I’m Eve. I have loved vintage for as long as I can remember. I love to haunt thrift and antique stores looking at and touching the history from years past. As much as I love technology, like this blog, I love the past. I am glad that I live in a day where reaching people all over the world in seconds is possible, but when I hold a vintage item in my hands, I like to envision all the hands that held it before me. My favorite is vintage kitchen and home items. I will try to share the knowledge I have gained and am still learning with you.
If you get a chance, you can also visit my Etsy shop for vintage products at Vintage Eve’s. Enjoy the blog.
Hi, Vintage Eve’s! Thanks for the comment and following my blog. I, too, am interested in Vintage! I sell Vintage Patterns and Rubber Stamps in my Etsy Shop. Handmade Cards at sharpharmade.com .

I have a set of Rowantrees dishes my mother bought in Maine in the late 1940’s. Any interest?

Hi Eve – I read your comments about Prinknash Pottery. Do you know that the Pewter ware that the monks produced ( ie the grey metallic glaze) has lead in it in rather large quantities and it is not advised to use it today for food or drink. We started to collect Prinknash 40 plus years ago and were told this about 25 years ago by one of the very old monks before the monastery closed.
It is worth telling people this as there are still mugs, soup bowls etc. turning up at antique fairs, and on e bay etc.
Good wishes

Hi Eve, I would love to identify a piece that I bought here at a flea market in South Africa, exactly like the glass version of GlasBake clear baking dish, only this replication is made of some sort of cast iron bronze/steel type material, extremely heavy and is gold in color. Under side has the markings which took me a while to actually get right, USA GLASBAKE 4141.

Vennie, I’ve never seen one like that. I did a quick search and all I could come up with was a fish baking dish, but I believe those are all just glass, not metal.
