Hi Kathleen,
ReplyDeleteWow, that's quite a collection! I LOVE the Polish pottery and have been looking at it when I go in The Christmas Tree Shop and various other places. But I can't spend that kind of money on dishes right now, and I don't know where in the world I would put them all.
She's got a wonderful variety of pieces. Hopefully she'll find a buyer soon. :)

Its very pretty! Hope she can find a buyer!
ReplyDeleteI love Polish Pottery!! But I don't live in New York, and I wouldn't have space for ALL of it anyway. Whoever gets this is getting a great deal though.
ReplyDeleteChristine @ Christine's Home & Adventures has a large collection of Polish pottery. She might be a good resource. It's sad that your friend is unwilling to ship it...seems it would greatly increase her market opportunity.
ReplyDeleteYes, I talked to Christine last week about this. I wanted her opinion.
DeleteDitto what Cherry Kay said. Christine might have some good advice as she has a large collection of this pretty Polish pottery. I hope she finds a good home for this. It's lovely and the price seems extremely reasonable for all these dishes.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Someone in or near New York will be lucky!
ReplyDeleteThe price is excellent, Kathleen. It's a lot of pieces. The plates alone are worth that much if bought in the store. They are very heavy so I can understand why she does not want to ship plus she will be risking breakage during the process. I hope she can sell them. The new owner will be lucky as they are very durable and practical. You can bake in them and serve in them and eat on them...Christine
ReplyDeleteChristine, I just sent this to you via email. I wondered if you saw it :) I see you did!

Wow! What an amazing collection!
ReplyDeleteKaren
Wow-a gorgeous collection and a great price. Someone is going to be very lucky!
ReplyDeleteWOW! I would buy it a jiffy, but to send it here would cost more than the entire pottery!! She's selling it so cheap! Lucky lady who purchases it!
ReplyDeleteFabby
Great collection with a great story behind it.
