RARE Amberina THREE PIECE Covered Butter or Cheese Dish
Wonderful AMBERINA THREE PIECE Covered Butter or Cheese Dish. This is a rarity, a three piece Victorian Amberina covered butter or cheese dish! The top and base feature an reverse thumbprint optic design. The cover has an applied handle that's been cut and faceted.
The base has an ice well, with a matching insert that covers the ice. I've seen a lot of covered butter/cheese dishes over the years, not a lot of in Amberina, and I've only seen a handful in any type of glass that had an ice well, and even those were typically missing the ice cover, but not this one! The top and base are in excellent condition, with no chips or issues, there are a couple of small chips around the parameter of the ice well insert. Measures about 5-3/4" tall x almost 7" wide.
