I so love collecting English Iron Stone, so wonderful and rich are the pieces and this gorgeous vintage ironstone Gravy Bowl with the matching Tray is certainly a collector’s item and would be an attractive addition to any collection.
The Gravy Bowl measures as follows; 6 5/8 inches long, 2 ½ inches wide and 3 ¾ inches high over all; the inside measures 3 ¾ inches long and 1 1/8 inches wide; the base of the gravy boat measures 3 5/8 inches long and 2 inches wide. The Tray to the Gravy Bowl measures 7 inches long and 3 7/8 inches wide and stands ¾ inches high from the table. Please examine the pictures as this is truly a vintage and certainly a vintage piece with a small chip on the tray and there are some pits to the Gravy Boat as well showing its age. Both pieces are marked with the numbers 7994; one is mark is clearer than the other however the marks can be seen on both the Gravy Bowl and the Tray.
Though one would traditional place this Gravy Bowl in a China Cabinet, I would add this to a collection of all "white" vintage china, porcelain, and additional white stoneware and place the collection in an English Welsh Dresser. Or place this piece in a powder bath filled with small white scented soaps. Another idea is to use this Gravy Boat as a vase, creating a fresh small nosegay of petite white miniature roses. White always gives a sense of elegance and "clean", so neutral this delightful vintage Gravy Boat could be used in many locations, so beautiful with the raised embossed floral pattern a true beauty.
