Antique European Edwardian salad bowl made of oak with a ceramic insert. This particular bowl is full of age and character. Patina can be found on the metal pedestal and around the metal rim (both silver plat and brass accents). The ceramic bowl does not have any chips, cracks, or breaks, but does have moderate crazing and general wear. The oak surround bares separation at some of the seams due to expansion and contraction over the years, however these expansions do not compromise function or integrity. The ceramic bowl appears to be original to the set, but sets slightly loose inside the oak surround. A beautiful piece that is perfect for styling. Sourced from Lichfield, Staffordshire, England. See post photos for best description of condition. A silver plate crest can be found on both the front and back of the bowl.
Measurements (approximate): 12.25” W (handle to handle) x 10.5” diameter bowl x 7.75” H at tallest point, 5.25” base diameter
