Description
A wonderful and rare Tiffany & Co. pedestal cheese tray, as pictured.It's in great condition considering its age. Some typical and expected scuffs & scratches throughout from age, use, and storage. Minor bending along the rim (see final photo). Overall very nice.
The piece dates from the mid-to-late 1800s. It features intricate geometric patterns and a detailed figural mouse creeping through the side, as if to snatch some cheese.
Perhaps a 25th-year commemorative piece, there's a marking on the face of the tray "TR
