Well, it's Friday and I don't know about you guys, but it's been a particularly long and rather on the craptacular side and weird sort of week. Hows about some vintage aqua crap to get this partay started? Good. No chatty, just the facts. Enough with the blahbity-blah already, let's rock and/or roll.
This is gonna be another long one~ (that's what she wishes she said) with a whole lotta pictures going on. I think today may be even more bandwithier than my last post. I'm getting out of hand and must be stopped.
Today's Aqua Blue Heaven theme is serve ware- dish sets, platters and serving dishes. Joy! Fun for the houesewifey types, boring for the menfolk here, I bet. (Don't worry, fellers- I'm planning on a manly theme for you coming up soon, so you male types can go back to watching your ping pong matches or Field and Stream magazines or dry humping your Bo Derek posters or whatever it is that you do.)
Vintage 50's Sycamore Pattern Serving Plates by Franciscan China.
Vintage 50's California Mobile Poppytrail Pattern Chop Plate, California Made Metlox.
Vintage 50's Salem Royal Windsor Biscayne Dish Set. A cute little set for those who want something other than the whole atomic thing.
Vintage 50's Starbrite Pattern Dish Set by Homer Laughlin. A KILLER set for those of us who want the atomic thing. Hot damn. Lurve. (A really cool alternative to Franciscan Starburst.)
Vintage 50's/60's California Made Covered Server with Stand. You gotta love the speckles of brown! Or don't love them, for all I care. Geeze, try to show you something cool.
Vintage 50's/60s unmarked but cute gold flecked candy (or whatevs) dish.
Another unmarked, quintessential 50's 4-sectioned server. Gold fleck yourself.
Unmarked 50's/60's oblong covered server. More gold flecking good times.
Vintage 60's Melmac Server & Ashtray Set. Now that's manly. Something to hold your nuts AND smokes.
