It measures 11 inches wide and 2 1/8 inches tall.
Its Display Wonde...rfully and is in Very Good condition especially for its age.
There are no chips or cracks or damage. It has under-the-glaze crazing as expected from ironstone of this era and there is what appears to be some left over material from the manufacturing process (grains of sand) trapped under the glaze (last photo).
