Plymouth Patterns

There are several patterns with the "Plymouth" name. All the design are simple in the style of the colonial era. Here are some examples.

Manchester's Plymouth (1933)


Watson's Plymouth (1905)



Gorham's Plymouth (1911)



Gorham's New Plymouth (1900)

John Winthrop by International and Governor Winthrop by Frank Whiting

Bit of history - the "Winthrop Fleet" is said to be the name of the ship carrying first load of settlers to the new world (as in men and women to establish a working colony). Therefore the "Winthrop" name takes an important place in the annals of our colonial history. As we approach our traditional Thanksgiving holiday, I thought I would pay homage to Winthrop. There are several "Winthrop" patterns.  I posted on Winthrop by Tiffany earlier. As with most patterns, Tiffany's pattern is more ornate and sophisticated than the other patterns that are more in keeping with the austere colonial designs.

You may find pieces in some of these fairly plain patterns and not appreciate how old they are or maybe even that they are sterling. Don't let a plain design fool you.
