[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just use it if you find it pretty.  Run it in the dishwasher until it fails and that is that.[/quote]

Use it on Sundays to remember Mom. Run it in the dishwasher.  If something breaks don't worry about it.  I figure each plate of china is worth about a dollar or two.

Have a glass of wine in the Waterford. Use the Waterford as your water glasses at dinner. Enjoy the sparkle. Run the Waterford through
the dishwasher. If it chips, oh well.

There is very little demand for jasperware.  I just donated a load of Jasperware to the thrift shop but kept 4 plates to use. The Waterford probably has a bit more value.[/quote]

+1 When my mom downsized she passed on a set of glasses that she'd rarely used, a wedding present in 1968. They were simple column beverage classes with a contemporary dots design. She never used them because they weren't supposed to go in the dishwasher. We are enjoying them and just put them in the dishwasher. yes, the design is wearing off but I don't care. I looked at those glasses in her china cabinet for years! [/quote]
