ahwt Posts: 2334 Registered: Mar 2003	posted 11-20-2018 07:17 PM A Happy Thanksgiving Day to all. This is a good day to bring out some silver and china. The silver flatware and goblets are by many different US silversmiths; mostly from the 1840s or 50s. The plates are a pattern called "Bentick" that was introduced by John Ridgway & Co. around 1840. It was a very versatile pattern, came in various colors and continued to be made by predecessors of Ridgway well into the 20th century. I just noticed that I forgot to put out the bread and butter plates so that says something about taking pictures before a party. IP: Logged

This plate and the service plate are made by Fritz and Floyd and the pattern is Medallion d’Or. It is a great color for this time of year. The Thanksgiving holiday has always been one of my favorite holidays. IP: Logged

seaduck Posts: 350 Registered: Dec 2006	posted 12-02-2018 10:42 PM I think this is wonderful! Every last detail. And I covet those plates. I've always loved looking at table settings. Somewhere I have a book called "Tiffany Settings" or some such, which I bought when I was young. And I miss the days when you could go into major retailers (Tiffany, Shreve Crump and Low) and see umpteen places set out with various patterns. IP: Logged
