[QUOTE="lelliott19, post: 3210462, member: 1971"]Thank you so much for your help! :happy: I've looked at patterns until I am about cross-eyed and really appreciate everyone who has taken a look to see if they can ID this one. Yes the pattern along the rim where the blue is lighter is actually ridged in the body. There are also small raised swirls along the bottom, around what would have been the base of the cup. I took some more pictures in the hopes that you can make out the swirls. [ATTACH=full]296539[/ATTACH] Also, from this angle, you can see how the vinery extends down into a trail, like it does on the inside of the cup. Just in case you can't see the raised swirls in the two images above, here's a close up of that detail. [ATTACH=full]296540[/ATTACH] And one more of the pattern on the inside, correctly oriented. [ATTACH=full]296541[/ATTACH] Thanks again to everyone who has taken a look and offered advice and suggestions. I sure hope someone can identify the pattern. The idea of substituting another similar piece is a good one, but the same family owned the property from 1819 to at least 1905 -- so presumably the relic could be from any time in that 90 year span. I know my friend was pretty attached to this particular relic even above others that he has found. Im guessing he was attracted to it for the same reason I was -- the possibility of identifying the pattern, finding out when it was manufactured, and making a physical connection with an item that the family used. So I'd really like to identify the actual pattern, if at all possible.[/QUOTE]
