What is the oldest thing

you still use on a regular basis. Home or work.Mine is a 1940's radio I use every day. The sound quality is superior, only problem is I can't get all stations.

I have an engagement ring that belonged to my husband's grandmother.  She's deceased now of course, but she was engaged in 1946.  At the time there was only a choice of two rings because of the war and rationing that was still going on.  It's really lovely and is sentimentally valuable.

I have my grandma's and my nanna's engagement rings. I don't know when they were married, but I know my grandma was married before 1922 and my nan before 1932. But I don't use them, they are in the safe. I wore them at my wedding and at their respective funerals all in 1993.

That's lovely Crikey, I think these things are very meaningful xx

You've made me realise my error in the age of my ring. Bearing in mind my MiL is 87 it must be about 90 years old, not 100+ like I posted. Doh!

I didn't know my nan so well, but I had a lot to do with my grandma and I adored her, so yeah, her things are pretty special to me. I have a few of her things just things that no one else wanted when she left, but over the years people have offered to buy some of them, but I just couldn't sell them, no matter what.

I also have this little china sugar bowl thing that was my mother's great grandmothers, but I never knew her, so it has no significance to me, I don't even know how I ended up with it, but it's there in my china cabinet and my mother told me where it came from.
