This is a Prattware "potlid", circa 1850's, a cover for a cream or salve. These have been very popular collectibles since the process was invented in the 1700's and mastered in the 1840's by the E.R. Pratt Co. of Fenton in Staffordshire. The process was a transfer lithographic process on to porcelain. This is a particularly great barnyard scene marked Country Quarters. Many of the potlids products came to America in the due course of importing goods for society. This is one of the larger sizes being 6" framed in a painted mahogany surround.
