This past weekend I attended one of my favorite kind of estate sales: a
very old Washingtonian family in a very old grand house. The family
bought said house during the great depression after selling their huge
estate and literally never touched the house again: not paint, no adding
furniture, etc. Shabby chic would be a great term (if it wasn't
already attached to something quite different). I wish I had some
pictures to share with you of the house but I never thought of taking
any snapshots unfortunately.
Sloans and Kenyon, a local
auction house, hosts the best estate sales of the oldest families here
in town. If they're hosting you know you need to be there! I had a huge
haul (including literal armfuls of linens which I spent all day Sunday
oxy-cleaning, laundering, and ironing) and just a few of the items are
shown here in this post.
One item I purchased remains a bit of a mystery. This small pitcher
reminds me of belleek ware - the collectible paper-thin Irish porcelain,
but is unsigned.
Notice it is double walled, the outer wall being pierced with a
continuous inner lining. The only marking is an S.72. and an LS
scratched into the glazing. I can't figure out who made the thing.
Any idea who could have made my new treasure?
