Vintage Green Transferware English Staffordshire Ironstone Nesting Hen Lidded Egg Basket Tureen Floral Toile Charlotte
$189.99
Brand Crown Devon
I've just acquired an absolutely charming set of vintage, English chicken egg storage containers, aka hen on nest. This hen on nest is a rare transferware one. It was made by England's Crown Devon and is a nice white ironstone with a crisp green transfer in the Charlotte pattern: a basket filled with freshly cut flowers. These transferware hen on nests are some of the rarest of hen on nests because most are pressed glass or a glazed or painted earthenware / ironstone. They look wonderful setting out on your counter, for storing eggs, trinkets or etc. I use mine to hold our corn on cob holders.
Measures: appx 9" across x 7" wide x 9" tall at tallest point
Condition: small chip to inside rim of base. This only shows if you take the lid off and isn’t too bad regardless.
Marked: CROWN DEVON ENGLAND
