Fire King Peach Lustre Bowls
Does anyone remember these bowls? My mother had them when I was growing up. I hated them.
A few years back I saw a set of six in a junk/treasure store and I bought them.
Now they are my favorite bowl to eat out of while I'm 'puting. They are especially nice for cold ice cream or hot soup because you hold the handle and it's not cold/hot on your hands.
Yeah, it's a sloooww day for blog material.
OMG this is just too weird..I was gone to an antique/collectibles shop today and they had a whole set of the Fire King Peach Lustre dishes...I remember my mom having some of the pieces!! What a coincidence that you should talk about them in your post today!! Hugs xox
ReplyDeleteDidn't these come in a greenish color too? I remember my Grandma having something similar in green!
ReplyDeletePea, that is a coincidence! I have a whole set of the dinner dishes. I sometimes set my table in black and peach with them.
ReplyDeleteSue, I've never seen them in green, but it's certainly possible.
Zoey, when I was a child, I hate a lot of things my parents like! But a bowl like yours I have never seen.
