Description

This is a hand-shaped ring holder that I'm guessing is porcelain but is not glazed. It is 4" tall and has pearl-like beads and lace like material on the wrist. According to letters passed down through the family, it was bought in 1848 in New York City. I am posting this for my mother and am using pictures she took. There is a makers mark on the bottom, but in these pictures its hard to decipher. She had a jeweler magnify and sketch out the marks and such on the bottom. She's curious of any information on this item.
