My Little China Pattern |

(For those of you that are interested: please note the title should be sung to the tune of “China Doll” by David Bowie)
When I first discussed China patterns with the fiancé I soon learned we had a full set… and Oh baby!, is what you would say when you looked at our China. Let me explain why the engaged-not-yet-married-couple has a full set of China, Crystal, and Silverware. You see the fiancé’s paternal grandparents are just a bit of hypochondriacs and really thought their time was up about 30ish years ago (please note they are in good health and still living). So they went out and bought all three of their grandchildren full 12 piece sets of China, silverware, and real lead Crystal. For the other two grandchildren this generous gift was given as their wedding present. For my fiancé, it was given as a housewarming gift as the paternal grandparents had given up on a wedding. This is a wonderful sentiment but the circa 1978 pattern is interesting to say the least….
