Here is a porcelain cameo made by the Hartford Faience Company of Hartford, CT. Dated 1911, this piece measures 2" in diameter.

I have seen similar patterns in brown and the only other cobalt examples I've seen are in the collection of the Connecticut Historical Society, donated by Margaret Rankin who was the daughter of the original owner of the company.

This is a superb, decorative example of Hartford porcelain to rival Grueby and other fine porcelain makers of that part of the twentieth century.

Please next see photo for condition. There are two very minor bruises on the reverse.

I am asking $95 shipped for this piece and may consider partial trades for crude porcelain or pennycuicks.
