I love the displays of copper utensils in old kitchens, so I took a few pictures when we visited some châteaux during the week. The first is from Chenonceau.
The next from Villandry.
And finally my own, which are *sometimes* shiny!
I'd love to be able to have a display like the one at Villandry, but who would do the shining?

Lovely, and very shiny!
perfect choice. And you were thinking ahead during your visit :)
Great pictures! Perfect for today.
Beautiful these cupper pots ! It's a pity they won't fit in my kitchen !
Oh, I'm sure my husband would appreciate this very much. He loves to cook and would like to have his own set of copper cooking pans, pots and utensils.
Chenonceau, my favourite chateau in the Loire. I like Villandry too but for the gardens not the copper.
Lucky you!
Great stuff to display but I know I could never keep all of that shiny! :-)
Happy Weekend!

very impressive..my wife would burst with pride if se had a kitchen like that :)
I really like that first one... looks like it was made for that corner. Beautiful!
What a unique choice for this theme! Those are great photos!
Wow...the whole kitchen filled with shiny utensils. Who did all the polishing? It's a tough job though :P
Those are beautiful. It was great back then, to live with style and beauty like that (but what a lot of upkeep!).
Love the copper!! Those are beautiful! Great choice for "shiny"
Lovely and shiny photos! I love them.
Great choice! I love the middle one. My pots would never be so shiny, but they sure look pretty that way.
I went to visit my mom in the hospital and she has access to the internet so I tried to comment, but managed to get the whole system hung... trying again.
These are lovely copper pots, so shiny and I really like the color. I bet it takes a lot of muscle to keep these glistening and think of the polish...my, my!
Fabulous entry. These pieces really shines - also of history
What awesome photos, I love copper and how it photographs.
Thanks for stopping by!
