Exciting New Finds



I went thrifting on Saturday and found some very nice items.
A jar made by the Hermann Ohme Porcelain Factory. The pottery mark indicates that it was made in the period from 1895-1910. The Ohme factory was located in a town called Niedersalzbrunn, in Silesia. The area now belongs to Western Poland and the town is called Walbrzych. It is quite the find, because Silesia/Ohme pottery is a highly sought after collectible :)
The next find, a Noritake cup and saucer, are similar to the saucer I blogged about a while ago. This set is also white with the yellow band that is covered by an ornate hand painted heavy gold floral design. The set was made during the deco period from 1918-1921. By the way, the other saucer is even older and was made in 1908.
Of course I am thinking about keeping the cup and saucer for myself.
It seems the box with items I intend to keep is getting fuller and fuller.
