osnc pattern detail 2 Pattern description: This magnificent saucer features the entwined initials representing to official name of the White Star Line: the Oceanic Steam Navigation Company, or OSNC. The rim decoration is gold on deep cobalt blue. Provenance indicates that this particular item was removed from Titanic prior to sailing, and that this pattern was exclusive to the vessel.
Pattern notes: The saucer bears a registration number of 580303, which indicates (as one might have guessed) that this pattern was registered in 1911.
