Isn’t this glorious? The photo doesn’t do thee pieces justice. Such a deep, rich red. Absolutely beautiful.
I spent three nights dog sitting my grandbeagle. My daughter lives in Waterloo and I thought I’d take the opportunity to go to three fab antique malls in St. Jacobs and Cambridge. I saw this pitcher in one of them, but the price was more than I was willing to pay. The glasses were in the same mall.
I thought about this pitcher all evening, but knew I was going elsewhere the next day. I thought I might find something else to spend my money on. Lo and behold, I saw THE pitcher at a lower, and acceptable cost, of about 65% cheaper than the original. No second thoughts. I scooped this up and had it put away for me on a shelf.
Of course, I had to return to the first store to buy the glasses. But it was worth it. This morning we had juice in them. I swear the juice (carrot) tasted better in these pretty Old Fashioned (no alcohol). Of course it doesn’t take alot to make carrot juice taste better!
I didn’t buy alot, but I will pass along links to these antique stores. I try to visit each when I am in the area. Note that the last one ONLY takes cash and there’s no ATM on site.
