Anchor Hocking Divided Candy/Nut Dish This little beauty is the most stunning shade of azure blue! A vintage, Anchor Hocking candy / nut dish is an oval with a divider in the middle and scalloped edges. The particular pattern is called Fairfield. It is in good vintage condition! There are two itsy bitsy hairline cracks that are barely visible.  Wouldn't this dish look divine with the four Libbey Glasses shown above? Sorry, Nicole is the photographer not me.

3 Types of Vintage Bowls

Hi. Welcome to our Little Shop of Treasures Blog. Come this way so I can share a few new items in our shop. Wooden Bowl Lately, my daughter and I have been drawn to items made from wood. We appreciate the unique look and feel of these natural solid hardwood pieces.  This bowl is both functional and decorative. I can appreciate the unique look and feel of this natural solid hardwood bowl. This is why, today we are featuring this handsome, hand turned wooden bowl with is accompanied with a lid. It would make a perfect catch all because you simply place the lid on the bowl and you can hide your miscellaneous items from prying eyes. There is a label attached to the bottom of the bowl that says, "Handcrafted by Rick Myatt, Leith, Ontario." Mr Myatt must have created this unique piece with pride and skill in his craft. I am positive it will be a wonderful addition to your home whether it blends in with your decor or is a unique contrasting item. Wire Bowl/...

Milk Glass

Hi, welcome to our Little Shop of Treasures blog.  Today we are featuring a couple of milk glass items from our Etsy shop. Three Vintage Bud Vases Take a look at these vases. Aren't they gorgeous? Simple - refreshing. We have three vintage milk glass bud vases by E.O. Brody Company.  All three of these vases are similar in height (six inches), colour and shape. I think it's cool that they each start out with hexagon bases of 2 1/4 inches and transform into small round openings measuring 1 1/4 inches. The bud vases do share similarities but there are also some variations. The embossed designs are all different and offer textural interest which is exactly what we want when all of them are the same colour. Vintage Anchor Hocking Candy Dish Our shop currently has this Anchor Hocking Milk Glass Candy Dish.  This is a magnificent footed dish with a lid features an embossed grape vine motif on all eight sides.  There are no chips, cracks or...
