Did you know?
In 1883, Governor McDaniel led a movement to build a new capitol building. The legislature subsequently passed an act to provide for construction of the current capitol and named McDaniel chairman of the Capitol Commission to oversee its construction.

Recently, our University of Georgia student intern Monica Mazurek presented her research on the historic McDaniel-Tichenor House at the annual CURO Symposium (Center for Undergraduate Research) โ€”an event that showcases excellence in undergraduate research at UGA.

Monica is pictured alongside her mentor, Dr. Kim Rich Meister, Professor of Textiles, Merchandising and Interiors in the College of Family and Consumer Sciences, and UGA President Jere Morehead.

Weโ€™re honored that Monica selected the McDaniel-Tichenor House as the focus of her project.

Her research poster will soon be on display at the houseโ€”come visit and see her work up close!

A little more background info on our "Tichenor Treasure" post from Tuesday...

Royal Crown Derby was known as Derby Porcelain until 1775, when King George III granted the factory the honor of being able to incorporate a crown into its backstamp - becoming Crown Derby. In 1890, Queen Victoria awarded Crown Derby the royal warrant and the company was renamed Royal Crown Derby.

A demitasse set for 8 is displayed in the Burney Heirloom Cabinet in the Dining Room. A demitasse (/หˆdษ›mษชtรฆs/; French: "half cup"), demi-tasse, or espresso cup is a small cup used to serve espresso. It may also refer to the coffee served in such a cup, though that usage had disappeared in France by the early 20th century. The collection includes 8 matching dessert plates.

Demitasse Cup/Coupe Saucer:
8 x $50 (2024 Value) = $400

Dessert/Pie Plates (Flat):
8 x $42 (2024 Value) = $336

Total: $736

Royal Crown Derby Imari Traditional was first introduced in 1887 and was based on an earlier pattern made in 1880. Like all the Imari range, sometimes referred to as 'Japan ware', Traditional Imari was influenced by patterns first sourced from the port of Imari on a small Japanese island named Kyushu.! ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ

A little more background info on our "Tichenor Treasure" post from Tuesday...

Step back to 1920 with Gipsy McDaniel Tichenor's exquisite Mason's "Chartreuse" Ironstone collection! This stunning set features 55 pieces including dinner plates, teacups, and unique octagonal dishes.

A true treasure valued at over $1,000 today!

Masonโ€™s ceramic ware produced between 1842 and 1883 featured a diamond-shaped registry mark, either impressed or printed. This mark contained both numerals and letters, indicating that the shape or design had been officially registered at the Patent Office in London, protecting it from copying for three years. The recorded date signified when the design was introduced, though not necessarily when the item was manufactured.

The presence of the word "England" suggests that the item was made in or after 1891, aligning with the American McKinley Tariff, which mandated country-of-origin markings on all imports to the U.S. The phrase "Made in England" typically dates an item to around 1920 and was used in addition to other factory marks.
