Tarnished or Sparkling !!
The details of the removeable handle
and the edge trim on the base as well
as the lid are some of what drew me
to this piece in the first place
It is a bit tarnished....ok...ok...alot,
I will clean her up and maybe she
will be used for my next get together
or just to hold my pearls,
these are but a few,
maybe I can use her in my
new romantic bathroom...ohhh,
now you're thinkin.
You still have time to join this fun party....just pop over to Gypsy Fish Journal and sign up.
Right now I have to take down the Christmas Tree and the little village, pack away all of the musical guys and remove decor from lighting......soon the house will be devoid of the Holiday decorations for another 11 months....what will I replace all of these goodies with????

Enjoy your day my lovelies,
put on your creativity hat..or socks
and let me know what motivates you!!

Oh, Nerina,that is absolutely BEAUTIFUL, and how pretty would it look in your new romantic bathroom!!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful day!! You always make me feel good with your posts and comments!!
((Hugs))
Good Morning Nerina...
ReplyDeleteI love this Sheffield Serving tray. The detail on the lid is just beautiful. Even the tray itself is so detailed. What a wonderful find.
Yes, she needs a little cleaning. Get out your Tarn-X and a rag, spif her up a little and she will sing like a tea kettle. But for now, at least she was bought, and she is in a home of love.
Have a wonderful day sweetie. Country hugs and so much love, Sherry
Hi Nerina... Oooh I love your beautiful serving tray... your pearls look so very pretty in it... I would leave it tarnished, I think it is beautiful just the way it is...it speaks of so many years and so many memories... love to you... xoxo Julie Marie
ReplyDeletegorgeous! i actually love the tray as is, tarnished. the details are amazing. great find!
ReplyDeleteThat's a beautiful serving tray and a wonderful place to store your pearls also! Happy Silver Sunday!
ReplyDeleteI love this piece! So ornate. And I love it tarnished. Thanks for sharing....
ReplyDeleteI like your silver tray! and I wouldn't worry about tarnish. Better to use as is than to have them sit in a drawer. Thanks for visiting my silver collection at Beth's Take on Life. Enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteI'm voting for keeping the tray tarnished too! It's a beautiful piece and the pearls look so nice against the tarnished silver. Look forward to seeing what next week brings.

Beautiful tray & cover! Love all the swirls and twirls. You should really get back in the estate sale game, such fun.

thanks for stopping by and visiting French Lique... let me say, first, that I adore the name of your blog! secondly... you know some girls love those tarnished silver treasures... me... I have to polish... there is something about bringing that shine back to an old neglected piece... but eitherway... we girls do love our shiny objects don't we.

ReplyDeleteI LOVE this serving tray, Nerina! ... I see the bottom portion of these trays all the time at the thrift stores, but never such a pretty lid ... you did good! Ho about replacing the Christmas decor with a silver display?
