A Happy Pink Hunt

Dear Pinkies,

 I had a great hunting expedition this week.  I zeroed in on a pink English bone china set.  I was so excited.  I also found a great chocolate pot set.  I was sure I had the kill of the hunt.  After all, who wouldn't love either one of these sets?

When I got home I could hardly contain my enthusiasm to research my kills.  I was hungry for every piece of info I could find on these great pieces.  Half the fun of the hunt of course is the kill, but to those of us who stand in line for hours, or we who hope wish & pray, understand the other half is finding the treasure is indeed the treasure we thought it was.

Well I have researched looked and dug to get the info on this English china set.  I have found none.  As I don't entertain 12 at a time often, I would like to sell part of the set and hope I can provide info for it.

 The china is marked, but I can't find any info on it.  There are many pieces that are close, but not an exact match.

I hope one of you Pinkies may recognize it.

I hope everyone will join our pink hostess at:

And of course  I hope you enjoy My Pink Pretties.








If you have the time, I enjoy reading your comments

Until next time

Hope & hugs to you and yours

  4. Go to www.replacementsltd.com & search for your china stamp. You can also find tons of reference guides in Barnes & Noble or antique malls that deal strictly with marks on china,

    Very pretty finds.
    Have a lovely PS weekend.

  10. I love your china, but most of all - the dolls! There's one on the shelf that looks like my childhood "Sally" doll. Mine still opens and closes her eyes - but she has a dangling arm.

    Thanks for sharing.

  18. They're both beautiful, especially the chocolate set. Like you, I like to know the identity of things, but sometimes I just have to let go and enjoy them for what they are.

    Happy Pink Saturday!

  19. Wow...those are all son gorgeous and you did score big time. I too love the thrill of the hunt. You might try Replacement LTD as they may have sample of the set you have.

  22. What a find. I love the dishes but the chocolate pot set really makes my heart twitter.lol Enjoy

  23. Looks like you hit the jackpot! You don't mention what you paid for your china set; but I'm sure it was a steal... you don't see complete servings for 12 anymore, so that in itself is a big bonus. Replacements limited (i think someone else suggested it also) is a good start... good luck! :)
