Melanie’s Collection STORY
When my husband and I got engaged over 30 years ago, we chose a china pattern we absolutely loved, only to find out soon after creating our wedding registry that it had been discontinued. The registry manager tried to talk us out of it, insisting we’d never be able to collect the entire set, but we stuck with our decision. Decades later, we’ve proven them wrong by building an incredible collection—and my husband and I are still collecting today.
What makes our pattern so special is its uniqueness, with pieces you just don’t see in most china sets: oil and vinegar bottles, beautifully designed beer steins, and the crown jewel, the elusive hibachi table that we strive to find daily. We’ve embraced the idea that this will be a lifelong journey, finding joy in every new discovery and knowing there’s always another treasure waiting to be found.
