It's collectible.
Somewhat ironically, I suppose, that really means sellable. The high point isn't the keeping part of the collecting--they're not collectibles without a resale value.
The colours are very pretty. But my platonic butter dish is nice and cheap. I don't need much more than this, but the thing is, I want five of them.
I don't get it, why do you need five butter dishes? They're not like plates or bowls, where you might actually be using more than one at a time...
(I really like butter dishes--I don't know what's up with that)
This is me and carafes or pitchers. I would be a creepy hoarder given money, storage and opportunity. Mmmmm, glass containers for beverages.

I could have different butters...
But mostly I just really like their form and enjoy looking at them. Having my eyes slide from dish to dish is very pleasing.
Pitchers. Specifically, white cream pitchers.
My mom had a lot of high windows in her last house. So she collected colored glass jugs and pitchers. They were very pretty when the sun shined through them.
I'm up waiting for a technician to come check my internet. But it's zippy again, so I am wondering if they did something remotely. But they haven't let me know they aren't coming....

I get a 404 from that link, Jesse.
Hmph. Try this one? [link] I just wanted to point out the actual URL. (And I edited the last post, so it should work now.)
