While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest,
cold and heat,
winter and summer,
and day and night
shall not cease.
Genesis 8:22

Some of my favorite things are hand painted pieces collected over the years.
These six mugs have th
eir home in a small mission china cupboard that belonged to my grandparents and was shipped to me from Oklahoma nearly forty years ago . 
I actually don't recall where I found them, but probably at the local flea market.
The mugs are porcelain, marked Imperial PSL Austria, but no signature .
Each of the six has a beautiful
hand painted image on one side.
Wheat, pine cones, corn.
Acorns, hops and hazelnuts.
On the back side is the letter "D"
(our initial)
Each lettering slightly different.
Altogether, a wonderful reminder of Harvest's Bounty

Your mugs are beautiful!! What a nice treasure you have with the mugs and cabinet from your grandparents!!
ReplyDeleteYou have such lovely things (and taste). :-)
ReplyDeleteDo you not say, It is still four months until harvest time comes? Look! I tell you, raise your eyes and observe the fields and see how they are already white for harvesting. James 4:35 Amplified Bible
It's harvest time! :-)
The verse and painted cups are so appropriate. My mother in law was a china painter, so I know these mugs are something to treasure.
