Dessert bowl

Add to album

This glazed earthenware dessert bowl was made in the early 20th century, and possibly decorated by Edith W. Reid, whose name is hand-painted on the base.

The rim is moulded with a band of three-leaf sprigs of foliage. In the centre is a circlet of two flowers, leaves and branches.
