Atterbury1889 Milk Glass Footed Lion Candy Dish on Dancing Sailor Lacy Base

Description

Antique Atterbury 1889 Milk Glass Footed Lion Candy Dish on Dancing Sailor Lacy Base
Patented
1889 by Atterbury Glass Company in 1889, marked on inside of lid.  This company was in business from 1859-1902.
This is a very nice piece in almost perfect condition with the exception of a teeny, tiny nick on the inside of the rim of the lid. It's barely noticeable and could probably be sanded down.
The lacy rim of the bowl portion is what is known as "Dancing Sailors" pattern.  It's really cool.  The lion is very regal.  If there's a Leo in your life, their birthday is coming up & what Leo doesn't love lions?
This one measures 8 1/4"W x 6 3/4"D x 6 1/2"H
This fine vintage item is offered with a fair and reasonable fixed price. My photos detail this item to justify the asking price.
