Sure, being immersed into MUSHROOMS there has to be a SILVER ONE!
This is my personal collection on a Le Jacquard Français placemat...
Gold plated silver earrings in the shape of a mushroom; a silver charm with its lamellae beautifully worked in and a silver plated salt & pepper set.
Uploaded by the ISMS from the Mushroom Journal September 1978 ←(click link) is this on page 292
A solid silver mushroom charm, specially designed for the MGA (Mushroom Growers' Association) in connection with the Woman's Own competition.
Silver-plated salt and pepper pots are also included.
The charm weighs a quarter of an ounce.
Placed these silver mushroom treasures on top of two lovely Mushroom Cookbooks
To the left you find The Mushroom Cookbook ←click link

A bit closer for showing these treasures...
Again a different angle
Showing the top of the silver charm, with its ring for allowing the necklace to go through

And once more now with the silver charm being turned around...
Do any of you have Silver Mushrooms?

ReplyDeleteCara Olga,
DeleteGrazie e coppia sale e pepe viene dall'Italia!
Abbracci,
Mariette
Dearest Mariette,
ReplyDeleteI like those Silver Mushrooms, they remember me long times ago, when I was a child ... No, I do not have any ...
Wishing you a great weekend ahead, hope you both are well!
Love and hugs, Claudia xo
Dearest Claudia,
DeleteThank you and yes we both are well.
Hugs,
Mariette
I don't have silver mushrooms. But whenever we have Campbell's mushroom soup we think of you and your dedication to work.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Dearest Victor,
DeleteThank you, that is very kind of you!
Hugs,
Mariette
Dearest Mariette,
ReplyDeleteI love seeing your silver mushrooms.
I have a lovely glass mushroom a friend gave me many years ago.
Dearest Suzi,
DeleteThank you, these are quite special indeed.
Hugs,
Mariette
They're all lovely, Mariette, and best of all, not something you'd see others wearing (the earrings and charm, obviously). I do like unique, or at least unusual, jewelry!
ReplyDeleteDearest Kim,
DeleteThank you and yes, they are quite unique and I've loved them for many years.
Hugs,
Mariette
Hallo Mariette, best bijzonder om zilveren champignons te hebben. Heeft Pieter ook champignon manchetknopen? Fijne dag, lieve groet Willy
ReplyDeleteBeste Willy,
DeleteJa, heel bijzonder zijn deze en nee, geen champignon manchetknopen!
Liefs,
Mariette
I never even knew mushroom jewelry/accessories existed, Mariette. These are truly unique.
ReplyDeleteBlessings!
Dearest Martha Jane,
DeleteGuess anything can be found, if we only start looking for it!
Unique they are and we treasure them.
Hugs,
Mariette
Son muy originales. Con caulquier traje que te pongas, lucen bastante bien.
ReplyDeleteBesos
Querida Antónia,
DeleteSí, esas setas se hacen de una manera muy atractiva.
Abrazos,
Mariette
Awesome!
ReplyDeleteDearest Anne,
DeleteYes, they truly made awesome gifts!
Hugs,
Mariette
My dear, you have impeccable taste and a style that is uniquely YOU,
ReplyDeleteDearest Helen,
DeleteWell, this came as a gift from husband Pieter so I'll pass the compliment on to him.
Hugs,
Mariette
I, too, never knew mushroom jewelry existed!
ReplyDeleteThese are very pretty!
Dearest Veronica,
DeleteGuess everything does exist under the sun; only we must search for particular items.
Yes, they sure are pretty, thank you.
Hugs,
Mariette
I want to go picnic with two lovely pots.
ReplyDeleteDearest RTC,
DeleteThat would make for an elegant picnic, using these silver salt and pepper pots!
Hugs,
Mariette
I have to say no to that Mariette but I would love the silver salt and pepper set, do you use them everyday, I would 💜 Do you have a favourite mushroom recipe that you could share with us?
ReplyDeleteDearest Grace,
DeleteSince Pieter's open heart surgery we both have not been 'adding' salt to our food, so the salt and pepper sets are mostly idle. We live on a low salt diet.
As for mushroom recipes, you can check my Pinterest and my favorite recipe Risotto met Paddestoelen is in Dutch... https://www.pinterest.com/mariettesbackto/mushrooms-champignons-champi%C3%B1ones/mushroom-recipes/
No I don’t..but those are cute and so meaningful to you guys.
ReplyDeleteDearest Janey,
DeleteThank you and yes, we hold on to them, mushrooms have been the biggest part of our lives.
Hugs,
Mariette
What a beautiful collection. I love the detail of the lamellae!
ReplyDeleteDearest Peter,
DeleteThank you and indeed, those lamellae are meticulously done in silver!
Hugs,
Mariette
So interesting
ReplyDeleteDearest Jo-Anne,
DeleteYes, interesting and quite unique.
Hugs,
Mariette
