Nachmann Crystal

On our wedding, a guest has brought us a bowl of beautiful Tiffany crystal.

It's very pretty, but we have so many crystal balls already. I lived in Europe for 5 years and, therefore, have as many high-quality crystals (Villeroy & Boch Nachmann, Bacarat) I really do not need more, and I did not I ' have a place to display them all.

Whay would you do:

1 - Returns and get a credit Tiffanny / refund

or

2 - Married life, a new life. Keep it and get rid of your oldest


3-Keep them all. They are all nice

4-Get rid of all ... who uses crystal bowls anyway.


What is your preferred option and why.

Thank you

Pack it in a safe place for a few years. It is classic and elegant.
We obtained many pieces of crystal high-end pieces of servingware, so we knew we would not use it right after we got married. However, as years pass, and you start entertaining in a different style - or just the circumstances are different, it is very nice to go into storage and leave something beautiful - a different shape, size, or for a other purpose than the ones you've already used. Sometimes just a change ...
I think the wives are simply too rushed and not think about the future with gifts, I do not know for some it is difficult to think ahead. But for example, you get two pots as gifts - some people think right away to "get rid" of one. However, in two years, when your coffee machine does not work one morning, he is rudely cool to walk down to the storage room and release a beautiful, new use.

If I were you I would have posted all because they can just come in handy one day! Flag

Back and put into Tiffany jewelry, P

I received tons of balls for my wedding, too. I just rotate them. From time to time I take a little different. Makes me feel like I made a mini redecoration.

You would not believe how much I candlesticks my wedding!

I think you can return it, since you have so much crystal you should not be a problem if you ever see the person again. You can get some new jewelry!

but I also think that .. one more isn't bad crystal people do not use .. If you throw parties .. people will think you are premium.

or .. why not re-gift? to that person, of course .. but if you ever encounter a wedding or an occasion where you need something nice, he presents.

I would like to return to Tiffanys credit / refund. Who really uses crystal bowls anway? How many bowls do anyone? We use only the bowls when we have company over, so why have a crystal? We buy seasonal products that are practical, so if they break not lose big. You get the refund and go buy food or shoes or something for yourself or that is really necessary

My marriage was plenty frames. I have a whole drawer. My suggestion would be to keep the bowl as well as new ones you've already purchased. If you do not have anywhere to display them now, you can in the future. Besides there are various other options -

As someone else suggested, use one or two dishes of candy or so and rotate them.

In parts (indoors) use the good things - do not wait for an opportunity, because at any time friends and family is an opportunity to collect.

Ultimately, there is always the "re-gifting option. While some will disagree with this answer, I say why not? Just make sure it is endowed with a person other than the donor origin and their immediate family.

I change.
