This is a vintage, lidded bowl with handles from Hammersley, made in England and founded in 1887. You rarely see this in Japan. The lily embossing is lovely✩.*˚ The pattern is also wonderful, and the gold paint is thick and very gorgeous, the epitome of beauty✩.*˚ It's a luxurious dish that can be used for various purposes, such as for cooking, sweets, or as a fruit basket with the lid open. Just placing it in the center of the table makes it very glamorous •*¨*•.¸¸☆*・゜ Because it has a lid, it might be good for organizing mail. The condition is quite good, so it's unlikely that an item of this quality will appear in Japan in the future. And, it's quite heavy, so I purchased it at a very high price, including shipping and taxes from overseas, but I'm offering it at a low price. I'm hesitant to list it, so please understand that I may take it down. m(__)m Handles to handles: approx. 26cm Diameter of the bowl: approx. 21.6cm Height: approx. 18cm (including the lid knob) I'm listing various Hammersley items. If you are interested, please check my listings from time to time. I love Hammersley and have collected them from overseas. ★Condition★ The gold paint sparkles and is very lustrous, and it's an item that doesn't feel used. There is a slight peeling of the gold paint only when the lid is opened. It appears to have been stored in a cabinet, and it's in Excellent condition✩.*˚ ※There are individual differences in subjectivity, so please refrain from purchasing if you are too sensitive m(_ _)m About vintage and antique tableware Unlike recent items, small black spots, paint loss, and minor irregularities from the time of manufacture are generally found in all vintage items.
