The lustre Royal Winton Condiment set and the Chintz cups and saucers are from my 'earlier' collectibles finds. I have a great fondness for Royal Winton but like Donna of Distressed Donna Down Home I am slowly letting go of some of my collections.
Below. The top cup and saucer and tea plate is Lord Nelson Marina. The cup and saucer on the lower left is James Kent and the cup and saucer on the right is Royal Winton.
This little chintz nut dish is Florita by James Kent.
The inquisitive Royal Dux Pink and Grey Parrot joined the parade too.
The salt and peppers are 'new' additions to my collectibles and I know they will slowly leave for new homes. The ones below are ready for my booths.
These 1940/50's little salt and peppers were carefully cleaned (always a chance that some are cold painted). DH bought about 200 of the little dears, all mint in their little brown cardboard boxes. They were from a 1970 estate sale that stalled until 2015, hence the volume of so many salt and pepper, the inheritors FINALLY wanted them GONE. These were the most appealing so they are the first to leave.
The little green glasses and little pitcher are child sized. I am thinking they are from the 50's as well but I have no matching evidence. They have been moving from place to place in my house so they are going to new homes too.
A small Goebel bird arrived last week. It is on its way as well.
The footed white glass comports were also finds from last weekend and are slated for my booths.

Joy, good job letting go of some of your collections. I'm doing the same thing, and it's hard. I don't have a booth but I've been selling a few things online and donating most things. I still have so so much but some things I'm not able to let go of...yet!

Lovely collection! Love the Goebel bird :))
ReplyDeleteSometimes when you let the old go you find new amazing things. I love that child's pitcher and glass set.
ReplyDeleteNice finds and even nicer letting go! I love the bright colors on the James Kent pieces. That's not a name I knew until reading your blog, so it's filed away for future reference. The s/p sets are adorable. I'm sure you've got some fast sellers in there!
ReplyDeleteThat Goebel bird is so sweet!
ReplyDeleteOh wow. This post has memories in it for me. My mom had that square milk glass candy dish with the grapes on it. I also recognize the mouse salt shaker with the pink bow(far right). I think she had that too and I have the same Goebel bird. It belonged to my aunt. I'm trying to sell some of my lusterware. It's not easy for me to list it and unfortunately, nobody wants to buy it either.
ReplyDeleteI love chintz and have a "few" pieces. Every once in awhile I think about selling them, not yet! Fun S&P!!
ReplyDeletewarmly,
deb
Hi Joy,
ReplyDeleteYou have such wonderful pieces! I'm certain some lucky one will love them. Thanks for playing today.
Happy Blue Monday!
Good morning, Joy. Someone is gonna gobble those pieces up and love them to death. I just know it.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful collections...we moved a couple yrs ago and I thinned my collections quite a bit. I kept things that really meant something and it feels wonderful to have less.
ReplyDeleteI love your chintz so much...
I used to think I needed things, now I wish I did not have. We all have a tendency to collect things when younger, but with age that changes. Now, not sure anyone in my family wants them.
ReplyDeleteI have the glass compote on the far right sitting right now on my coffee table. I picked it up because my mom had one we used as a candy dish, so I keep candy in mine. My dad liked gumdrops so it usually held gumdrops but I'm not a fan so mine has wrapped Dove dark chocolate pieces in it. Much better!
ReplyDeleteHello, it is hard letting go of our collectibles. Hubby and I are downsizing, just in case we should move to a smaller place. You do have a lovely collection, I love the pretty parrot. Have a happy day and new week ahead!
ReplyDeleteIt must be hard to buy collectibles and not keep them all for yourself. I have been looking for the Royal Winton yellow chintz in a teacup or the teapot. People must be hanging on to it as rarely is it seen at our antique barns.
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking to Mosaic Monday Joy.
So pretty I collect both salt and pepper and milk glass!
ReplyDeleteLove your find :)
Joy @ Books and Life
I so enjoyed seeing your collections! My Granny collected salt and pepper shakers - she callled them 'what knots!' No idea where they all went but she had cases FULL of them!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely collectible pieces. It is not easy to let them go, is it? Thanks for sharing them with us.
ReplyDeleteOh Joy, these are my favorite finds so far. I love every little thing and I am sure those who shop at your booth were thrilled to have such a lovely selection.
ReplyDeleteThank you, dear one, for sharing with Roses of Inspiration. Hugs!
Wow, I love everything - those cute S&Ps, the chintz dishes, and that incredible glass and pitcher set, but my favorite is the parrot. He's just lovely. Now I have another reason to make the trip up to Canada - just to see your booth. I've wanted to see the flower market in Vancouver for years.
ReplyDeleteYour always score big time. Love everything you found...love the Goebel bird, I have a similar one and it small has a small hole on the top of it's head? Still cute, and so are your finds!
ReplyDeleteJoy, I love the little bird! Sylvia D.
ReplyDeleteI was going to say that the Chintz dishes were my favorite find until I saw the green glasses.
ReplyDeleteI just love your salt and pepper shakers collection. So vintage!
ReplyDeleteI love the green glasses and the colors of the condiment set!
ReplyDeleteI've never met a chintz cup and saucer that I didn't like. The salt and pepper shakers are so cute!
ReplyDeleteOh, I do like the cockatiel. Very nice. Great finds. Lucky you.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness... all those sweet little salt and peppers make me smile! :o)
ReplyDeleteTania
great finds all of them but I love the birds!!
ReplyDeleteLove the chintz and yes i'm cleaning out and letting go of treasures also, it comes with age LOL
ReplyDeleteI love the chintz too and every little what not. How precious and how hard to let pretty things go. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteLove all your beautiful collectibles. The green glass is a favorite and I love the white milk glass compotes. Visiting from ROI. Have a special day. Hugs, cm
ReplyDeleteLots of beautiful goodies...I understand the letting go part...we can't keep it all!
ReplyDeleteThere comes a time when we have to decide what stays and what has to go. Love all your treasures especially the milk glass. Thanks so much for sharing at Vintage Inspiration Party.
ReplyDeleteWOW. *Gulp*
ReplyDeleteJames Kent and Royal Winton go for a TON of money on ebay - hope you priced them well, those are very very valuable!
Well done, that's what I call a GOOD DAY! : - )
Great finds Joy. I especially like the child's green glass pitcher and glass set--so sweet. Hope you have a great week-end!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE reading your posts Joy and finding what you find over your weekend! One man's trash is indeed another's treasure and you have some great ones today! Pinned and shared!
ReplyDeleteThose are really, really lovely find... although they are three different brands, they all match together. And I love your butter dishes. So clean and pure looking, and its pedestal! So gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteGreat finds! I would have a hard time letting go of those footed compotes! Thanks so much for stopping by and linking up to Talented Tuesdays! Hope to see you again this week!
ReplyDeleteJoy, lots of wonderful treasures! Good for you for letting go. I'm not to that point quite yet. lol! I love the little bee S&P shakers. Would be so cute with my bee décor that I put out each year. thanks for sharing with SYC.
ReplyDeletehugs,
