hey Fellas , Thanks for sharing your finds with us. The plates are so beautiful and it is nice that they will be used and loved for decades to come :)

I love all the old games and the beautiful china! Alex would be in heaven playing the games.

It was a fun auction. Alex is welcome to set up a game night when you come and visit 😘🥰😘. I want carrot cake by the way. ❤❤❤

If you want to restore the little lid with the broken knob you can use a product called Milliput. It is a two component epoxy putty that you can knead into shape and it sticks to your damaged porcellain and becomes hard and waterproof. I used it a lot on damaged old earthenware and china. You can get it in various colors, white, blue, silver, terracotta, yellow and black and you can even mix them to get other colors. It is not expensive and really great stuff, even sticks on wood if you want to restore a missing piece of woodcarving.

Yes, we have milliput. Martin and Margaret brought us some from England. Thanks! 😊

Change the purpose of the soup bowls to salad bowls and you'll use them much more frequently and get to enjoy them. I vary all kinds of uses for my china. They could even make a nice pasta dish. Good find!

Wonderful haul of unique dishes. Especially like the ones with musicians on them. The dressing table is beautiful too. The curtain has a very pretty design that you can use in so many ways. So happy that you get a break from the hard work and enjoy an auction. Good times ❤

My parents came to America from Germany after the war and we always had soup before Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner and it was always delicious. Unfortunately my sister-in-law and I don’t do that.

What fun items! And game night is ready to please just about anyone now. 🙂♥️ A pretty little piece of furniture too.

I would love exploring the Chateaus around France. The hand painted dishes are beautiful. Dashing out the door, but so enjoyed my morning cup of tea with you. 😘😘

That was so funny I admired the table cloth thinking that could do with an iron at the same time as you both popped up and told me don’t mention that it needs ironing🤣🤣🤣

Oh my are those dishes beautiful Patrick and Stuart. Lovely tablecloth too, cherished gift. The games are so nice and I’ll bring fun to all that play. Before TV and Internet… what a concept… Have a lovely weekend coming up to the both of you . ❤❤❤

Putting the table together with your new place settings was so beautiful. Very elegant on a monogramed table cloth. Very nice !!! Enjoy

I have some of those plates!!! The ones with the birds. And too some Quimper. I’m green with envy. I love, love, love the musicians! And that build up of dust doesn’t take that long to accumulate. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

What a wonderful haul of table ware, and the little dressing table is such a good find

Love the china and the board games, they will be lovely to put in a quiet corner for visitors to discover.

Your purchases are wonderful. And the old games are quite beautiful. So now I know what you will be doing after dinner with all of your spare time!!! Ha ha! I love the plates with the unique patterns and the monogrammed tablecloth is a lovely gift. It must be fun purchasing items from other chateaus. As always, it was a fun video and always nice seeing you both. Hugs.

Love your wonderful new (old) dishes. Even the dusty and cracked plates that have hung on the walls of that beautiful old Chateau - imagine the lives those dishes have witnessed. And now they have all new and wonderful adventures to observe from your walls. Great episode!

I also wanted to mention that we use our soup bowls as PASTA BOWLS! It's a perfect combo... Cheers!

Wonderful hand painted dishes ..They will be appreciated from friends,family ,when set..

I loved all the crockery, could you hear me saying ‘wow’ ? It looks beautiful on the table and is destined to provide no end of pleasure - especially to the diners eating from it! Take care xx

Good morning Patrick & Stuart, The chateau de Soulge looks so beautiful and the mazing trees on the property, I wish that woman all the best. She has set a target hopefully she will reach it! Again, the items you bought are fabulous, such beautiful porcelain, a good ice breaker at the table, I was thinking, it will be so smart with a view candles and flowers. The 'old' stuff is so grand. I find with the cotton fabric after washing to iron whilst still damp and believe it or not, starch it lightly!! Yes, I can't believe I thought of starch, still iron whilst damp. Why I mentioned this, I don't know as you are on top of all your house projects, but there you go. I looked at the 'dirty' plates and thought, a bit of soaking in some hot soapy water and they will be as clean as a whistle. Soap and water works for everything. Your Dutch visitor looks so nice and I can picture her here in S. Africa. So many people of Europe came to settle here, so I am quite familiar with their looks and their culture. Life can be so interesting, it depends how we view things. That vanity table is so nice, a bit of sanding or cleaning will make it looks brand new. How about placing that in your project room you are working on right now. It is such a space saver, and it looks delicate, so it won't be in use every day of the year. Thank you for sharing your chateau life with us, I am still enjoying the journey with your and Stuart, new happenings all the time. Be happy as always, many blessing, kind regards, Elize

