Title: Wash Basin Set Pitcher and Bowl Need Help with age and maker. Thank you!
Post by: wyogems on June 15, 2015, 04:37:28 PM

Can anyone help me identify the age or maker for this Pitcher and bowl wash basin set? I would really appreciate it. It has the mark of A07 in an oval on the bottom of the pitcher. Thanks in advance

I have looked for your mark and have not found any mfr. who used this as a factory marking !!  That is not surprising,, many sets like this are unmarked !! My best guess is that it is early 1900`s but exactly when it was made or by who is unknown !! The AO7 on the bottom is likely a style number and would only be useful to those making the sets !!  Sorry but that is about all I can help you with !! Its very pretty,, is it a family item ??

Hi Thank you it is an item I picked up at a sale. I am going to try and sell it. Do you think this iron stone transferware?
