I picked this up today. It seems to be a pretty rare form for Tuscany, and according to my reference books, the gray is rarer than pink. I like the simple, classic forms and colors. It's in very good shape with no chips or repairs I can see.
So pretty. I am always curious where people find treasures. I am a thrift store/garage sale gal myself. I'd love to go to auctions but have limited time to do so. Estate sales if I trip over them. You find so many lovely things Upstate, where do you search?
Amber, we usually pick a direction and drive. We go to Flea Markets, Garage/Yard sales, antique stores, outdoor shows like Brimfield Mass and Madison Boukville NY. Basically, wherever we happen to see something interesting. Something like American Pickers, except we don't go to people's houses! We don't usually get to auctions, they generally have them during the weekdays around here, when we're working. I think most of the fun is hunting for items and talking to people about what they have. I learn a lot from this, and I have taught some people (even dealers some things). As you can tell, I like a lot of different stuff. Enjoy you searching!
Sounds like a ton of fun! I'd love to tag along but live too far away. Keep posting you always come up with lovely items.
