Large pudding basin with hole, on footed base. Black transfer print above glaze with instructions for proper use. A quirky kitchen contraption circa 1890. |
Pudding was said to be popular with QueenVictoria consisting of a baked or steamed, breadcrumb-thickened mixture, spread with jam and finally topped with meringue…..plum pudding.

Condition is very good, it may have never been used. A few tiny spots of discoloration to the interior. Great decorative item for cottage, country or primitive decor or immediate use.
