Hello Dear Steemians From All Corners Of The Globe!
Today, I have discovered two beautiful ceramics to add to my fun collection. There is a charity warehouse that is open for public sale in our district. Items are donations from people who gave-up their home accessories or even furnitures, clothing they do not use any more. Articles mostly kitchen wares are offered at reasonable prices. At the moment, they are constructing a new building beside the old warehouse that would cater to a much bigger crowd. The name of the shop is Carla Nord and is run by Caritas Vienna which is a non profit organization. Proceeds of the sale are used to fund charity projects.
The other day, I dropped- by the warehouse and look at what was being offered or what´s new for sale. I found this ceramic plate made by Gmündner Keramic , a famous brand in Austria for its unique designs. I haven´t used it yet but it´s a good plate to hold fruits. My other find is this jar below... a grey ware, a vessel that could be used to hold grains. It´s quite small but I guess it will keep one kilo of rice. A round cloth with a rubber band as lid would keep the dust away. Or, it can also be used as a flower vase... In fact, it is absolutely a good vase for my wild flower arrangements.
These are my collection of the grey ware mostly wine krug. They are just fun collection and just bought each at a fraction of a cost.
There are huge vessels like these used by old farmers in the Alps. They use those huge jars for grains and potatoes which are kept in the dark to last over the wintertime. Those big jars are sold mostly in antique shops for lots of Euros.
These jars are lovely to use for my wildflower arrangements come Summerand I hope to pick flowers soon. Below, I used the grey ware as a vase for my wildflower arrangement. I think it´s perfect for this kind of arrangement and I hope you like it.
So dear friends , these were my discoveries for this week. Hope to see you again next week for another chapter of the Market Friday. I would love to hear from you and would appreciate any comments you will leave on this post.

We have those shops here in the states also. I have donated many times to them as I am going through my things and find that there are some that I no longer need. So, if I am not using it for a long time, I will donate it so that it can be loved by another.
I admit that I also go through them because you never know what kind of unique trinket you may find. Just like you are beautiful ceramic plate! That Shirley was a beautiful one and I am familiar with the brand. I wish it much luck in its new house!
I must say that the jar that you found is awesome. I bought many of these in Europe and I loved the gray Ware. G's fun collection and if I can get a deal on them, even more fun! I can see where they would be used for the trains in potatoes. I had a big one and it was made by and company up close to Canada and I know the resale value was expensive. This was so fun and I am so glad that you brought us to this place. I look forward to your very next post! I love your wildflowers in the Crock. So very beautiful!
Is it possible for you to link your post to my market Friday Post in the future? It makes it easier to find you and I can have all of the market Fridays together so people can find them easier.
I want to thank you for taking the time and effort to put a post together for this challenge. As always, I wish you another fabulous week!
#MarketFriday loves you!
