I think the pattern is strawflower. It was made by a number of different manufacturers, all in Germany (as far as I know). I think production...
Thank you, Tallcakes! Don
Thank you, Cherryhill. Cased never occurred to me but that is probably correct. Don
Hello Board Friends - I have this cranberry basket I'd like to find more about. The basket stands about 7" tall and 6 5/8" at its widest. I has...
Hello Board Folks! I've got a divided relish dish I can't seem to ID. It measures 9 1/4" long, 7" wide, and a little over 1" tall. I thought...
Looks like it might glow. I'd blacklight it just in case it's uranium glass. If it is that can be used as a selling point. Don
Welcome Kirby! Like Sandra I'm getting a mid-century vibe. It appears to be a hand made piece most likely by a studio potter. I'm going to...

I really need to improve my inspection abilities. I didn't even realize it was engraved! As best I can make it out it says: Gary...
Hello everyone! I recently acquired this silver plate cup. It stands about 3 7/8" tall. I thought the ring along the bottom was decorative but...
I should have guessed that. I'm used to seeing the porcelain examples and haven't seen them in metal before. Don
Thank you, Bronwen! Don
