Still in use wedding presents.

Small Old Hall stainless steel teapot, gift of four engineers I had worked for, in daily use for 59 years and still going strong. Assorted “best” china and glass though no complete sets of anything, various steel dishes and carving dish, and a red dustpan surviving from wedding present days. And an ottoman, recently reupholstered at considerable expense and originally bought by DH’s parents in 1927.

Great thread - a bit late to this . Married in 1981, still going strong alongside a gardening encyclopaedia, a slow cooker, a wooden salad bowl and servers, a classic white porcelain jug and some Pyrex dishes as well as our hi fi unit ! Probably some other things I have forgotten were presents! . The jug has had a huge amount of use and still looks like new - I’m amazed it’s never been broken or chipped. (Doomed it now ) .

We have a Sears electric knife that was given to us in 1962 still working! My husband uses it every year to carve the turkey at Thanksgiving. Unbelievable that it's latest this long without any repairs.

A Moulinex blender which has been used every day and is still going strong, a selection of Chance glass dishes rarely used chrystal vases and a chess set that was supposed to have been a fridge freezer,My parents next door neighbour gave us money for a FF but we got sidetracked by a beautiful chess set and bought it instead .We still use it . 46 years on but fidge freezer have been bought and died many times ,we think very fondly of the H family when we play chess .

I have moved house and Country a few times and am still using a set of tongs I was given in 1971, I actually put them into a suitcase once when moving, I cannot imagine being without them.

I have many, kitchen utensils, cookware, and a cane laundry basket to mention a few.

My grandmother bought an electric toaster pre 1970 and my mother was still using it until she went into care 5 years ago. Then my sister in law took it and still uses it daily 50+ years after it was bought and it has never missed a beat.

I have a roasting tin and Pyrex casserole dishes which were wedding presents in 1967, they are used almost daily. I have cutlery too used daily since we married.

Mine are from 1971

A Wedgewood dinner service (Petites Fleurs), canteen silver plate cutlery, towels, antique chest of drawers - and that from a small wedding and very few presents.

We were married in 1976 and are still using a Le Creuset casserole that was a wedding present. Our main set of China, bought for us by my parents, is also still in daily use. The company - Poole Pottery - only stopped making it last year when they went bust. I still have a chopping board which my mother was given for a wedding present in 1952.

The cutlery that we have used at every meal since 1978.
Pyrex casseroles and steak plates. The patterns have almost worn off.
Various crystal glassware, though no full sets now.
Two very thick bath sheets, in regular use and as good as new.
Lots of kitchen tools.
An electric carving knife.
A stainless steel carving set - knife, fork and spiked tray.
