<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sandra, post: 432513, member: 3335&quot;]In Victorian times, the Scots enjoyed a game called Carpet Balls.&nbsp; The balls were approx. 2-3 inches in diameter, made of solid ceramic, thus quite hefty.&nbsp; They were hand decorated with stripes, small florals and most frequently, horizontal and vertical lines to simulate plaid.&nbsp; As they were solid, there was no air hole to allow heat to escape in the manufacturing process.</p><p>In the 1990&#039;s. The Christmas Tree Shops in the Atlantic area carried bins of reproductions of these carpet balls, decorated in a variety of patterns, some even simulating flow blue.&nbsp; These balls were hollow ceramic with the vent hole.&nbsp; I don&#039;t recall seeing any patterned like yours at The C.T. Shops,[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
