Greek Key, Northwood   Updated 5/6/2012
Greek Key is a traditional pattern used on many types of decorative items. It's used on a number of Carnival patterns but dominates the design of Northwood's Greek Key water sets, bowls and plates. The pitcher and tumbler have additional design elements, fan shapes above and hanging pendants below.
