Soft white paste, circa 1784-1803.
Piece of tender pasta with wavy edges used to hold the tops of the cups in them and cool them when filling the ice container or similar. On the outside, it has two handles in the shape of plant elements and small reliefs on the fronts (also enhanced by the gold) which frame floral bouquets with colored leaves. It is possible that the piece belongs to the second period or intermediate stage of the Real Fábrica de Porcelana del Buen Retiro...
