FLOWER BAND (AKA) gil by Gillinder & Sons Incorporated (Philadelphia/Greensburg-PA, Operated: 1863-Today), mid 1880s Introduced
• AKA: Frosted Flower Band; Love Birds
NOTE: Sid Lethbridge: While we can't document (100%) that this pattern was made by Gillinder, we certainly can attribute (99.999%) it to them based upon the finial which appears as a paperweight in the Gillinder catalog from the mid 1880s.

NOTE: Sid Lethbridge: Each piece in the pattern has a different band-flowers or fruit. The only constant design elements are the two birds (covered pieces only) and the horizontal tree branch, oak leaves and acorns on the bases.
