| Information on "Kitchen Prayer Ladies" |
| The Enesco importing company located in Elk Grove, Illinois marketed a line of kitchen novelties in 1960’s that they called “Mother in the Kitchen.” Today they call them “Kitchen Prayer Ladies.” Some of these are hard to find. Each one looks like a “Mother” and is wearing a long white apron with a prayer on it. She usually has on a pink dress, but if you find one in blue it is harder to find and is more valuable. You can add 30% to 50% more in price if it is a blue dress. If you find a dress that is white with a blue trim you can add 10% and 20%. These novelty items are made in Japan. Some of the items that were made are spoon holders, s & p shakers, sugar & creamer, spoon rest, soap dish, toothpick holder, teapot, & bell. The information for this article was taken from The Garage Sale & Flea Market Annual book, the 12th. Edition. Please click here to see the "Prayer Ladies" items that we have for sale. |
