    Hi Scott. I agree about the figurine overload since it's not my area of interest. However, I did find a pair of Meissen figurines at a thrift shop. They DID come home with me. Thanks for taking us with you.

    My father was both a mechanical engineer and a chemical engineer. In the late 70s/early 80s he bought a handheld Texas Instruments scientific calculator. Don't remember exact price, but it was around $700 or $800, which was very expensive then. He was so proud of it and it saved him hours of work! He would be totally amazed to know that now everyone can do scientific calcultions on a phone app. He would be 105 if still living today.

The Shell Peach Luster soup bowls came in 2 styles. Those were the rare flanged ones similar to RW flanged soup. I think you could have made decent money😊

    The elegant glass stem is definitely a lily of the valley. You can tell from the leaves just as much as the flower. With regards to polishing up the silver on your glass...... I used to work silver and spent a lot of money on various silver polishes. The best I've found to date is one called Peek. (can be purchased on Amazon or in Canadian Tire in Canada) It's a non abrasive cream that's easy to use, does no damage to surrounding materials, and wipes off clean, leaving an amazing shine that also protects from further tarnish. As a bonus, it works just as well at removing black utensil marks from coffee cups and Pyrex. Not abrasive like Barkeepers friend.

    I loved the 70's kitchens. The kitchens with bone colored floors looked washed out. Nakid ladies dancing are showing off their freedom from nasty girdles. I love the 20's because of the furniture, Art Deco, and the clothes. Also the interiors of the buildings were so classic with marble, and rich surfaces. Oh well thank you for taking us along on the shopping trip.

      Nasty, repressive, sexist girdles, Mr. Scott. Back before trans fats and corn syrup those women were tiny, very tiny! You are so right about most kitchen' s are in seventies colors. When l worked as an lnfearior designer l saw many sixties kitchens too. But l was working in the 80's, so that might have been why. All those shades of green and yellow just so hard to match. Ok enough of that. Thank you for Highlighting my comment!💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐥🐥🐥🐥🐥🐤🐤🐤🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀💚💚💚💚💚💚🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐤🐤🐤🐤🐤🐤🐥🐥🐥🐥🐥🐥🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🐤🐤🐥🐥🐤🐤🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣💚💚💚💚💚💚💚🐥🐥🐥🐥🐥🐥🐥

    In 1958 our home had coordinating turquoise GE appliances. The refrigerator/freezer was a three section wall mounted cabinet design.The stove was a counter top drop in model. The oven was separate and mounted into the kitchen cabinets. In 1983 I rented a carriage house with the same turquoise kitchen installation, including the turquoise metal cabinets. Then came the 1970s with avocado green, harvest gold, and two tone copper and brown. That is when true trauma was inflicted upon my color palette. I have never recovered. It is called post traumatic design disorder (PTDD).

    About re painting vintage items-
    I was thrifting in our local Salvation Army last month and I see this woman taking video of the shelves... I go over and start talking out loud about something on the shelf and she notices me- we chat for a few and she tells me she buys antiques and vintage items mostly ceramic pieces and re paints them to sell. I get it, that’s her hustle/ passion. But I did cry alil on the inside thinking of all those wonderful pieces being ruined 😕

    that is *not* lily of the valley. lily of the valley flowers are small and run along a stem. it looks a lot like snowdrops, but here's the kicker: snowdrops are bell shaped flowers *but* their stamen is not visible when looked at from the side. your flowers clearly have visible stamen when looked at from the side. i looked up natural flowers yesterday and could not find one like yours. perhaps the creator took artistic license and put stamens in where they don't exist in nature. :-)

    I'm wondering if the elegant silver plated teapot was used for an event (like wedding decor, or party scape) or for a play or something. I guess you could fairly easily remove that paint, since the teapot isn't that valuable anyway, you could try if you really liked it and just wanted it because of the form (I say "you," but, of course, I mean "someone") for personal home decor... or even to use as a teapot!

      I went to an auction once, out on a farm no less, and there were boxes of the stuff on the block. They didn't go for much.
      But it made me curious, and I borrowed a price guide from the library by the author Bud Hastin.
      It was the newest edition available, and after laughing myself to tears over the autobiographical introduction written entirely in the third person, my opinion hasn't changed much.

    I hate all manner of "fake old", antiquing, distressing, chalk paint etc.

    I really liked the Depression tid-bit tray, with the fleur de lis handle, but would have no use for it. Painting that silver plated coffee pot, with that disgusting chalk paint was criminal. I would've had to have bought it and stripped that mess off it, just to rescue it! The sterling overlay Depression plate is great!

    The green and silver plated dish just beautiful. The last glass with the brown stemware in the clear-cut top with the etched flower looks like a bleeding heart. . That glass is absolutely gorgeous! I would Have taken it home also. I can't for the life of me understand why everyone Chalk Paints everything vintage. I could somewhat understand some pieces that are totally damaged and there is no redeeming them. I'll give them that. Oh well to each his own.

    I feel the same way when I pick up Avon by mistake. 😄 My parent’s kitchen is still stuck in the 70’s with that orange and brown.

    I really like the old clear glass tumblers that have gold around the rim and a grape pattern white raised design. I have several and I see them all the time. I think I saw some on the shelf here. They are Bartlett Collins.
