Overview

This is a vibrant peacock blue 'nappy'—a small, handled serving dish—featuring the iconic Moon and Star pattern.

Story

Maker / Origin

The L.E.

Condition & Value

The glass appears to have excellent clarity with no visible 'sickness' or clouding. While the Moon and Star pattern is highly collectible, this specific form (the nappy) was produced in large quantities.
