Standing and washing by hand is so much safer and I don't mind occasionally. (I've never seen/heard of olive dishes.) Thanks for sharing these.

I have a couple pieces of brown transferware and I LOVE my red transferware that I have. <br /><br />My hubby's grandmother was raised in a very formal home and oh-the dinner parties she threw. We had so many formal dinners there over the years. It was intimidating at first but so much fun. Even our kids at a young age were sitting at a formal table. I do that with my grandkids when they are here, too- although not to the extent of the formal table you show here! lol No way am I putting that many GLASSES on the table! xo Diana NanaDianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14298962791700019785noreply@blogger.com
