Maybe I can help. They were made by E. F. Johnson (don't know if they still make them), and I still might have a couple of them. The problem is I might have trouble finding them as I bought about a dozen some 15 years ago, but I'll look. They were ridiculously expensive, about US$18-20 each as I recall as they are porcelain and gold. Shoot me an email off-list. If I have any, you can have them. -- Larry W1HJF rapp at lmr dot com
