I have been cleaning out cabinets and I have one dish that has been in there for over 25 years and need help identifying it. Can someone help? It is the size of a dessert plate approx 8" across.

Thanks so much to all of you for the help. Guess I can put the plate back in the cabinet and let my children do away with it when I am gone. The cookie roller brings a few bucks so maybe I will list it.
My daughter tells me I have so much stuff that she will set up tables at the funeral home when I die and everyone who comes to the visitation will get a free gift. Guess I will have friends I didn't know about.

Glass is a funny thing, dixielady. Very pretty and even beautiful pieces are often worth nothing.
I have a bunch of assorted etched stemware from the Forties -- very pretty, very delicate -- doing service in my office for juice and such because no one would buy it.

You are so right. I have had some beautiful things that no one wanted and some ugly (at least I thought they were) things that got multiple bids.
