These are two of my "treasures" - The cut glass bowl was given to me by a dear lady (Alice Griffith) who was a 50 year member of the Eastern Star. I was so pleased that she would give me something so beautiful and precious. I have had it for almost 50 years. - The other bowl is one that my grandmother had in her collection. My mother loved it and and I have had it for a long time. It is one of the things which I treasure.
I grew up in an antique shop. Mother and I lived in with my grandparents and my grandmother collected antiques and eventually had a shop. She and my grandfather would go "antiquing" - Another person (Elsie Berg from Boone )also went with her at times and they would scour the country to find stock for the shops. I enjoyed opening the boxes when they got back from their trips. Many of my Aunts also loved and collected them.
