Rose Sachet Pitcher
1959
All that's left of an entire dinner set. When the Whittier Narrows quake hit in the 80s, the pitcher took a major tumble and was the only piece damaged. When the Northridge quake hit in the early 90s, the entire set came down and all that survived was this pitcher. Since then it's been through quake after quake and yet it remains. I'd like to think it's s strong testament to what once "was".Thanks for stopping by and saying "Hi!". I hope you have a great day!

Beautiful piece. I can't imagine losing the entire set. I think I would have everything glued down. I've never dealt with quakes before!
Hi Rechelle....your new header is so pretty, I love it!

That pitcher must be part Timex (takes a licking and keeps on ticking...). Glad you still have once piece that hasn't met its demise.
Wow...I have never felt a quake.

Hi Rechelle,
Only the "strong" survive!!!
Guess you were meant to keep the pitcher :)
I don't even know what the "followers" thing is about or what it does...do you??
Almost the weekend...
Warmly,

It is amazing this pitcher survived after 2 quakes. I can only imagine what a nightmare that must have been. I love the little flowers on the side, so pretty.
