| At one time, collectors referred to this pattern as Holly Whirl (above left) or Holly Sprig (above right). As both patterns are the same, given differences in size and variations in the center, many collectors now refer to it simply as Holly. The large bowls have the leaves covering the center, the Near Cut Wreath exterior, and a sawtooth edge (although they are known with variant centers). They usually have six ruffles although ice cream shapes have been reported. Smaller examples have the wide panel exterior. The bonbons or card trays are probably the most frequently seen shape. Compotes and rosebowls are very rare. | Large bowls, about 10 inches (Holly Whirl)![]() Amethyst, 30, 40, 65, 140 (all 2010), 50, 75, 135 (all 2011) ![]() Amethyst, ice cream shape, 280 (1996), 525 (2007) ![]() Green, 55, 75 (both 2010), 65, 100, 150 (all 2011) ![]() Green, ice cream shape, 150 (2002) ![]() Marigold, 40, 75, 100, 160 (all 2007), 70, 75 (both 2009), 35, 80, 90 (2011) ![]() Marigold, ice cream shape, 150 (2004) | Bonbons or card trays, 2 handles![]() Amethyst, 55, 150, 175 (all 2010), 25, 60 (both 2011) ![]() Amethyst, painted leaves, 150 (2008) ![]() Green, 60, 85, 115 (all 2010), 28, 45 (both 2011) ![]() Lavender, 50 (1998), 85 (2009) ![]() Marigold, 20, 35, 65 (all 2010) ![]() Olive green, 25 (2007) Bonbons, Isaac Benesch advertising on back |

| Nappies and 7 to 8-inch bowls are also common. Nappies are usually ruffled although some are round or have a three-in-one edge, or they may be tricorner. High crimped bowls as shown above are less common. The smaller sauces are not especially common. | |
