Just take a close look at the photos!. No chips or cracks on the glass and what an amazing survival story.  Notice the

patent dates on the original label which is pasted to a cork insert.  You can see the years of 1881 and 1882.  The darling

little cloth flowers appear also to be original but I can't be sure.  There was also bits and pieces of typed paper that said

"Grandma Rai.......y.......Cake Plate.......(given) to me clear ribbon pattern". Some of the paper was missing so I can only

speculate that it actually said "Grandma Rainey (possibly) cake plate given to me clear ribbon pattern".  Not sure if

the last name was Rainey or not. You will receive the little scraps of typed paper, the original cork insert with the cloth

flowers and the glass cake salver.  Serve a cake the way grandma did 140 years ago!  The glass stands 8 inches tall 

and measures 10 inches across the top.  Any questions please ask.
