Plum Blossom Dinnerware
Question:
Hi I recently went through my mother’s belongs and came across 4 dinner plates, 4 salad plates (one with a large chip which I still have), and 4 saucers. I looked up the pattern and it is the plum blossom collection. They are in pristine condition as they have been hid away for about 40 years….i never remember seeing them – ever. I also have a dark green art deco type coffee decanter (LARGE), cream and sugar and salt and pepper that seem to belong to it too.. These have no decorations. Only The plates say red wing hand painted on the back. The thing I am wondering is, are these of any value or interest to anyone. I would love to see them in a home of someone who would cherish them if they are indeed collectible. I could probably get a friend to take a picture of them if there is any serious interest in them. I would sincerely appreciate a reply as I am quite curious if there is an interest out there for them.
