That's right we have a full 12 piece set of the above Noritake China in the Adagio 7237 pattern in pristine condition. It's a wonderful and beautiful Victorian pattern that grows on you with time. Not quite what either of us would have registered for, but classy none the least. After some due diligence we found that the company was not only still around but is still a well respected name in China. What was even more exciting when we checked out the Crystal company we found it was Cristal d'Arques, a very well known name in lead based Crystal. We have a set of 12 High Ball and Long Champ glasses as well as a few others. But even though they were also bought circa 1978 they are still in production, and are quite timeless.
And to top it all off the fiance also pulled out a full set of REAL silverware... I'm talking the snazzy stuff...

So this brings me to the real reason I am posting this... how do you thank someone for a ridiculously expensive (and complete 12 piece) China + Crystal + Silverware set, that was bought before you were even in the picture?
