Sometimes the best treasure is under our feet

Sometimes the best treasure is under our feet, or in your pantry. I was looking for a plate/bowl to put fruit on
and found my mom's platter. I thought I should wash it since it has been in the pantry for a while. I flipped it over and found this.

I think she probably received it as a wedding gift back in the 50's.  I'm not going to hang it on the wall or put it in a china cabinet. I'm going to do what I do with all my other pieces and use it. If it breaks I will make something else out of it. Excited to find such a treasure. I'll probably be spending the day  flipping over every plate in the kitchen.
