Chased Classic was introduced by Lunt in 1936. At first glance it looks to be more modern that 1936, then a closer look shows the detail in the design, which is much more popular in the older patterns. It has a straight stem from terminal to shoulder, thinning out gently from the terminal down. Embellishments of flowers and leaves adorn it.

American Victorian by Lunt
Another pattern designed by Frederick W. Koonz. American Victorian was introduced in 1941. A very feminine petite design with a trio of blossoms at the base of the terminal, an open area on the terminal suitable for engraving, a pretty stem, and another blossom and other embellishments on the shoulder.

Charles II by Lunt
Not to be confused with the Charles II pattern by Dominick and Haff I posted on earlier, this Charles II pattern was introduced by Lunt in 1934. And, unlike the other pattern which was designed by Gilbert Crowell, Frederick W. Koonz designed Lunt's pattern. Koonz also designed American Victorian and Modern Victorian for Lunt.
The design of this pattern consists of fruits and flowers at the base of the terminal and the top of stem. The terminal has an open area suitable for engraving. The embellishment at the bottom of the stem and on the shoulder is elegant and substantial. This is truly a beautiful pattern.
