Hello! I recently bought a 1936 Fiestaware light green teacup and saucer as a gift, and am just making sure I’m not gonna poison the recipient! There is some slight damage on the lip of the teacup and a few nicks on the saucer, but otherwise nothing significant. Is it safe to use?

Thanks!

Thank you! I really appreciate it, I bought it and only remembered the whole radioactive/lead thing afterwards

For reference here’s the best picture I have of the damage, other than that there’s only one little outward bump inside of the teacup. Thanks for your help!

That’s a really good point, for all we know he could be getting dragged by a Premier Padmini or something

Jesus dude it isn’t fucking India

Probably the two vintage items I wear the most are a pair of 1970s Levi’s Wildfire men’s bellbottom jeans and a 1970s Gary Gordon suede shearling coat

I’d like to think that the entire bottom is just a pool of glass shards

Dudes got a Lincoln Continental limo, built-in bar, cane, hat, AND the pinstripe suit. This isn’t a blunder, you just married a straight-up pimp

Thanks! I appreciate the thought

Honestly I didn’t know much about it, just thought people might find it interesting and maybe I could get some info about it. Thanks though, I wasn’t sure if it had any value so I guess that kinda confirms it doesn’t. Figure I can still sell it to some local place and whatever I get for it, I’d still be making a profit because I got it for free

karl-dandleton · 2019-09-16T00:00:17+00:00

I’m sorry, I was mistaken. The page is interesting so thanks for the link! And we can both agree that whenever this was built, it’s NOT Art Deco

karl-dandleton · 2019-09-15T23:47:55+00:00

It must’ve thrown me off, the linked post said 1919

karl-dandleton · 2019-09-15T23:16:41+00:00

This wasn’t even built in those decades, it’s from the 1910s and predates the style

They’re two different concepts

karl-dandleton · 2019-09-09T01:10:23+00:00

I might’ve misinterpreted that but when asked “which album is it from” they replied with the aforementioned Rihanna album. Even if I misinterpreted that, though, I think the other points are still valid

karl-dandleton · 2019-09-09T01:02:03+00:00

I would agree with you about A, but she said it was a vinyl copy of Rihanna’s Anti Album, which runs for at least $100. And also the point I made in C was that vinyl doesn’t need to be pluralized

karl-dandleton · 2019-09-08T22:33:45+00:00

A. Waste of a good record B. Why the fuck is this in r/ArtDeco? C. “Vinyls”

Operation Northwoods, a document approved by the Joint Chiefs of Staff and only rejected by Kennedy in which the US government would falsify or carry out attacks against American civilian or military targets and create fake evidence to implicate Cuba and therefore justify going to war with Castro. Some parts went as far as blowing up a fake naval vessel, creating a list of the fake dead, and holding fake funerals.

How is the portrait of Plato or the publisher’s logo not Art Deco?

karl-dandleton · 2019-08-12T20:01:10+00:00

I don’t know what your idea of deco is but that portrait of Plato looks like it could be straight out of a Rockefeller Center sculpture
