Get That Retro Kitchen Charm with Jadeite
March 08, 2024
Hey there, kitchen cats and vintage vixens! If you're like me, you get a kick out of that sweet, retro style that just screams "diner milkshake" and "sock hop." One of my favorite ways to bring that old-school charm into my home is with jadeite – that gorgeous, milky green glassware that ruled kitchens back in the day.
A Little Jadeite History
Jadeite was all the rage in the 1930s through the 1950s. Companies like Anchor Hocking and McKee made those iconic mixing bowls, shakers, and Fire-King mugs we all know and love. But finding authentic vintage jadeite can be pricey, and those old pieces can be a little delicate.
Tablecraft to the Rescue!
Well, hold onto your poodle skirts, folks, because Tablecraft has stepped in to save the day! They make incredible reproductions of classic jadeite pieces. You get that same dreamy green glow, those lovely retro shapes, but with modern-day durability.
Why I Love Tablecraft Jadeite
- The Look: You'd be hard-pressed to tell the difference between a Tablecraft piece and a true vintage one. They've nailed the color and those classic designs.
- The Price: Tablecraft is way more affordable than hunting for vintage, so you can fill your kitchen with jadeite goodness without breaking the bank.
- The Durability: My clumsy self appreciates that I can use my Tablecraft pieces without worrying about chipping a priceless antique.
