New Vintage


Thought I would share some recent op shops finds. At only 50c a piece, this lovely old cutlery has found it's way into my collection. I love old cutlery, especially bone handled knives and use them all the time for cheese and pate. These bone handled fish knives are so lovely to use and I believe, make the fish taste even better than when using an ordinary dinner knives. I polish all of my old finds with a silver cloth on a regular basis and for all (except those with bone handles), wash them as usual daily in the dishwasher. I love their scratches and patina, just shows how many wonderful dinners they've been part of.

  1. Hi Tara. Your new vintage cutlery looks gorgeous. I love old cutlery and have my Nan's set that was used for over 50 years. I love it and, yep...I too pop it all in the dishwasher. Enjoy your new treasures. Happy new week to you ~ Tina
