Daisy Squares - Westmoreland
Named for the daisies that appear evenly distributed in a diamond arrangement on the bowl. Most often seen in the rosebowl/spittoon style shown left above, the pattern is many times found with different treatments for the shaping of the top such as flared and ruffled into a compote as shown on the right. Generally attributed to Westmoreland. Known in a rare amethyst, marigold and a light green usually identified as lime or vaseline.
Hobstar and Fruit - Westmoreland
Hobstar and Fruit is a pretty self-explanatory name: there are 4 hobstars in the pattern with alternating panels of different types of fruit. Fairly small size, 5 to 6 inches, and some colors bring good prices. The blue opal ruffled bowl (above left) and the marigold on milkglass banana dish are very desirable. Other colors found include marigold, peach opal, and blue opaque.
Intaglio Flower and Miniature Flower Basket - Westmoreland
There is little information on these patterns which are usually attributed to Westmoreland. There were two molds, one used for the small stemmed nut cup on the left which is called Intaglio Flower. The other mold was for the bowls on the right which frequently have wire handles to form a basket. This second mould is also used for miniature plates. The bowls and plates are called Miniature Flower Basket.

They've turned up in blue opal, peach opal, marigold and marigold on moonstone.
