Hi everyone. I didn’t want to let the blog languish, but we just don’t have much time to write. So I decided to keep this thrifting report short – under 300 words perhaps? =)
Here’s the latest:
Unfortunately, this Dansk Kobenstyle casserole had no lid and a big chip. But we couldn’t pass it up – probably will use it as a planter…
Love these handpainted “Nordic” style mugs. Bit of a mystery, designer is “C.J. Petersen” but it was made in Japan. Second time we’ve found this one. Anyone know more about them?
I can’t tell you how much Pyrex we pass up nowadays. But we didn’t have this Charcoal Snowflake 043 casserole or the Pink Gooseberry 502 refrigerator dish yet, so we got them. No lids? No problem – any matching clear glass lids work.
This little cup may be a bit on the boring side – but the sucker is Sterling silver, so couldn’t pass it up (have you seen the price of silver lately?) Made by Fisher, has a glass insert. Anyone know a way to approximate the sterling weight of a combination item like this?
These last two items were the best recent finds. The biomorphic white vinegar bottle is made for Freeman Lederman and is very popular with the midmod crowd. Famous designers for the company include La Gardo Tackett and Kenji Fujita. But we haven’t figured out the designer on ours yet – has a mark of “N” inside a “C”.
Don’t know much about the glass Holmegaard bowl – saw a similar style by Per Lutken called “Verona”, but unsure if this is related. Ours could also be a newer model.
OK, that’s it for this roundup – hope to post more soon!

Did you find something cool at a thrift or flea market lately?
Please leave a comment here if so…

I dont do pyrex as a rule but that snowflake number might just change my mind, nice!

I love mug with the birdie on it. Just adorable. I also love the Pyrex dishes! Great finds, all of them. I think that pot is well suited for a planter. It will look quite handsome that way.

You made me very excitied over the Sterling cup. I picked one up out of a FREE box this week. It was good then, now you made me feel even better about it.
I hope that life being very busy for you is filled with extra wonderful things going on.

I love your pyrex – lovely designs, especially the snowflakes, I’ve not seen that one before.

oo some more dansk kobenstyle, in the cherry red no less! would definitely make for a stylish planter. Freeman Lederman is a new one for me, I’ll have to start keeping an eye out. Its biomorphic form is great!

Love that nice red Kobenstyle too! I found a brown one recently with an interior chip too. I haven’t used it for anything other than admiring its style.

I’m fascinated by the biomorphic white vinegar bottle. Can’t…stop…staring. All the finds are beautiful, as always. The casserole pot will look beautiful filled with greenery!

The pyrex dishes are very pretty!
