$207.03

THIS IS A VERY UNUSUAL AND PROBABLY QUITE RARE 19th. CENTURY POT LID COMMEMORATING THE CRYSTAL PALACE EXHIBITION OF 1851. I\'VE LISTED THIS WITH THE PRATT FACTORY PRODUCTION, HOWEVER I BELIEVE IT TO BE FROM ANOTHER MAKER AND BEING A POMADE JAR RATHER THAN ONE FOR POTTED FOOD - I\'VE SEEN A COMPLETE JAR AND ITS BASE IS ORNATE IN KEEPING WITH BEING A VANITY TABLE DISPLAY PIECE. IT IS DEPICTED WITH A HAND PAINTED OVER TRANSFER IMAGE (ANOTHER UNUSUAL FEATURE) OF THE CRYSTAL PALACE WITH EXTENSIVE GILDING THROUGHOUT. THERE IS A COLLECTORS LABEL TO THE UNDERSIDE.

IT MEASURES 3 1/4\" (8.25cm) Dia. APPROX. AND IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH NO DEFECT AT ALL TO REPORT, APART FROM TWO LIGHT SURFACE HAIRLINES TO THE UNDERSIDE EDGE (PROBABLY STRESS LINES AS THEY ARE SURFACE ONLY AND DON\'T SHOW TO ITS FACE SIDE ALSO THERE IS SOME LIGHT WEAR TO TO THE GILDING AT THE EDGE - SEE PHOTOGRAPH AND DETAILS.

THIS IS A LOVELY UNUSUAL EARLY POT LID COLLECTABLE THAT\'S IN GREAT CONDITION AND WITH A LOW START PRICE SHOULD GET CONSIDERABLE INTEREST FROM ALL COLLECTORS.
