c. 1890s-1910s; Henry Alcock & Co. – Cobridge, Staffordshire, England

Flow blue covered butter dish in the "Touraine" pattern.

This Victorian covered butter dish by Henry Alcock & Co. features a domed lid with a looped finial and a matching underplate with scalloped rim. Both are decorated with cobalt floral transfers softened through the flow blue process, framed by a bold cobalt border with traces of gilt highlighting. Designed to hold and present butter at the table, the dish reflects the Victorian emphasis on fully matched services where even the smallest table functions were given decorative refinement. St

Some stains and an "in-the-making" glazed chip.
