UNKNOWN GLASS COMPANY PATTERN No. ...9 (OMN) by Unknown Maker (Unknown Location, Operated: Unknown), c1891 Introduced
• AKA: Big Button
NOTE: Big Button is an AKA…. the OMN is not Pioneer's No. 9. Pioneer was a decorator and did not make glass but they did use the OMN in their catalogs. We know that the OMN is No. 9, we just don't know for sure who the maker was. Heacock speculatively assigned the pattern to Crystal Glass Co. of Bridgeport, OH. He could be right. He also could be wrong. The key difference between the similar Block & Lattice and Big Button is that the tops of the hexagons on Block & Lattice are flat and those on Big Button are pointed. The No. 9 aka Big Button cruet appears in wholesale catalogues as early as May 1890 (C M Linnington)
NOTE: Cruet handle is the same as NATIONAL GLASS CO. No. .100 (OMN) royal works
