About the Item

Extraordinarily rare and fine Antique English Sheffield silver plate and hand painted porcelain Toast or Letter Rack in the imari decor. The plating is in pristine, age-appropriate condition. Toast racks, typically in silver or silver plate, are a staple item in every British household.

These toast racks (original use) are perfect for letter racks or napkins on a buffet. This toast rack is in superb, age-appropriate condition. Maker's mark on base of porcelain for Taylor, Tunnicliffe & Co (Hanley, Staffs.) With rare Registration lozenge on base for February 24, 1872. (Only the best pieces were registered.)
