I know it has been a while since I have posted any new pictures life has just been crazy lately. My collection has grown to 314 pieces including many new mixing bowls, my first pitcher, and quite a few new dinnerware patterns. I will work on getting them posted and up on the web as soon as I can.

Thanks for checking out my collection.

Jade- ite Restaurant Ware

Restaurant Ware was produced from 1948-1967. This pattern is exactly what it sounds like. It was used in everything from diners to churches to fire stations. The US Military is said to be the largest user of Restaurant Ware, one book I have has heard from many of retired military personnel who recall eating off Fire-King for years. A few years ago a large stash of unopened Fire-King was found in a military warehouse and auctioned off. Many pieces and colors were produced in this line. I currently only have the two pieces shown.

Shown:
7oz. Extra Heavy Cup (1)
6" Saucer (1)
