Weekend Finds ~ Shabby Silver

Found these great shabby silver serving pieces this past weekend. Cute little servers. A gorgeous trivet.

I love it when I'm surprised with a monogram!!

Wonderful pickle forks, beautiful ornate sugar spoons....

Today they are so delightfully shabby....tomorrow they will be magnificently shiny!

  4. I love silver...it reminds me of royalty....I can just see a long banquet table with the king and queen in all their array....surrounded by their coutiers and guests, eating with their polished silver. It is just a luxury that is so much fun to find in a box of assorted cutlery.
    I love some of the engraving on your pieces too. Thanks for sharing your finds.

  8. I love your finds, but it pains me to see silver with initials on it that have not been handed down to "someone" in the original family. Hard to imagine you know?

    Been away from blogging a bit but I am back and always like to read what you have going.

  10. Oh Holly, you have found some wonderful pieces! I went to a consignment store today and there was a box full of silver that had not been put out yet. I'm going back when they open again on Tuesday to see if I can get a deal!
