Hi Aimee, Your butter dish is estimated between $10 to $40. You are missing pieces and that will affect the price. I don't believe your dish was made by The Larkin House company established 1875 which was mainly a soap company which in later years did produce perfumes, spices, coffee, peanut butter, furniture and china. In the 1890's they started inserting what they called premiums in the packages of soap. This was done to get the customers to by more soap. I can't make out the manufacturer of the dish it seems to be scratched up.This dish may have been given to customers or even used in the Larkin House company. Below are some examples of what a quadruple plate can bring at auction: http://www.antiquesnavigator.com/d-100448/pairpoint-silver-quadruple-plate-covered-butter-server.html http://www.antiquesnavigator.com/d-176346/antique-new-haven-quadruple-silver-plate-butter-dish.html http://www.antiquesnavigator.com/d-191765/victor-silver-company-butter-dish-quadruple-plate-2616.html> http://www.antiquesnavigator.com/d-191765/victor-silver-company-butter-dish-quadruple-plate-2616.html Thanks, |
