Description: RARE Early 1900s Antique Laughlin Semi-Vitreous China King Charles Pickle Tray / Tidbit Dish RelishTray from Homer Laughlin's King Charles Line with Gold Medallion with Gold line and Bright iridescent golden rim - Featuring the Eagle Over Lion Backstamp! This is a beautiful rare piece from Homer Laughlin's King Charle's line with gold line, gold medallion, and golden iridescent rim to take this decaling over the top! Perfect for as a pickle tray or tidbit tray, place for jewelry, keys, a spoon rest, candy dish, or antique home decor, rare Homer laughlin pieces, gold decal collector, or for the King Charles line collector! The King Charles shape had a rather short production run. Forty-six patterns first appeared in the 1903 pricing catalogs. By 1905, there were 75 total patterns, but that number decreased over the next two years with 58 in 1906 and 45 in 1907. By 1908, King Charles was no longer listed. Like most other HLC shapes from the very early 1900s, King Charles was eventually overshadowed by The Angelus and Hudson. The distinctive flower/chain embossing was not used on any other HLC shape which makes identification easy. It is generally marked with the eagle over lion backstamp shown or with a simple Homer Laughlin-King Charles script marking. Although the line was offered for at least five years and had an extensive assortment, examples are somewhat hard to find. Condition: Very good antique condition. No cracks. Two small underside chips on the underside of the piece. Normal under the glaze crazing. Decal has some use and handling wear, but still in great shape. Minimal factory production imperfections such as sand bumps, glaze pops, glaze misses - all normal factory production. Great display and overall condition for this rare antique piece.
