This is L E Smith's 8 inch divided relish dish in the Moon and Star pattern. It's their No. 4281, and they were made between 1963 to 1981. The color of this one is Colonial Blue. It measures 8 1/4 inches wide and 1 1/4 inches tall. There are two dividers, creating 3 sections in the dish.
I can find no damage to this dish, not even use scratches. It is very lovely! On the bottom of one end of the center section there is a manufacturing line, a so called "straw mark" that looks like a scratch, but isn't. It happened during the manufacturing process. This dish weighs 1 pound 9 ounces before packing for shipping. I am happy to answer your questions about this piece. |
