Don't have any, don't want any. I use the antique serving pieces I have, including my carnival pieces. My darling MIL tried to give me her silver coffee and tea service but I lovingly and respectfully declined. I explained that as much as I appreciated her thinking of me, I just wasn't a silver type of person and she should give it to someone who would love it and care for it. Then I asked for the old enamel ware coffeepot or something along that line which is more my style. Just so you know, we had the kind of relationship where we could be honest like that with no hard feelings. I loved her so much, and she treated me like one of her daughters from the beginning.
