~Mother's Day Silver Sunday~

Happy Silver Sunday Mother's Day! Today I have here a compote from the late 19th or early 20th century silver plate compote filled with lemons from our small orchard. The pattern of the compote has holly leaves and berries on the rim. Here is a close picture of the leaf and couple Berrie.

Well ladies We and the girls would like to wish all of you a Happy Mother's Day! On this special day. So enjoy your day with your family and friends. And please be sure to visit the other post also....Julian

  2. This is just exquisite...The lemons are the perfect compliment to the silver. From your orchard? What other treasures you have on your garden? Thank you for the Mother's Day wishes!

  6. Your dogs are adorable! And the compote is lovely. I'm fond of silver pieces that have a pedestal. This one has a beautiful rim. Looks great with the lemons.
