Argyle Dish

Posted by Debbie on September 28, 2018, 5:44 pm

Hello all, this is a new find. It is a covered dish, I believe a vegetable dish. It has a mark that I have not seen before so I wanted to share it with the group to see if any of you are familiar with it. I haven't run across any marks with U.S.A on it.

Hi Debbie,
It is Argyle by William H Grindley. A very popular pattern made for almost 10 years, late 1890 s- 1900 s. Your piece looks like a covered vegetable dish.

Hi Debbie, welcome to the FBICC! I wanted to add a note regarding the "Patent Application" mark on your ARGYLE piece. Since you are a new member, you can access past BBN issues by logging in with your password. Go to the Mar/Apr 2013 issue, page 15. Bill VanBuskirk contributed to an article that explains what the Patent Application is. I think you will find it interesting-since we collect ARGYLE I ran a copy of the article to keep in our china cabinet for our own reference.

Thank you Judy for suggesting the article, I have read it and learned a little more about Flow Blue and realize that there is a lot more to learn. The help I have received from this message board had been awesome.
