Re: Turners Oval Meat Serving Tray
<p>Not Much to tell really, they were one of just hundreds of pottery concerns churning out earthenware and ironstone for the American market during the late 19th Century. Here's a link for you:</p><p>http://www.thepotteries.org/allpotters/1010.htm</p><p>As far as value goes, not a fortune as it's badly crazed. At auction these often sell for under $125.00.</p><p>Lovejoy </p>
Re: Turners Oval Meat Serving Tray
<p>Thanks for the info. Not realzing how old it was-I have actually been using it for the last few years!</p><p>Now I'll put it away. Are pieces like this pretty common?</p><p>Thanks again</p>
Re: Turners Oval Meat Serving Tray
<p>Pretty much every household of middling income would have had a similar platter during the late Victorian era, generally the more elaborate the design the hoher it cost when new.</p><p>Lovejoy </p>
