So when talking about copper luster I was just trying to think of what when I started appreciating this type of pottery and it was I can tell you I went into a women's house right here locally. She showed me her collection which was really a massive collection, it was really exciting to see she had them lined on the top of her kitchen cupboards along the top all way around the kitchen. She had them displayed on her counter top, they were everywhere, they were in the cupboard's themselves, she had larger pieces on the floor and it was an overwhelming experience. When you never seen this types of wares but for me that was what got me interested initially and I thought boy this was really together collectively a really nice way to display a collection. It was the biggest collection that I have ever seen. So that's what sparked my interest and you may find another reason or someone might of given you a piece and you want to find a little more information about it. But for whatever reason you have a passion for collecting this copper luster there's a lot out there that you can collect and there's a lot of different ways to display it. So this is just a small sampling of what's out there. So enjoy your collecting.
