A substantial triangular cheese/food cover/safe by Franz Anton Mehlem of the Royal Bonn Company
dating from the late 1800's.
Lovely floral, fly and bird design to the cover in shades of pink, pale blue and brown
It has an oak leaf, acorn and branch handle
The plate and cover measure approx 2 x 10" x 11" x 8" high including the handle
There is an impressed mark to the base of the plate which dates the dish between 1870 and 1920
And gold numbers to the inside of the cover
I would say from the design the dish dates to the earlier date
The dish has been used but overall is in excellent condition for a piece of this age.
Please take note of the small chip to the base of the plate and the chip to the base of the cover
The gold edgings have also faded and there is some light age staining around edges here and there - see photos
