Armance Dish
Formerly used as an olive dish, this sweet small tray was made in England from bone china. By 1923, the relish tray had become a variety of tidbits arranged on a platter. It was a small course before dinner—with drinks when entertaining for holidays and other special family meals. The olive/relish tray became popular in the 1930s with the advent of home refrigerators.
This is a found object, in great condition. The piece has no chips or cracks. It is a bit worn on the bottom from rubbing against the surface it was set on. There is also a bit of wear around the edges of the gold paint.
The dish is 8 1/4 inches long by 2 1/4 inches wide. The ledge of the tray sits on a slant and measures about 1/2 inches to the inside of the dish. It stands about 3/4 of an inch tall.
Additional uses: pencil tray, hair pins, rings, tiny treasures.
