A wonderful and rarely seen example of an antique ironstone cheese dome, in a creamy grey colour, with banded barrel effect decoration.
Dating from the early 20th Century, this ironstone cheese cloche would have been intended for use to cover stilton cheese. It is rare to see these now, especially in such lovely clean condition as this. This cloche is missing its base but is nonetheless still a very decorative item in its own right. It is an imposing, heavy weight and eye catching item to have on the home, both on display and for use.
Considering its age, this cheese cloche is in very good condition. It is a very clean example. The grey colouring is unusual. There are some age marks dotted across the piece, but there are no cracks or crazing. There are some nibbles to the base rim from where this has been used over the years.
Height, 19cm; Diameter, 21cm
