Well hello again 👋✨
After a bit of radio silence… I traded sunny SoCal 🌴 for snowy Minnesota ❄️ and have been busy getting settled, digging through antique shops, estate sales, and hidden corners in search of the good stuff.

The shop is OPEN, the shelves are filling, and I’ve been uncovering all kinds of unique, hard-to-find treasures just waiting for new homes. 🏺💎

If you love the thrill of the hunt and scoring a great deal as much as I do, you’re in the right place. My favorite part? Passing along special finds at prices that feel just as good as discovering them.

Check back often as I start adding these (and many more!) to the shop — because you truly never know what treasure you might find. 🤍

Happy hunting,
Carrie 🤗❤️

Hey everyone! I am beyond excited to share my latest find with you all—a stunning set of six antique Blue Willow pattern bread/dessert plates by Ridgeway from the early 1920s. Seriously, these plates are a must-have for any collector or as a super thoughtful gift. They bring a timeless elegance to any home and I’m absolutely obsessed!

The Spode factory first introduced the Blue Willow pattern in the late 1790s. It quickly took Europe by storm with its intricate Chinese landscape designs. This beautiful blue and white porcelain style, inspired by hand-painted scenes of serene Chinese landscapes, is now a staple in modern Chinoiserie decor.

This 100-year-old set of Ridgeway plates keeps this beloved tradition alive. Each 6-inch plate is a gorgeous piece of history, blending European craftsmanship with Asian-inspired beauty. They’re in amazing vintage condition, with some charming crazing that adds to their authenticity and charm.

Collectors go crazy for Blue Willow pieces, especially from renowned makers like Ridgeway, because of their historical significance and enduring beauty. These versatile plates are perfect for functional dinnerware and decorative display, adding a touch of sophistication wherever they go.

Whether you use or display them, these Ridgeway Blue Willow plates are a delightful nod to the artistic exchange between cultures that still captivates collectors and enthusiasts alike. Don’t miss out on adding this enchanting set to your collection!
