Figure Dish 1880 - 1890

The "Figure Dish" was created by McKee and Brothers, a prominent glassmaking company, between 1880 and 1890. This delicate piece is a prime example of the Victorian era's fascination with nature and symbolism. It features a reclining lamb resting on a basket-woven dish, a popular motif representing purity and innocence. The piece showcases McKee's meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail, evident in the lifelike rendering of the lamb's wool and the intricate basketwork design. "Figure Dish" is currently part of the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
