[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mother kept a set of Lenox china her aunt had collected over the years because it was pretty and it cost a lot (at the time). When she downsized, she had no room for it. My research found absolutely no one wants gold-rimmed (has to be hand washed) dishware with flowers on it anymore. I told her to choose one or two pieces to remember her aunt by and toss the rest. [/quote] I’m Gen X and use those kinds of plates, purchased from thrift shops for about $1 each, for Passover Seders. I’m sure it will come back in vogue and that I’ll be very sorry about all of the other, inherited tableware that I donated. But, on the other hand, a lot of the inherited stuff was in wonderful shape because it hadn’t been used often, if ever, since my grandmother was married, in 1930. So, a lot of that stuff wasn’t especially useful even in 1935. [/quote]
