This is one of my favorite finds from my weekend treasure hunt at the flea market. A victorian silver water pitcher. Beautifully designed with etched scenes of a polar bear on an iceberg, this makes reference to the ice cold, fresh water that would have been held inside.
Icicles surround the central design and the ocean water wraps around the entire vessel.
The bear and the iceberg are extremely detailed, so unique and charming.
This time of year is the perfect time to bring out your old silver. Whether is it is family silver or a flea market find, use your silver. Create a new use for a piece to give it purpose once again. Be creative.
This water pitcher will be stunning filled with flowers. There are some pieces, like this pitcher, that don't really need a purpose at all because their details alone are enough to include them in a seasonal vignette. Go ahead, get out your silver and enjoy using it.
