<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tom Mackay, post: 234082, member: 4589&quot;]SBSVC, thanks for searching !</p><p>It&#039;s very possible they&#039;re from an Asian design that was used for a number of decades. I say that because I know this was in my family quite some time before I was born. My Maternal Grandfather traveled much of the world as an agent /representative for a number of London businesses and they acquired a lot of stuff.</p><p>(We have pics of my maternal Grandma going up the Amazon on a steamer. What a vacation!)</p><p>Wiped out in the depression of 19-21 and he died. Hard times. Family saved what they could and emigrated to Canada in two waves. Youngest, daughter (my Mother) didn&#039;t get much.</p><p>Also, a decade or two back, I saw an item - new - in a store IDENTICAL to one my maternal Granddad picked up in China. </p><p>The experience did help to put &quot;things&quot; and &quot;stuff&quot; in a new perspective.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
