    That one is Lunt's Mount Vernon (with the old Rogers, Lunt & Bowlen mark)...

    Almost looks like there might have been a little repair right there at the mark - anything show up on the front?

    Sue - there are always variations in the 'Repousse' type patterns, depending on which piece, and even on the same piece, the die-cutters seemed to change some minor details over the years. The comparison below has a fork from the Stieff site, Terry's piece, and the demitasse from Imperial Half Bushel, despite the variations - seems clear it's the same pattern. The last handle is Schofield's 'Hand Chased Rose', which kept the small leaves behind the top flower, the two roses with a spray of large leaves below, the small flower(s) and leaves (missing on the small demitasse), and the trumpet flowers, but it differs after that, omitting the lilies of the valley, and the rest of the stem more closely resembling the original Klank 'Hand Chased Rose', which actually was hand-chased, unlike the die-struck Schofield pattern.
