This last year brought some exciting discoveries to the collectors of Old Ivory, previously unknown patterns were found.
This Chocolate Pot was previously an unknown pattern number. Clair Fisher found this chocolate pot.
It is on the Florette blank and uses the same gooseberries as pattern #99. It has the Ohme markings on the bottom as well as #105. Clair purchased this chocolate pot with 6 matching cups and saucers from a seller in New York who found it at an antique fare.
It is the latest in new finds and goes to show that you never know when or where a new pattern will show up.
This Ohme Spittoon is the U29 pattern on an Eglantine blank.
This is the only spittoon known in actual Old Ivory rather than the clear glaze which makes it a rare find.
The piece is an olive dish on the "Empire" blank. It is 6" by 4 1/2" and is decorated with lovely lavendar and white orchids.
Although it is un-numbered, it shows us an entirely different pattern produced by the Ohme Factory. Now the search is to find one that has a pattern number on the back. The fact that this pattern has not been seen before suggests that it may have been an experimental piece, or just was not popular and so very few pieces were produced.
If anyone has a piece of this pattern, please Contact Us as we would love to find out as much information as we could about it.
