I'm not sure who made these, but I've seen quite a few variations on a theme, and reckon they could date back to 1950's.

Hi there Keith:
Any marking on the underside (inside bottom) of the Brass?  I had something similar here (sort of ??) and it had a Gold Foil Label on it stating it WAS MADE IN INDIA.

Thinking that Gold Foil labels were used more in that era of time.....

Now not sure if yours is older, and mine MIGHT have been a newer variation as when I had this (mine) I did find that mine was from around the late 70's/80's era.

Yours MIGHT be older..........But here is a Pix of the Pitcher that I had (and Sold)

I'm fairly sure the jug is from Holland as i had one the same stamped Holland. i can't remember the name of the company but i do remember there was a similar patterned one on the Gouda site.

Hi TC  :tgs: --- Nice to see you

Is the bowl in Keith pic ceramic (pottery) -- or Metal with a type of enamelling over it.  Hard to tell from Pix if pottery, or enameled covered brass.  Might it be that, or not??

Just wondering.... :-\

Pottery with a base metal stand,Keith.

Post by: Tigerchips on February 20, 2010, 07:12:35 PM
There may be other companies that used a similar decoration but since they both have added metal parts i would say they were both from Holland.

Thinking about these, I'm wondering if the metalware is made in India and the ceramic in Holland, and then they are combined somewhere?  So much metalware comes out of India that it's a possibility?

That what I was wondering too...
The pic I here posted of mine did not have a felt bottom (not sure if it did at one time) but because it had not felt on it, then bottom inside metal was exposed and that is where it had the Made in India label (gold foil).

Maybe the pieces were a *marriage* (??) of two companies making one product (??).  Does the felt lift up at all?

All three have a different base,the one on the left,after a wipe down,clearly says 'Holland' the felt base,stuck fast,has lettering that looks like 'Holland' and the other has the remnants of what looks like a paper label,can't find any made in India marks,Keith.

The Holland is on the ceramic part though Keith?
Title: Re: Another mystery,with metal stand
Post by: keith on February 21, 2010, 09:49:26 PM
It's like an unglazed part of the base where the metal is stuck to the bowl,it definitely says 'Holland'
Title: Re: Another mystery,with metal stand
Post by: Anne on February 22, 2010, 12:11:22 AM
That's what I thought, which supports my theory of Holland-made ceramic and India-made metal. :thup:  The metalware is often unmarked.
