White china is having a resurgence in popularity following a period where colorful patterns on dinnerware was en vogue. I've been invited to a handful of weddings this summer and most registries include china in basic white, which the practical me loves: it goes with everything! The original white dinnerware, Ironstone, is highly collectible and found across the country (but is particularly popular in the Northeast and Midwest). If nothing else, buy an Ironstone platter for use when serving bigger items like Thanksgiving turkey. Yum!
Lots of great posts this week including recent trips to Minneapolis and the Amish Antique Auction in Shipshewana, Indiana; Enjoy!
