This is lusterware (or Lustreware, depending on where you are in the world. It was popular about a hundred years ago, in the Art Deco era. I fell in love with it because my grandmother had some. These are not her pieces, but they are from about the same time period. I have an entire tea set--teapot, sugar and creamer set, cups, saucers and plates.
The quote in the picture is from my upcoming release, Giada Mazzi is Living her Best Life. I wasn't planning on releasing it just yet, but needs must.

Giada Mazzi is Living her Best Life
A Games We Play/Whole Latte Love Story
Life is more than just the lies we try and tell ourselves about what we’ve done and who we are.
I guess the truth is that I never stopped loving Ben. And I never stopped imagining how different my life might have been if he were only the person that I needed him to be, instead of the person that he is. Which is silly, right? I mean, truly; it’s laughable. Because if he were someone else, he wouldn’t be him. And the world is already full of people like that. What good is one more gonna do me?
Besides, if I’m honest, Ben wasn’t ever the problem. That was me. I was never the person he believed me to be. Oh, I thought I was, in the beginning. I tried hard to be, and that worked for a while. Sort of. But eventually I reached the point where I had to make a choice between living life for myself, or for everyone else.
And when it came right down to it…how could I not choose me?
