Hold on to your seats….Are you ready for ”Thrifty Finds Thursdays”?
Okay…I’m so excited I can barely communicate with you all! Many of you follow me on Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Bemyguestwithdenise where we Part-Tay! Sharing and inspiring you all is what I live for. I want to start sharing my unique rock bottom items I get throughout my travels, and share with you how to use these items in your home. You don’t have to pay full price to entertain beautifully.
Have you ever heard of NAMBE? Their award winning design is known for their beauty. They sell high end serveware, home decor flatware kitchen items. This Vintage NAMBE 528 Classic Tri-Corner Bowl with wood Salad and Fork Servers.
The back story….
As, soon as I enter into to our local flea market. I saw this silver bowl with wood and silver on the salad server handles. It was simply stunning. Anxiety kick in full throttle. I had to get a closer look at it for sure. I just knew it was going to be a lot of money. So, I went along with my motto…”a dumb question is one not asked”!!! I drove in for the plunge. She said $5. I would of happily given her $10 or more it was just that beautiful. I mean it was brand new. Instantly…I could picture it on my ”Summertime Tablescape” along with other treasures I found.

As I often do…. after a trip from thrifting. I get on Google to see who’s the manufacturer and how much it’s worth. Well…to my surprise and maybe…yours it’s worth between $179-$198. My eyes almost fell out of my head. Super duper score.
A little history….
It was designed by a sculptor by the name of Richard K. Thomas. He also design the iconic butterfly bowl. What’s so unique about this bowl is that the metal is made of alloy. It retains heat and cold and it will not crack, chip, or tarnish. It’s safe to use in the oven and even the freezer. But…not in the dishwasher or microwave. How awesome is that? Perfect for those summertime parties we will be having. Perfect for keeping salads, and fruits ice cold.
Was this meant to be? Yesss….I also came across this Stainless Steel Salt and Pepper Mill at Goodwill for $4.99 for the set. It’s well made and it sooo….heavy. It looks great with my Vintage NAMBE Classic Tri-Corner Bowl with wood Salad and Fork Servers. My tip of the day…before heading out to the a retail store. STOP! Check your local Goodwill and/or thrift store. See how you can make it work in your home. If all fails then go retail.
Check back with me next Thursday to see what I have to share with you! Kisses…my love bugs! 🙂
