Horseshoe Cheese Dish

This beautiful cheese dish was made by Adams and Company in the 1880's. It is in the "Horseshoe" pattern which is also known as "Good Luck" or "Prayer Rug". The handle of the lid is in the trademark form of a horseshoe. The base of the dish shows a woman churning. This dish measures 7 1/2 in diameter and 4 inches in height. It is in amazing condition for its age. There are just a couple of wear marks on the lid, where the two pieces come together.
