Excellent Enamels

Had some good luck with finding enamel bowls lately. The best one was the blue Cathrineholm plate with an unusual design on it – usually I only see the Lotus pattern here on the west coast, if I see any Cathrineholm at all. It’s sort of a sprayed web type of design. Web design!

At the thrift, it wasn’t priced so I had to go and visit the "pricing lady". She must have taken a whole minute looking at the plate and sizing me up. Then, with a complete poker face, she said $3. I think it would have probably should have been 50 cents since it was in that pile. But I wasn’t about to complain. It’s marked on back as "Made With Crucible Stainless Steel – Cahtrineholm Norway".

The orange bowl is an small Emalox found at the thrift store for a dollar.

The tiny green enamel dish with the maple leaf, I’ve no idea who made it, but it was 45 cents.
