Antique Finds: Plates

Jul 28th, 20102 Comments

Now that we are getting close to the finish of the dining room wainscot and plate rail, we figured we should find some plates to accent the room. Josh at Bungalow ‘23 found a fantastic Austrian plate with a Mackintosh-style rose that inspired by search for similar hand-painted plates.

Several of the plates were found on E-Bay and in antique shops around Portland and Minnesota during our recent trip back to the motherland.
