Another Great Adventure





We have returned from another adventure!  We were away for a few days and did some exploring, some shopping and some searching, we did find some treasures and we will share them soon.



We think it is important is to help maintain the history of Medalta Potteries for others to enjoy and learn from.  We have sent a few things to the Friends of Medalta as we believe some pieces are better off somewhere that they will be available for many people to see and learn from.











 It is exciting to find a plate or vase or bowl that really does not fit the regular pattern of anything that we have seen before and then try and solve the mystery.







We have Medalta Pottery as well as a few pieces of Medicine Hat Potteries, Alberta Potteries and P.I.E. pieces in our collection, the criteria we have for adding to our collection is whether we have one like it and whether or not we like it.















 Once everything is home and unpacked it is time to put things away and figure out how best to display so that we can enjoy looking at them, at least until the next one comes along.  We have debated about putting like pieces together, or putting the different companies together but in the end we put things away in a manner that we can see the newest pieces.








How do you display your collections or favorite things?













And the search continues.......
