Auction Genie Presents: We are offering a beautiful VINTAGE (late 1800s) D.F. Haynes & Co. Calvertine-style Terrine. This is a lovely Victorian terrine, with a lion's head on each the handle along with gold detailed flowers in relief for the design. D. F. Haynes of Baltimore, Maryland did not always mark their items. This pieces is marked Toulon Dec. 909-2. Such a company does not exist in our research, so we think this may be a pattern name, or where this piece was manufactured. As for the Dec. 909-2, we are unsure what that means.
Measurements: The terrine measures about 13 inches tall X 14 from handle to handle X 11 inches wide.
Condition: This piece is in overall good, vintage condition. There are a few marks and chips (see photos). The piece is highly crazed which is common with this type of item. There are three chips on the underside of the lid and one on the outside edge of the handle. There is a brown stain on the inside bottom of the terrine. There are no cracks or repairs. The gold paint has rubbed away in some areas. Overall this piece will still display beautifully.
