 Maries monogram
I am wanting to purchase china with the intertwined ma on it. Does anyone know where to purchase? Also where to see photos of all her monogrammed items.

 Re: Maries monogram
Hello michealangela, I'm sure you'll be reminded of this, but her correct name is Marie-Antoinette, Marie is like a prefix that all her sisters used. I had a quick search for monogrammed china and didn't have much luck. Although you can purchase a lovely 5 piece gold rim china set called "Marie Antoinette" http://www.adlersjewelry.com/Shop.aspx?pid=126&cid=2&scid=54 You can also purchase a monogram of Marie Antoinette brooch http://www.boutiquesdemusees.fr/en/shop/products/details/71-monogram-of-marie-antoinette-brooch.html Hope this helps!

 Re: Maries monogram
I am very new in learning about Marie-Antoinette but am already deeply obsessed with learning all about her life. I visited the Louvre 10 years ago and found a photo I had taken of a stained glass window with an intertwined MA .Was this from her life?

 Re: Maries monogram

 Re: Maries monogram
I embroidered my bath towels with her monogram as we share the same initials.

 Re: Maries monogram
Here is a link that has china, however it doesn't have Marie Antoinette's monogram this is indeed the royal company that manufactured the china for the Royal Family. I'm not sure whether it's Serves, or its a china manufactured to look like Serves. Or it may have been Limoges which is another old French china company!  . Here they are anyway! http://monticellostore.stores.yahoo.net/sevre.htmlhttp://monticellostore.stores.yahoo.net ... ieces.html

 Re: Maries monogram
I Will be ordering the glasses today!! Thank you so much for sharing the link. I love everything Marie antoinette. My husband is somewhat amused but knows how much I love to learn about her and her life. I am lucky my husbands name starts with M and mine with A,thus her monogram will be on as many things as I can owN! I am currantly working on a bed llinen set , all with her embroidered monogram. I am able to sew them out with my embroidery sewing machine. I wonder if Marie Antoinette would approve!

 Re: Maries monogram
You are most welcome. I like embroidery too so you get the best of both worlds, having MA's monogram, not having to pay more money to have it monogram. That's really cute (as to regards that your husband's name starts with an M and yours starts with an A!

 Re: Maries monogram
It is indeed!! I love it, they had a fabulous umbrella as well with different images of her around it, but it was not in my budget at the time. I will look for it on the link you sent me Thank you!!
