Antique Dish


This is another object from my Gram’s house that I photographed over a year ago. This candy dish of sorts originally belonged to my Great Grandmother at one time. It’s amazing how it can still capture the eye and imagination.

A wonderful dish to have in your family. It goes very well with your last post.

This is a beautiful piece of glass art. I love having things that have been in my family for so many years. The craftsmanship is very different from today.

Maybe she could take this to the Antiques Road show and see if it's worth anything more than sentimental value! Very cool.

I need to start looking at my dishes more carefully! I love all of the old glassware from the past - as well as just about everything that is antique. I have some pretty depression glass dishes that I should try to photograph sometime.

You make extraordinary pictures..

More eye candy. It looks like it's reflecting something blue nearby. In any case; it's a nice picture.

That's just the type of dish one would expect to be found at someone's grandmother's house.

Very pretty, great patterns.

My Mom, Mother in Law, and Grandmothers all loved glass bowls and things like this. We have a couple of pretty items from them put in a safe place.
