I checked my tea cups and other breakables and they are so dusty. Even if our windows are always closed, the dust penetrates the gaps, and inside the cabinets. Not only that my pieces are dusty, but they are sticky as well which I very well suspect is caused by air pollution. We live in a metropolis sandwiched by main thoroughfares and inundated by automobiles.
Richard Gnori platter, a gift to me from my kids. They bought it in Milan at a department store near our hotel in June 2014. I have become so forgetful now, unlike before when I could remember where I bought every tiny decor I have. It’s important that I write down the history or provenance of my stuff most especially those there are gifts to me by my children, whether they cost one dollar or a thousand, I cherish them.
I bought this cobalt blue crystal punch bowl and cups set some 28 years ago. I can’t recall 100% If I bought this at the Frankfurt International Furniture and Furnishings Fair in Germany in 1993. I will verify this information with my sister because she was with me during that trip.
They are sticky, not dusty but sticky, maybe from the humidity.
I cleaned them one by one then I wrapped them in tissue paper. I just want to keep this where it’s safe. I’ll probably give this to my daughter. I don’t think this is her style but I will make bilin not to garage sale because it’s valuable. I still remember how much I paid for this and hindi sya presyong pang garage sale.
