These were sometimes sold as "Gypsy Pot," "Witches Pot," or "Witches' Kettle". There is a story about these in the Degenhart book. According to...
Thank you, ola402 and scoutshouse. The color does appear to be very similar. Don
Thank you for the information, Cherryhill! Don
Hello Everyone! Does anyone know who might have made this toothpick. It measures 2 1/2" tall. No signature anywhere. Not sure if it's new...
Welcome SutliffMuseum - Yes. Mortiz Zdekauer (MZ) sold porcelain under the Hapsburg China mark. 1895 fits in the time frame for this company...

I would guess Empoli on the large stem. Don
Why don't you think it's Tiffin's Williamsburg pattern? Don
I don't think Fenton on this. To attack the calcium deposit I would use a toilet bowl cleaner that specifically targets minerals. Lime Away is...
Yes, Fenton. I believe it's the 6" footed bonbon in cranberry opalescent hobnail. Produced 1940-1952. @fenton can confirm or correct. Don
