Flea Market Finds
Wall pocket
worth $150
By Dan D’Imperio
Q. Can you enlighten us about a wall pocket having a
needlepoint insert that we acquired at a local market?—Mrs.
G. R., Harrisburg, Pa.
A. Throughout the Victorian era the wall pocket was
almost as heavily used as the clothing pocket. One could be
found hanging in almost every room of the house, function-
ing as a catch-all for treasures and trifles. Most were home-
crafted. Jigsaw types proliferated, with many boasting
needlework or beaded design front panels. Others were
handpainted. As might be expected, they came in a variety
of sizes and shapes. A wall pocket often served as a lost and
found department, complete with Victorian details. Value
guide: wall pocket, needlework insert, 1880s, $150.
Q. Would it be possible to assist me in dating a flow blue
gravy boat in the Ophir pattern?—Carol, Des Moines, lowa.
A. Credit for this semi-porcelain flow blue dinnerware
service must be given to Bourne and Leigh, Staffordshire
potters of the 1890s. The embossed scrolling around the
rim is practically white, while the design consists of floral
sprays in blue against a background of small V's. Touches

Q. When was silver deposit glass fashionable? | just
acquired a sugar bowl and creamer possessing a floral
design.—Nan, Gainesville, Fla.
A. Around the turn of the century, when Art Nouveau
designs were the rage, silver deposit glass swept into style.
The name is most befitting because a thin coating of silver
was actually deposited onto the glass by means of an elec-
trical process. Numerous firms produced it, including the
Alvin Manufacturing Co., of Rhode Island. Needless to say
it proved ideal for silver wedding anniversary gifts! Silver
deposit glass, dating from the early 1900s, has acquired a
legion of flea market followers! Value guide: creamer and
sugar bowl, florals, circa 1910, $65.
