This is the pitcher my Grandma used for milk when she lived on the farm. They moved to town before I turned 10, so that was a long time ago. I use it now when I bring the lilacs into the house...
My hubby's Mom was Dutch with 9 kids. She used that and I being a Canadian loved all her Dutch windmills deco patterns. Even Dutch Delf plate. I have her one plate of Delft which is over 100 years old. She gave me it then her daughters when she was alive as she said her daughter would not take care of it as I would. The one daughter got the dutch clock. It is beautiful.
I keep it locked in a cabinet for safety the plate.
It is beautiful! You call it junk.
ReplyDeleteOh no. Ha-ha

Gamla vackra saker är kul att ha speciellt när man har en relation till det.

I'm so happy you could read my Dutch story this morning, now that I see your precious Dutch pitcher.
ReplyDeleteThat;s not rubbish - it's beautiful
ReplyDeleteIsn't that a treasure! I agree, keep it in a locked cabinet. There are things I want to set out but don't want to risk losing them to an accident.
ReplyDeleteIt's absolutely beautiful! What a special treasure. I know how happy you are to have it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice way to remember her!
