thank you SugarLMtnAntqs, rocklandman, and savoychina!
I have never seen one of these before, I love the pattern and the colour is gorgeous !
outstanding!
I purchased on of these sets in 1985 directly from Fenton when I was a dealer. Searching for the value of this set. Mint condition.
They are so beautiful! Thanks for showing them!
Tara...i would say this set is worth approx $600 if you have the laddle, 12 cups, bowl and pedestal. when bought new this was not a cheap set and it still is not!
Cindyjune...thanks you for the nice comments...i appreciate them :)
thank you Junkmanjoe, Dottie, and Mrj303!
