When everyone at the sale is walking away with nothing.
Belleek look alike, but not Belleek. If it were Belleek, it would be marked.
I usually go to GW because they have a location close to me. But if it were me I would separate out all of the badly chipped and cracked pieces...
I agree. Also looks like it needs a dip in some CLR to remove the stains around the rim.
Personally, I love the old Haviland with the interesting shapes, but I can't save it all. So I don't buy it unless it has lots of color and lot of...
These dishes were made by Charles Field Haviland and Gerard Dufraisseix and Abbott. Date to around 1900 - 1924. Personally, I would donate them....
Is the trivet flat? It's a very unusual trivet. I've never seen one with that rolled edge. I don't know what else it could be. I have a couple...
A friend of mine looked for one of these just for the iron base. She took the machine out of it, new wood top and made a side table out of it...

Thanks! I think I will do as you suggest and just describe it in the title. It's likely fated for S. Korea anyway. I always liked to put the...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] I used to be very good at IDing Haviland Schleiger numbers but not with this one. Maybe because...
