My Melitta, Sphinx and Granit- stoneware


For a couple of years I've been collecting several kinds of stoneware from the fifties and sixties. I usually buy it at fleemarkets. Because I regard it a kind of sport not to pay too much for it, it takes quite a long time to get a nice collection.
I think this is a great hobby and I really enjoy looking at the things I've collected over the years. Because others might enjoy them too, here's a couple of pics of my collection.
They're quite a few pictures so loading may take a while. If you're into this kind of stuff you'll think it's worth your while, if not you may want to hit the Back-button.

I don't even drink coffee...Melitta-coffeepots ...
 

 ...and some more...There's no higher principle involved...


...I just don't like the stuff. ...and the last few. And Sphinx.

These mugs and plates are still being used every day.. Luckily these mugs are quite good for tea as well.
Somebody really envies me for these...This stoneware is Hungarian...
of the brand Granit. ...she even asked me how much I want for them
But I'd rather keep them for myself.   It gets rarer all the time..

These are the pics I took of my stoneware collection. I have more than this but let's not overdo it. This page is large enough as it is.
I still like going to flea markets and garage sales and I still add pieces to my collection every now and then, but having so much already, I've become more selective.
I just hope somebody might enjoy seeing all this!
