Description:
Fantastic early plate with country or brown bread underneath a glass cover, just the right size for a doll. This set is very early, sometime around 1865-75. The plate is hand-pressed bisque (therefore it is uneven)and the glass cover is made by the early mold/blown method--there is even an air bubble inside the handle. All in great condition. No markings as these early types of porcelain were generally not marked. 3 3/8" diameter of plate; overall height to the top of the cover handle is 2 1/4". The country bread is dark brown. All great looking and ready for the early doll setting. Came from a very early collection of kitchen accessories. This matches the other set with Scottish haggis, sold separately.
