<p>[QUOTE="808 raver, post: 9571935, member: 4654"]If you post photos of the questioned Hoshiarpur items then I can tell you (hopefully) if they are antique, I suspect they were made in Hoshiarpur but if after 1947 plastic was used instead of ivory, like it or not, ivory is worth more because it's easily dateable so a close up on the white inlay would help as the patterns didn't change much over the years. If it is early, it could be worth a lot as this wear is getting quite sort after.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
