Lozenge

Description

None

A strange two piece apparatus that looks like a mix of chemistry equipment and a light shade. Imagine a filter inserted into the top of a conical flask. Both filter and flask are ruffled and coloured at the top end. The filter is the size and shape of a light shade. Best guess - some type of flower holder with water in the bottom flask.

Two pieces - a bottom plate on which rests a flower vase. The vase narrows to a point about a third up, then widens again.

Design Number

3613

Description

None

The design is shown from the side and above. The overhead view is of five circles - one in the centre and the other four surrounding it at 45 / 135 / 225 / 315 degrees from the very centre. From the side the design looks like a small flower pot. I will take a guess at this being an early design for a flower frog.

14 MARCH 1884

Design Number

3614

Description

None

Again shown from the side and above, this is similar in scale to 3613. The overhead view shows a single circle in the centre with three ruffle or fan shapes at 0 / 120 / 240 degrees from the centre. I will have to guess this is some type of flower holder.
