Antique 1920s Large Grimwades Paragon Blanc-Mange and Jelly Mould

A delightful large family sized example of the rarely seen Grimwades Paragon Blanc-Mange & Jelly Mould, dating from the early 20th Century.

This jelly mould dates to the 1920s. Produced by Grimwades, this company was renowned for using all available space on their kitchenware ranges to advertise their products and provide practical tips and advice on how to use them.

This example has advertising on both sides of the bowl, interspersed with a delightful floral pattern, for the similarly shaped Grimwades Quick Cooker.

This is suffered some minor damage over the years and has natural timeworn charm. There is a 4cm hairline on one side, which is tight and stable. There has also been a repair to the opposite side at the base. But this blends in with the coffee coloured crazing which is all over this mould, although more notable on the inside. 

Diameter, 14.8cm at base; Height, 9.5cm
