I have about 30 or so of weavings like that, but it seems we don't have an Indian basket weaving appraiser on here 
, but what if I posted a rug, anyone here know values or rugs?

Found out about it except value. any guesses?
A mark with that type of information on the back is always a 20th century mark (or 21st). Windsor Ware is a trade name used by a retailer in Philadelphia (Fisher Bruce Co.) from the 1930s to the early 1970s.

Antique Questions Forum / Re: Blue Willow like platter - Help (SOLVED EXCEPT VALUE)
« on: June 09, 2009, 01:48:26 pm »
Just got this on another forum but they aren't allowed to tell value. Anyone wanna guess?
Your plate is indeed decorated with the Two Temples II Reversed pattern. It is an example of an underglaze rubber stamp pattern by Southern Potteries, Inc., Erwin, Tennessee, c. 1917-1957. In the 1930's the name "Blue Ridge" was adopted. The shape is Trellis Shape -- a molded border pattern under a wash of blue. The factory name was seldom marked on the back of the ware; however, the retailer's name is often found. This information is documented on page 154 of "Blue Ridge Dinnerware, Revised 3rd edition" by Newbound. I also devote several pages in my self-published work: "Willow Ware Made in the U.S.A. An Identification Guide."

1920’s 30’s
In the 1920's or 30's my great aunt and her husband who was the superintendent of various national parks including the grand canyon, glazier, yusimiti national parks, accumulated Indian baskets and rugs. This is one of the baskets. Any information would be quite helpful!

Antique Questions Forum / Old Limoges French Ash/Cigarette Tray - Pottery or China?
« on: June 09, 2009, 12:45:52 pm »
This is a piece I just purchased for 10 dollars at the local consignment shop. I can't see through it but it is a very dark so I am not sure if it is fine China or not.
I'm wondering if anyone knows anything about the pattern or when it was made. The back says Limoges France and has a Circle with a cursive "D" inside.
The design pictures below is of a man and a woman with some trees and flowers in the middle and the outside is decorated by 12 or 13 Flordalees.

Bought it at a yard sale this weekend - Back reads Windsor Ware - Johnson Bros England
Then says
"All Decoration under the glaze permanent & acid resisting colors - A genuine hand engraving Pat: Pend:
In some form a very messy "51" was written on the bottom in lime green. Don't know if it was by the makers or by the previous owner. I have four pictures, they are below:
Thanks!

I found out that this is the Two Temples Reversed Center Pattern, not by the John Turner man. Not sure when though..

Antique Questions Forum / Blue Willow like platter - Help (UPDATED AND SOLVED EXCEPT VALUE)
« on: June 07, 2009, 10:42:10 am »
I bought this platter today at a yard sale and it has no markings of when or where it was from. The lady was nice and she gave me the background on a few other antiques and they checked out for the most part. She seemed more unsure about this one but thought it was from the early 1900's.
I believe it is older because it is a more simple design then the common blue willow dish.
It has only two people on the bridge and no birds LIKE a Turner Blue Willow but doesn't have the same border design as one.
I need any and all information you have about this specific design and what not. Thanks!
