Bring on the brownies please!! MMMMM!!! Dessert time just got a whole lot SWEETER!!! This is a FABULOUS vintage dinnerware set comprised of 8 porcelain salad or dessert plates, 4 Culver LTD highball glasses, 4 porcelain saki cups, and a lovely egg shaped salt and pepper shaker set. This is a wonderful mix of items that we married together as they looked like a fun way to serve appetizers, desserts, or a small luncheon. Let’s begin with the dessert or salad plates designed by Dana Oldfather for Ink Dish! We have eight white porcelain plates bearing two different patterns one featuring orbs & circles with colors of blue, browns, gold, a splash of green, and splatters of black and the other pattern retains larger bright blue circles (that remind me of a spirograph doodle, remember those??!!) and dots of black, yellow, and gold. They were made in Bangladesh AND they are microwave AND dishwasher safe so you can warm up that ooey gooey brownie with confidence, indulge in the warm delicious-ness, and then stick it in the dishwasher!! Moving on… Next we have four BEAUTIFUL Culver LTD highball glasses wearing a stunning 22 carat gold “Florentine” pattern composed of raised or textured fruits & citrus including pears, pineapple, apples, and grapes… a different one on each side in the center of the glass and within the top and lower gold borders. WOW!!! They are STUNNING but they are NOT microwave or dishwasher safe! That’s just no way to treat 22 carat gold folks!!! LOL… Pour yourself or your guest a refreshing beverage of choice and HAND wash these beauties! Ok, on to these DARLING saki cups. There are 4 cups featuring hand painted light blue flowers with green leaves and you certainly don’t have to limit what they hold to saki!! They are the perfect size for dipping sauce, a scoop of ice cream or sorbet, or a tiny dessert of your choice! And last, but SURELY not least… we present these wonderful egg shaped white porcelain salt & pepper shakers with dainty gold details. That’s EIGHTEEN gorgeous pieces in total!! You are about to shake your salt & pepper, serve your dessert, drink your beverage, and entertain your guests with incredible Mid-Century Modern to Modern MAGNIFICENCE!! It’s a marvelous combination whether used in your kitchen while hosting a little brunch or dessert party. And, if you aren’t entertaining, they will look marvelous sitting as a display on a buffet or sideboard in the dining room, or in your China or display cabinet!
