<p>[QUOTE="dgbjwc, post: 167868, member: 308"]Oh, yes. As china goes it's really not bad at all - quite pretty and functional. The problem is we are awash in this type of china and there's far more available than we can sell. We can't sell fine china like Lenox, Limoges, and Noritake let alone a relatively minor pottery that closed almost 100 years ago. The prices have to be so low that they are not worth the time and space. I'd be happy to get $5 for the creamer and sugar and it would take forever to sell. Same with the gravy. It's really quite sad. Folks nowadays run to Walmart if they need these items and buy something plain and white from China rather than buying far prettier items with a pedigree in an antique mall. </p><p>Don[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
