thank you! There's a video on my channel on how I made that orchid arrangement!
I collect pottery and I love eating off of it everyday. It makes the food taste better, and I love looking at it.
Beautiful collection, "some kind of vase" could be used to preserve cherries in vinegar, the hollow at the top prevents them from rising, you close it with a very thin white cotton and a cork cover
Yes! I love Ironstone. Your pieces are beautiful. And the hunt is the best part. I'm still hunting. Thanks for the video,🙌🏽🫶🏾🥰
Good Morning,
I love your ironstone collection I can tell you love using them thanks for sharing.
💕💕💕💕
I never saw anyone describe a jug with such poetry and enjoyment ❤❤
Its always so great and cheerful to see Rajiv's new video pop up, first thing in my TH-cam feed. Always.
I wish I could feel this way about one thing in my life, the way he feels about all his possessions. It’s inspiring.

Such a lovely collection. You do have a remarkable ability to find the beauty in everyday items. Thank you!
Am a big fan of your videos Rajiv ..n they inspire me to clean and organise..plz do fridge organisation and bathroom org video ..plzzzz

Can’t imagine modern plastic plates and dishes lasting 200 years and remaining in pristine condition.
Lovely! My favourite ceramics are Thomas white China. I inherited my parents wedding set and we use it every day. The simplicity of the design makes my heart sing, it has an impossibly pure form

This is my favorite channel!

What joy...
It is such joy watching you talk about objects you love.
I l(extra) love it when you talk about the things you learned at Pioneer Village
Now I wanna hear the story about the silver and see it, too! Beautiful collection.
Love your approach to collecting. You find it, love it but also use it - perfect!
Love to watch you with treasures. Collecting antiques and vintage is my passion and I hope to rarely purchase new. Recycling is and great reason but the quality is everything. Love your channel.

The silver shovel in your sugar pot is a spoon for ice cream. The edge can be”cut” a very cold ice cream. My silver cutlery has similar ones.
I love the white ironstone but I also like the brownish ones that can be used at Thanksgiving with my autumnal tones.
I just discovered your account after watching you in the hgtv TH-cam video. Your love for these treasures is so lovely to witness and I feel like k have the same excitement - the difference is that I don’t know anything about this stuff! Looking forward to learning from your channel :)
Rajiv, you are officially the perfect man🏆
Thank you for the video. I will start looking for Ironstone to collect.
It's so nice to watch and so good to use your items ❤❤thank you for sharing 🎉🎉
Hi Rajiv
Thank you for sharing all of your knowledge with us. I enjoy ALL of your videos. Very Grateful❤😊😊
My sister and I recently found a tall ironstone pitcher in llano Texas. We were thrilled and had to drop you a note. 13:29
Rajiv, you are a beautiful soul. Thank you for your thoughtful content.
Thank you for watching!

So I have my finished collection and... Nobody appreciates these things because it's so beautiful but... IDK 😐... I love it so I'm right along with you my twin 👍
I collect ironstone. I love it, also. I have a pitcher with the ‘crazing’, that I adore…its my oldest piece.
Lovely collection. I’d really like to see you put the orchid arrangement together AND see how you water it without having to completely disassemble it.
Last week's video on my channel shows how I put that arrangement together ;-)
Rajiv, thank you for all the tips about Ironestone! I was inspired by you and purchased my first pieces this past weekend!
Jean
Thank you, Rajiv, for your teachings and your joy. Have a nice sunday!
I love your practical way of approaching collecting! Your videos have been inspiring me to use my lovely things when I can, and this has really good advice for some of the stuff I would like to collect when I am in my own space
Thank you... I love ironstone as well...I have complete set of Johnson Brothers Heritage Hall...
I do too! It’s the only thing that survived my first marriage😂
@@kellymcdaniel6272 Yes, my first marriage did not last either but the dishes are still lovely...I had the brown set...my Thanksgiving Table was really beautiful with that huge Turkey Platter...at that time the platter alone was $85.00 in 1980.

Look at that lovely orchid display back behind you… ☺️ ~I watched you do that ~ 💕💜💕 Beautiful music in this video!! And, of course, you’ve sparked a new interest in iron stone, noticing artful design, pulling back out some of Mamaw’s kitchen items gifted to me. 🥰
So precious! I have none, but now I'm intrigued.
Over the holidays, I bought a Victorian stone vase/jar in a UK small town called Winchester, and, immediately thought of Rajiv lol 😂 thought “he’d be so proud!”
Great Video!!!
Can you do a video on your bathroom???? Some of your Ironstone pieces were from your Bathroom, great ideas!
Love your videos.. I only wish we could see things more up close when you are trying to show them. 🙂
Kevin G energy in this channel with you nerding out with us about all the amazing things you’re interested in!
Rajiv💜you are such a multi- talented, lovely person☯️you make my heart HAPPY- thank you for that. Greetings from Mallorca .
