Description
I purchased this at a tag sale the other day, and was wondering if anyone has any information as to its age, purpose, or value.
The piece is 8" tall by 5" wide, and has a beautiful semi-matte drip glaze in ochres and greens, It still has a partial paper label attached to the top tier which says: "WILE SONS & CO Inc, SOLE AGENTS FOR THE USA, IMPORTERS NEW YORK NY" It's in excellent condition, with no chips, cracks, or crazing.
There is a little information on Julius Wile Sons on the internet, but I can't find anything on this particular piece.
I believe it is probably imported from Europe in the 1930's, and held some sort of liqueur. But that's just a guess.
Any information would be gladly appreciated!
