Find Of The Day: Wedgwood Creamware




I am curbing my spending for two reasons.  First of all, I'm trying not to accumulate too much stuff and secondly, my house is getting a new chimney and liner, which is a major expense.  So, I am going to restrain myself from bidding on this Wedgwood compote.  It's on eBay and the current bid is a  reasonable $29.99.  It would look great filled with fresh limes, flowers, or even shells.  The gold rams head handles are unusual and the gilding is classic.  If you're interested, you can bid here. And if you win it, please let me know. I'd be happy to learn it went to a good home (since it won't be coming to mine).

    I just put it on my "watch list"! It is quite lovely! Nothing like the warmth of a fire in the fireplace, though!

    Divine - Not to whine (although I am, actually), but there isn't a fireplace in the house. This is just for ventilating the gas furnace. If anyone wants to know anything about venting furnaces, just drop me an email. I've learned more than I wanted to!

    It's not fun spending money on things you can't see. It seems you are still window shopping but have GOOD SELF CONTROL :)

    Thank you, CCH. Maybe I'll post before and after photos of the chimney, just for fun.

    Beautiful. I was just discussing the gold with my professor today in my ceramics class.
    This is a really great deal.
    Thank you for sharing.
