When I worked at Macy's, I had a great discount and I picked up these very pretty bone china dinner plates, rimmed soup bowls, salad plates, s & p and mugs to mix and match with our existing dinner plates, all in perfect condition. The pattern is Touilleries. I found more place settings of my Emma Bridgewater on an online auction for a reasonable price....So, I'm offering them to any Farmgirl who wants them, just pay shipping. I'd like to know by Tuesday afternoon, so I can clear out the space for my new dishes (that's when they will arrive)...

Oh, I forgot, there is also a nice platter, with the butterfly, and peony design. Nice oval shape and good enough for a nice sized ham, pork roast, etc...That can come too.

So in all there are 5 dinner plates, 6 salad plates, 5 rimmed soup, 1 s & p shaker set, 2 mugs (there were just two of us and I think that was all they had), 1 meat platter.

So, as follows are photos of the whole grouping, details of rimmed soup, salad (2 different type of plates--4 of the peony 2 of the other), detail of dinner (a "khaki" gingham on edging), s & p and mugs.

Linda, I am very interested in sending it to you...it's really lovely, and if you can use it, it's a great stand alone, or mix in group for other dishes (which is what I did). Just let me know for sure and we can work out the details :)
