PICKING OUT YOUR CHINA


When you are a collector of everything, you have to pick your favorites, especially if you move often.  I spent a year hunting down the one set of china that I wanted to treasure hunt for, and here it is...Thousand Faces china!  The teapot is classic Thousand Faces.  The beautiful colors of the glazes, and the pattern (if you look really close, you can see all of the tiny faces painted on it), and the gilding.  I have spent years hunting down just the tea set with a few plates here and there.  It is always a triumph when I discover a piece in a tiny shop somewhere.  The thrill of the hunt has been just as important to me as the pieces themselves!
