{25th Anniversary or Valentine's -- EVERLASTING SILVER ROSE for you!}

My dear German friend, Johanna Gehrlein, the author of the book about Rosen-Bestecke, (Rose Flatware) advised me to put my Giovanni Raspini <(click it) silver rose on, as a special and everlasting gift for a 25th Wedding Anniversary. Sounds good, especially for the upcoming Valentine's celebration as well. I myself was the lucky recipient of such an everlasting silver rose by my true love Pieter! He always reasons that this is far better than a nosegay of roses as these will last forever and thus are a very good investment! Look at my Zen Cart powered on line boutique Mariette's Back to Basics for this precious everlasting gift of pure romance!

Top right you can clearly see the mark of Silver Master Giovanni Raspin from AZ, which stands for Arezzo, in the heart of Tuscany in Italy.
They don't have this rose in their collection anymore but I still have a few left for some lucky recipient...

  4. Hallo Mariette,
    die silberne Rose sieht ja wirklich wunderschön aus. Silberne Rosen sind werden hier immer wieder gesucht als Geschenk für Silberhochzeiten. Ich wußte gar nicht, dass Raspini sie nicht mehr im Programm hat. Schade, denn die sehen toll aus und sind ein Geschenk von bleibendem Wert. Wie gut, dass du noch einige davon hast. Pieter sieht das ganz richtig, so eine Anschaffung amortisiert sich bald.
    Schöne Grüße, Johanna

  5. Liebe Mariette,
    schön und edel sieht die Rose aus. Ich wußte jetzt gar nicht mal, wann Valentinstag ist. Mein Mann mag diese Tage nicht so, da er sie mit kommerziellen Dingen in Verbindung bringt. Von daher schenken wir uns zu solchen Tagen nichts.

    Deinen Kommentar habe ich nicht so ganz verstanden. Oder ich habe mich vielleicht in meinem Post falsch ausgedrückt?
    Ich meinte, daß ich keine folienüberzogenen Gläser mag. Das finde ich sogar Betrug, wenn es nicht explizit deklariert wird. Denn mancher kauft im guten Glauben Farbglas, das gar kein solches ist sondern in der Spülmaschine dann schnell abgeht. Ich habe das leider auch schon mal erfahren müssen. War sehr ärgerlich!
    Was eine Klucht ist, habe ich vor allem nicht verstanden.

    Nun wünsche ich Dir noch einen schönen Sonntag und lasse liebe Grüße hier
    Sara

  6. That is so beautiful, I just love roses! Did you change your blog background? It looks pretty:) I noticed your link within is covering your first comment. I had that same problem when I changed my background. I wasn't able to fix it so I changed my comment setting to have the pop up box. It was the easy way out:)

  7. Hi Mariette, Mariette thanks for your always thoughtful comments and visiting my blog, really appreciate it. Whenever I visit yours and see your beautiful alternative, especially these last months have ofrese many romantic and delicate details in your boutique, the Italian Rose is a charming detail. Certainly the details of Johanna, with very interesting information about roses silver or china with a pattern of roses, I love everything that has to do with roses, to me is the only flower that represents the language of love, the sensitivity and female. blessings, Rose Marie

  9. Jetzt weiß ich, was ein Klucht ist, liebe Mariette. Danke dafür! Sogar in Wikipedia steht es - ich hatte nur noch nie davon gehört! Aber die Begriffe Posse und Schwank kenne ich gut.
    Dein Deutsch ist aber sehr gut, wie ich finde - trotz der fast 30 Jahre!
    Und dafür, daß es nie Deine Muttersprache war, ganz ausgezeichnet!!!
    Da käme ich mit Englisch nie mit, auch wenn ich das mal ganz gut gelernt habe. Aber ich habe es einfach zu wenig gebraucht. Dann verliert es sich weitgehend wieder. Es ist heute sehr anstrengend, zu übersetzen, das würde bei mir viel zu lange dauern. Dann benutze ich nur einen Online-Translator, der aber unvollständig und fehlerhaft ist.

    Liebe Sonntagsgrüße
    Sara
