One collectible - presented two unique ways

Timeless and elegant, transferware tureens add a note of sophistication wherever they're placed, perfect as well-mannered organizers and impromptu storage. Mix and match colours and patterns for added visual appeal. Tureens are widely available, and can be found without their lids for as little as $5. These antiques, dating from the 1890s, were a bargain at $12 each.

IDEA 1
Create a floral focal point using a tureen-here we've planted pansies surrounded by moss.

IDEA 2
Tureens make elegant hiding places for your treasures. Place a silk scarf in the bottom to cushion jewellery before arranging each piece.
