<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bakersgma, post: 31403, member: 59&quot;]You said that the spoons with the daffodil design also have the crane and pine tree in the bowls? The use of a crane is more popular in Japan than in China, but that may not be relevant since there is a lot of cross-fertilization, so to speak.</p><p><br /></p><p>There&#039;s no direct view of the daffodils themselves but the first thing I thought of when I saw them was the Rogers 1950&#039;s-70&#039;s silverplate pattern called Daffodil. See this link for a picture of it so you can see the resemblance.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.sterlingflatwarefashions.com/SPPatterns/1847Rogers2.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.sterlingflatwarefashions.com/SPPatterns/1847Rogers2.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.sterlingflatwarefashions.com/SPPatterns/1847Rogers2.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>That shell bowl/candleholder?/rest combo is very odd. I&#039;m sure there was some specific use, but I can&#039;t think of what it might be.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
