There's something about vintage transferware in a cupboard or cabinet.
The details and designs of the old elegant pieces are so charming.
My love affaire with transferware began about 10 years ago when I stumbled
upon a set of English Scenery in red at a yard sale.
I was in love instantly!
Since then,
I have picked up a piece here or there when finding them at flea markets or thrift stores
and added to the collection.
I have most of the red in my kitchen and it is probably my favorite
but I also have a charming collection of green transferware that I got from a friend several years back.
She had been collecting green pieces for several years & decided that she wanted a change.
Her collection was gorgeous and she had some really beautiful substantial pieces in it.
We swapped things for it actually -
she asked if I would be interested in trading the transferware
for a couple things I was selling.
I absolutely love the gorgeous tureens she had collected-
so beautiful!
She had several platters and tureens as well as plates
and bowls and serving pieces.
I used to have the green displayed in the tall, dark and handsome cupboard
;)
in the living room but just last week I was changing the look around a bit in there
and moved it to another piece that I have in my bedroom.
More on that piece and the rest of the collection soon~
