Be still my heart!
This pretty little dish caught my eye right away.
C.F. Monroe decorated Opal Ware in a variety of forms.
This is one of my favorites!
This 19th Century hand painted Wavecrest dresser jar / pin box is decorated with a
a sweet peach floral design with raised enamel accents.
Oh my, you can feel the little accents.
It also has a very delicate translucent green tint in the opal glass
on the blown out shell design portion.
Love it!
Aww...it's the little things~
Isn't it?
Stay warm and take care!
you are such a girlie girl! :)
ReplyDeleteMiss Nancy- you have beautiful things.
ReplyDeleteSigh...
But I am NOT ever surprised by that.
I hope you are warm and have your socks on!
