I also tried gnomes and nymphs and woodland scenes since during that period there was one from Japan just labeled "woodland scenes" !!

Also, I did send info to Replacements, so I will post here if they turn up anything useful.

Well, Replacements did not turn up any useful info. They are adding a page for the pattern to their site, with a few of my pictures, in the hopes that others may find it and chime in.  We shall see, but it won't be a quick process if it ever turns up anything.

Was hoping you would find out !! I have ran out of ideas on what to call it !!  Just because there is nothing to be found now,, try to do a google search weekly !!  Things are always being listed and dropping off the searches !! It may turn up eventually !!

Good point, I will keep at it. I do plan to sell it, but I may list it initially at a semi-high price, and let it percolate while I continue to research for awhile. If somebody is willing to buy it in the meantime, well, that'd be okay too.

Glad they got back to you!

I just haven't ever seen even a hint of one like this!  I am sure someone will really like it!  Let us know if you sell it on ebay, etsy, etc so we can watch the fun as well!

FYI, it's now for sale in our Etsy shop.  Hopefully it's okay to post store links in here:

Still have not found any more information about it, though.

You have some nice things on your ETSY site!  Wondering if the "small loving cup" you have on there is actually a spooner.  Not all spooners had hooks to hang the spoons...in fact more than not, you will find spooners that people mistake for a sugar bowl without the lid with a silver tea set.  They mistake them for small vases in glass ware.

Thank you!

Interesting thought about the "loving cup". We do have a spooner with actual holders, but it didn't occur to me that the other could be a spooner as well. I'll give a second go to identifying the maker on that one.  Perhaps it will reveal some more details.
