Surprisingly enough, I collect pitchers.
Mostly the tiny ones, so everyone can have their own hot syrup with the pancakes that I never make. But in my head, I know I could.
Anyway, tonight I just happened to stop into my favorite thrift store.
And I just happened to find this lovely Bailey-Walker vitrified china pitcher. It looks to be about 2 1/2 quarts. It was made in December of 1930, according to the stamp.
As far as I can tell, it is in perfect condition.
I really really like it. Really really.
I've fallen behind in my postings on my Simply Thrift blog (http://www.simplythrift.blogspot.com/) mostly due to poor lighting in this winter month. But, for this I set things up with a lot of overhead lighting and managed to get a pretty good shot. So, you can see even another picture of it over there!
Seriously. I'd sleep with it if it wasn't so cold.

Of course you collect pitchers!
That's a beauty!
I've recently acquired a love of white pitchers too . I currently have 5 but none are collectables, they are TJ Maxxables; but I still like them.
I'm am slightly envious of your find. OK, more then slightly.
I like the look of white ceramic. And every time I come over here for a visit and see the photo in your header of the white ceramic and pine cones, I think, ooh, what a great idea. So pretty!