That was on the wall for a long time ……had me in stitches Stuart! 😂😂😂 And you are so right Patrick, soup is never a popular choice 😝😂😂😂 hence the good condition of the bowls 😉😂 It all looks amazing after a good wash. Table looked beautiful all set out to show us how it looks. See you Friday boys, take care 😘

Love the china you found! So pretty and the artist was very talented. Wonder how long it took to paint the set!

I love your purchases!!! The dishes are lovely and they sure made your table setting look spot on! I crack up when you get ahead of those making remarks about things, e.g., wrinkly tablecloth!! You're both so quick!! I can't wait to come to visit your lovely Chateau and have a dinner made by you two and using those lovely dishes placed on a wrinkly tablecloth!!!

Love the collection of china - how fun to go through them all, regardless of the "extra spices". LOL 😂 I was always scared to that the plate hangers off. I once had my hand cut badly because one spring off the plate and whipped right into my hand. I have never seen a cake stand on the wall either. I have a soft spot for cake stands. I would take a picture of the patterns and keep them on your phone because one day you could be at a brocante and find a piece to go with them. The curtain has a lovely pattern, it will be so lovely when hung. The vanity is delightful! It really is so usable because it has lots of usable space. The gaming stuff is so fun! I am so bad at games, dyslexia and dyscalculia didn't help LOL 😂

Wonderful buys at the auction. Absolutely lovely. Id research the Chinese footed stand and two plates, people had a tendency to hang pieces they didn't want broken. How wonderful if it's worth a fortune. Thank you so much for sharing another bit of your lives.

Très belle table, c’est toujours joli de faire une belle table avec une belle nappe bravo 👏👍😉💜

Once again i have tableware envy!!! All beautiful especially the single pink one at 11.44 ,pity there wasn't any more of them . The tablecloth has my initials on it so i want that !! 😊😊😊

Aaah Boys!!!! You have found amazing treasures!! Well done!! To think each one of those handpainted plates took how long to paint? That is soooo amazing...the furniture are such a pleasure to behold!! You guys have good taste!!! Well done!!! One thing about castles and chateau's are the dust!!

Those plates look great 😁

What glorious plates! Just beautiful! I really love old skool deep dishes, especially for autumn and winter, they are not for soups at my place but used for pasta, for swedish knödel, great for your Schwein haxe, your Coque au Vin, your Bœuf Bourguignon, Bouillabaisse and any yummy stew, tagine with couscous, you name it! I use mine alot, although the huge set is now kindof worn to oblivion (I'd loooovebto find a better replacement in France omg...). A big smack on your bottoms for not showing the fabric properly! It looked divide the very little I could see of it, I really want to see a good slow closeup of the pattern, it's so pretty! 😭 You should send for a goid quality Kintsugi set to have on hand! It makes the cracks and chips part of the art! Also, don't use old wirehangers. They are often the cause of the cracks as they arent padded where the wire holds the plate, invest in good flexy hangers that dont have metal directly on the pressure points of your plates. The linnen table cloth was beautiful and went perfectly with the Faïance! You should make your own lovely linnen napkins to go with the beautiful pottery. Bye some damaged white or unbleached linnen damast table cloths, when there's a stain or two they're dirst cheap. Buy a few in the same color (different damast patterrns dont matter, actually looks nice in candle light) and cutnthem to a good size and trim with good maschine washable lace or ribbon (or both) in colors that coordinate with the sets for a matching pop of color. If you dont want white napkins you can dye them in a color from the painted plates and trim with off white instead. Great project for a rainy day before Christmas preparations! What a brave young lady taking on a dilapidated 14th century chateau! Hope we get to meet her down the line! It's hovering around zero C here, a few plus in daytime and biting winds. Enjoy your lovely weather boys! I'd swap in a heartbeat for sure. I'm always raging against the dying of the light up here. Mme Malplacé sob song and here's a tiny violin too 🎻. 😘👌
