핸드페인트 초상화 버터 펫.

Hand Painted Portrait Butter Pat circa 1890. This is a highly collectable portrait pat that was produced during the Victorian era. They were made by overlaying an outline of the silhouette and then artists would hand paint them. The backgrounds are usually gold or white and it is not uncommon to find the same portrait finished in various colors. No 2 portraits are exactly alike though, even if done by the same porcelain artist. It measures 6.8 cm across. Originally, many of these pats were sold as sets in decorative velvet or silk lined boxes. The only mark is an impressed number. There is gold wear and loss (check pictures carefully). No chips or cracks
