<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DragonflyWink, post: 9790636, member: 111&quot;]Autumn was the pattern I picked out as &#039;my&#039; china pattern when still a teenager, and then in my mid-twenties acquired a rather large service for eight in a slightly unusual way.&nbsp; I managed a luggage and gift store through most of the &#039;80s, one of our popular lines was Hartmann Luggage, they had a points program for sales, I was a pretty good salesperson, and like many others in the company, had used the points for several pieces of their classic Walnut Tweed, given luggage and leather goods to relatives and friends, and still had tons of points built up.&nbsp; Then somewhere in the &#039;80s, Brown-Forman acquired Hartmann as well as Lenox China, and they started offering us china for the points, so of course, I ordered my Autumn service, which I still love (even named a long-gone Siamese-mix &#039;Autumn&#039; (usually called &#039;Tummy&#039;), because her beautiful eyes were the same lovely shade of blue found in the pattern)...</p><p><br /></p><p>~Cheryl[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
