    I received this item as part of a milk glass lot. I believe it is the bottom half of a covered animal dish. It is so pretty and the lace edge is very nice, not a chip or nick anywhere. So I would like to know what the top might have been. I've never seen this base before. It's very large, measuring 12 1/2" by 7 1/2" and 3 1/2" high (measured including the lace). The lady whose house it came from collected mostly Atterbury and Challinor Taylor, but I couldn't find anything on that. Has anyone seen this base before or know who made it? It's not marked. I saw an Atterbury Swan that is a possibility but the base was a little different.

    The lid to this dish would have been a swan, a fox, a duck or some other animal. Like a hen on nest, are you familiar with those? If you google covered animal dish, a bunch of images come up.

    Oh. Yes, I've seen animal lids, like the hens on a nest, but never heard a generic name for the category.

    It could also have been a lady's hand, holding a dove, with a red stone on the ring finger

    I saw those, but the lace is different on the short sides of this one.

    I saw that one too. It looked close but the difference is in how the rings spin out on the short sides. Thanks for your help!
