<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DragonflyWink, post: 47404, member: 111&quot;]Pretty berry dish, most likely dates to right around the 1894 merger with Mt. Washington under the Pairpoint name, or just a bit later, from the 1890s into the first few years of the 1900s - will run through some other manufacturer and retailer catalogs for similar embossed and pierced pieces later...</p><p><br /></p><p>Might note - &#039;Quadruple Plate&#039; was used well past the 1912 date often suggested (if I recall correctly, from a Rainwater reference?), though some of the large manufacturers stopped using it around then.&nbsp; Pairpoint was using &#039;Quadruple Plate&#039; into the &#039;20s, and the the FTC was also fielding complaints on the quality of various manufacturers&#039; quadruple plate into at least the 1920s, several manufacturers had the term incorporated into trademarks that they renewed in the &#039;60s, and it appears on items by companies that weren&#039;t even in existence until the mid 20th century.&nbsp; Don&#039;t believe I&#039;ve run across any that seemed to date any later than the &#039;60s...</p><p><br /></p><p>~Cheryl[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
