Sandwich Plate, Baum Bros Formalities, Victorian Rose, Reticulated & Embossed, Porcelain, China, 1980s

The reticulated (pierced) border is what makes this piece — an oval sandwich tray rimmed in gold, its edge cut in an intricate open-lace pattern with woven-wicker embossing and swirling detail between the cutouts. The Victorian Rose pattern from Baum Bros Formalities brings full-bloom pink and red roses to a cream porcelain ground, and the result is a piece that's as beautiful on a wall display or plate stand as it is on a table. Stamped "Formalities by Baum Bros TM, Made in China."
