Antique Brown Transferware Razor Box w/ Roman Bathouse Columns & Figural Leaf & Walnut Finial

$119.99

Brand Copeland Spode

Here's a beautiful, late 19th century razor box with a Greco-Roman bathhouse theme.  It is a brown transfer with a golden lustre finish.  There is a figural walnut attached to a branch and leaves which make the handle.  

The piece measures about 8 3/4" in length, 3 3/4" wide and 3 1/2" to the top of the lid.

This piece is in very good condition with no chips or cracks.  There is a little wear around the lustre trim at the rim and a small rust (?) stain inside that I have not tried to remove.
