When I was packing up my parents' things in preparation for
selling the house, I did so in haste. I was careful, don’t get me wrong, but I
tried not to dwell on individual items, just pack them up as quickly and
carefully as I could. I am still unboxing things, and just the other day
unboxed these beautiful fruit dishes (if that is indeed what they are), that
you saw in this post. I was with my mother when she bought these, having no
idea what she would ever do with them, just bought them because she liked them,
but didn’t realize that they were Haviland.
What treasures! Like my mother, I have no idea what I’m going to do with them,
but I suspect I will use them for cold salads or soups. They are a bit more
dainty and delicate than what I’m used to, but I find, these days, then you can
pretty much mix everything with everything.
Aren’t these lovely?

They are beautiful. Your Mom had great taste.
What fun opening these boxes! Where are you storing the boxes? Have you had luck selling the house?
