Ceramics & Porcelain
Seymour Mann ceramics, except for the cups and saucers with small creamer. Those were a gift, and they are called eggshell porcelain made in China. All of these are vintage with the Chinese marks. The pitcher at the far right is supposed to be a chocolate pot, although one person said it was a creamer. The pitcher on the left is a chocolate pot, too. I treasure my "blue and white" vintage Chinese collection. I have more, but these are all that would fit on this cabinet shelf.
Detail of Chinese chocolate pot/creamer.
These are my latest acquisitions, also vintage with the Chinese marks on the bottom.
Blue Delft Creamer Cow, made in Holland.
Turnip Salt and Pepper - Sometimes I cannot resist picking up the "unusual" from the thrift shops. While it is not my intention to collect salt & peppers, they just sometimes wind up in my collections, especially if they resemble fruits or vegetables!
Recently found this China cannister at a thrift store. It is very nice, and definitely vintage with the Chinese mark on the bottom. If anything says "Made in China" on the bottom, it's modern. I have found a few nice ceramic things that are modern and made in China, but I'm mainly looking for the Chinese mark that shows a vintage item.
Ginger Jar - not high quality, but I've always wanted a Ginger Jar! I'll keep looking for a better one, of course. In the meanwhile, I have this one. Definitely hand-painted, and that has to mean something.
Miniature Tea Set - I've had this for decades, and don't know where it came from. But it is really cute and worthy of this collection.
