I noticed a retail store near us had a new line of copper loved it until I looked at the price. Each charger was $65. Wasn’t willing to pay that. Love, love the patina on yours! Special family heirloom for sure. I’ll have to keep my eyes open at thrifts and home goods. Love it for fall and Thanksgiving! Thanks for sharing with SYC.

thanks jann. yes, i would say that’s out most of our price range. i’m sure they were beautiful. i saw someone share using silver plate platters found at thrifts spray painted in copper metallic. i loved that they were all different but in the same finish. just a thought. xo- mj
That is so funny! I never used to like copper much, either, but now I do, too:) I actually have those same chargers from when we got married 20 years ago. I also just bought a copper Moscow Mule cup at Tuesday Morning (only $8) to use for a vase! Great minds think alike! Thanks so much for sharing over at our Vintage Charm party!

I have loved copper since the 1970’s when we lived in Turkey and I brought a lot of it home. I love the chargers that you inherited and I think your Thanksgiving table is the prettiest I have ever seen. The chargers add just the right amount of bling. I’m glad I stumbled upon your blog!
thank you so much sheryl for the sweet compliments. i bet you have some great copper pieces from turkey. thanks for stopping by & i would love for you to follow my blog. xo- mj
Looks like Sheryl isn’t only one glad to have found your blog, am loving it also. I like getting different perspectives on life which certain blogs offer.
Am quite envious of your incredible copper collection. Your dble boiler is so gorgeous. Love those Moscow mule cups.First time for me seeing them was on Lia Griffith’s blog last year about this time thru Thanksgiving.And your chargers, oooh my, so beautiful. So glad for you to have inherited some lovely pieces, your table is gorgeous.
I don’t have any copper but did contribute to our daughters small collection. We have small mfg. home so don’t have lots of room for things not used regularly. I gave daughter our set of Franciscan Desert Rose while back, they were wedding gift.
She has big buffet/hutch in her dining room, we don’t have any eating area in our house at all. Do miss our table/chairs and buffet hutch but no room for it.
Maybe will go to Tuesday a.m. to see if I could acquire couple Moscow mule cups.
Have great week
Hello Jane Ellen. I actually gifted the Moscow mule cups to my girlfriend & I’ve been tempted a few times to pick some up for myself but ive stopped myself every time. Not sure why. and although copper has grown on me it’s not my absolute favorite. I’m also not sure what style I want, hammered, round belly, accented with another metal, monogrammed… too many options so I just always walk away. I do absolutely love the chargers from my parents & I’ll be using them this thanksgiving season. That’s wonderful u passed some pieces down to your daughter she’ll cherish them forever. xo- mj
