I love those dishes! What brand is it?
They are English, "Blue Calico". They are old. I have a couple pieces that I have found here and there, but it almost impossible to find the complete set. If you pieced them out on Replacements it would be over $1000, and they don't even have some of these pieces. Apparently she got a TON of calls about them after I called.I really scored.

The big one was my first Chanel, thrifted for $35. The other 2 were eBay "investments".
Right, the investments.. It's true though. If I hadn't sold several of mine pre-loved ones, they would be worth almost double by now (within 7-8 years). I recently got an investment too. She is still being conditioned, but when she is done, I will share.
 
67 pieces $70. I LOVE this pattern. I will keep some, but sell a bunch of it. You can rarely find a few of these pieces in the wild.View attachment 5005619View attachment 5005620

Loving your shoe finds, I would have probably snatched both. And I bet that dress will look very flattering on.

Did you get the cow creamer?
Yes! he's kind of camouflaged in the picture, in front of the tea pot.He's my favorite piece. I'm still pinching myself that I found so much of it. Also, had the super hard to find butter dish and tray, but the top has a really crappy repair. You can't even find that thing anywhere.
