\"Westmoreland<\/a>What a great trip we had to Washington, D.C. and points in between. \u00a0I didn’t keep track of the thrift shops, antique shops and flea markets that we visited, but there were lots. \u00a0My guy is very patient.<\/p>\n

I brought back more than the usual number of items and have lots of new (old) pieces to post.\"Westmoreland<\/a><\/p>\n

I always look for the special piece that really peaks my interest (that’s affordable). \u00a0I didn’t find anything until yesterday at the very last shop we visited in Waterdown, New York. \u00a0It’s a beauty, but I am gong to try to identify it before it is posted.<\/p>\n

In the interim, here’s a cute little cat on nest. \u00a0Made by \"Westmoreland<\/a>Westmoreland, it has opalescent edges and ears.<\/p>\n

Quite the sad expression on its little face.<\/p>\n

I’ve posted the mark. \u00a0It was created by Westmoreland’s final owner, David Grossman. \u00a0The Grossman mark consists of the name Westmoreland encircling three vertical lines. \u00a0I know it’s hard to pick up the details in this photo. \u00a0This mark was used between 1983-1984, when the company closed. \u00a0So this little kitty is 30+ years old!<\/p>\n
