This is my grandmother’s solid silver tea set that was passed on to my mother and then to me! When it’s polished, it looks absolutely beautiful, but I like it like this too. My grandmother got married in 1926, and must have gotten this as one of the pieces in her dowry.
This is a newspaper that came out of the walls of our 110 year old condominium in Louisville, we were doing a major renovation. It’s from 1937! Quite a surprising find!

What a great find that newspaper is. It must be so interesting to read. I love it when older buildings give up their secrets to us. Did you find anything else?
I love the silver tea set. Good to see it taking pride of place in your home.
