Brian (teenager) and I went to my Grandma's house to help clean inside her kitchen cabinets. It has been awhile since I've helped with that job, but it was a summer tradition when I was growing up. She was in a "cleaning out " mood and gave me several boxes of dishes, AND she still has LOTS in her cabinets! Above are some Fire King saucers.
-glass coasters,
Forest Green glasses and pitcher,
Queen Mary bowls, (Grandma used these for homemade icecream!)
Old Cafe bowl,
Queen Mary divided dish,
Forest Green, but I don't know the pattern...
blue cups and saucers, another pattern I can't identify...
more bowls, this time I think the pattern is Burple,
A bowl marked "Maddux" and 1959...
Opalescent Hobnail dish,
Jelly or jam serving set,
Covered Compote.
I think I inherited my love of dishes from my Grandma Bessie! If I have any patterns incorrectly identified or you know a pattern that I didn't identify, please let me know.
Great stuff!! Hope you never have to move and down-size like I did. But I did try to hang on to most of my "old" inherited stuff. Enjoy. Use them!! Take care and God Bless.
Those are so nice. It's hard to find anything that nice anymore. You are so lucky.

That is such a nice collection. I really like the jam/jelly dish.
