[QUOTE="42Skeezix, post: 36492, member: 40"]The pattern is very unusual. I've always liked this type C&S. Had dozens of 'em over the years. I've never seen this very striking pattern before. Considering the size it must be impressive in person. Yourturn...The link you posted missed a very important aspect of the "saucered and blowed" practice, at least as far as Antiquers are concerned. Where did they put their cups when drinking from the saucers? Why CUP PLATES of course. Early nineteenth century cup plates in glass and pottery have been avidly sought since American Antiquers got goin' strong about a hundred years ago. These little three inch jewels may best be represented by the ever popular Sandwich Glass Co. pressed glass cup plates, circa 1824-1840.
