TST Pharohs Green/Oasis Green

The super-mod Pharohs Green coffee server, and the remarkably similar Oasis Green cup and saucer from TST (Shades of Grandeur Ironstone).

You know, I've never seen

You know, I've never seen either one of these patterns. These are very cool.

Pharohs Green

Yea, I don't come across the pattern much. When I found the coffee pot I did a little research, but I haven't nailed-down the production date yet. Clearly it's a reuse of the classic Taylorstone line shape (found on patterns like Cathay). It certainly seems late '60s to me, but I would love to find out a little more concrete info. I beleive it to be one of the latest patterns in my collection (as far as production date).

Here is another item (on the Taylorstone/Colorcraft shape), the Oasis covered casserole.

Terrific find...

...ditto on not having seen this pattern before.  I love this server in the darker body color.

I have the creamer in yellow

I bought a Pharoh's creamer in yellow last summer for 25 cents and have researched it exhaustively, but could never find the pattern name.  Thanks guys!  I knew that if I just kept looking around i'd find out what it was eventually.
