Cait’s Inpiration #2

Fire King Jadite… Dreamy.

Zak & I are big on collections, I think we both just love little treasures. Zak collects Laguiole & I collect Fire King Jadite Restaurant Ware. Well rather we collect them for each other since it’s more fun that way.

That milky green, hmmmm adore it!

On my birthday this year Zak surprised me at our favorite coffee shop by having our drinks served in two Jadite mugs. What a sweet boy he is!

Jadite was produced by Anchor Hocking Glass Co. in the 30’s-60’s. Restaurant Ware. Produced from 1950 to 1956 is the most well-known jadite pattern. It is a clean simplistic pattern, once used in diners all over the country, and was advertised as :Mass Feeding Establishments”. It was sold in five and dimes, it was produced in a wide variety of tableware objects, including partitioned plates and different sized cup, mugs and bowls. The thick lipped coffee cups were known as “cheater mugs” by using these cups, restaurants could save about an ounce of coffee.

If we could register for it we would!

    Tell us all what pieces you’d love to add to your collection. After all, it is so very lovely! And, any of us could happen upon just the thing at some antique shop or while perusing ebay…
