Gorgeous Ceramic Serving Trays Platters
We are getting ready to come into warmer weather as the summer season heads our way. The air will be filled with barbecues, and smoked scents, the sounds of laughter and merry making. These times were part of my childhood and I am so glad my parents always found a way to makes our days happy. Grandmother’s glass serving trays platters were the center of attention, and they made us proud!
I definitely was not raised in a rich family. We always rose with the chickens, and worked all day long. I appreciated everything I had because, I had to earn it. My parents were very strict and believed that hard work would give their children character. I believe my parents were correct in their practices and I am happy they instilled those beliefs in me.
My mother’s platters were envied because they were made like nothing anyone had ever seen. The tints that were employed in the making of the three trays, seemed to hold your attention longer than you planned. Being porcelain, no one was allowed to handle them besides my mother.
I loved those dishes from the very moment I laid eyes on them. I could not wait until the next year, after momma stored them, so that I could view them again. Mom finally decided one day to tell me, how she got these wonderful pieces of art.
Mom was just a young girl, barely into her teenage years, when her mom, my grandmother, became quite sick. The physicians told my grandmother’s family that she did not have very long to live. Before grandmother died, she told my mother that she was to have the final platters she had made before becoming ill. Grandmother was a glass artisan and wanted her daughter to have something special, made by her hands, the set of three plates.
Now, I have grandchildren and when it is my time, I will give this set to my daughter so that she can have a part of our family history to pass to her children. They do not mean anything to others but, to me, no amount of money could buy them.
