●●●
PLEASE DO NOT PAY BEFORE YOU HEAR FROM ME
●●●
●●●
VERY IMPORTANT
●●●
Please be sure to
●●●
Read the Small Print
●●●
and
●●●
Wait For My Invoice
●●●
before sending a payment. The end of auction notice eBay sends is sometimes
●●●
incorrect
●●●
especially for
multiple purchases
so
please please
do not use it unless it has been sent for the
●●●
Global Shipping Program
●●●
in which case, the seller cannot
●●●
send or amend
●●●
it.
●●●
VERY VERY IMPORTANT
●●● Please note that the
USPS
does not offer
economy shipping
for
close destinations
unless the item is
dangerous and must travel by ground
. Otherwise, Priority will be the only service offered. Due to the weight of the packed carton I am listing
Parcel
first with
added insurance
considering that some domestic bidders may be across the country. But I will need to change the invoice to
Priority
and
remove the insurance
if you are in or not far from
NYS
. Very often the shipping costs are
nearly the same
for more distant zip codes in which case I always choose Priority which is
faster
.
SO PLEASE WAIT TO PAY!
Priority
is always correct from NY to KY for transfer by the
●●●
Global Shipping Program
.

I AM A LONG TIME COLLECTOR OF ALL KINDS OF
COOKING AND SERVING
ITEMS BUT I JUST HAVE TOO MANY. SINCE I AM NOW AN
ADVANCING SENIOR
I NO LONGER PREPARE FANCY FOODS OR HAVE DINNER PARTIES SO
HOUSEHOLD DOWNSIZING
IS SENDING SOME OF MY
KITCHEN COLLECTIBLES
TO NEW HOMES.
OFFERED IS A TRULY WONDERFUL
HIGH QUALITY
IMPORTED POTTERY
●●●
LADY FOOD DOME & UNDER PLATE
.
●●●
IT IS PERFECT FOR COVERING
ASSORTED CHEESES
OR
PASTRIES
ON YOUR NEXT
SPECIAL OCCASION
TABLE OR BUFFET. WHEN NOT IN USE THE PIECE IS VERY DECORATIVE ON ITS OWN. THERE ARE
LABELS
INSIDE THE DOME AND ALSO UNDER THE PLATE INDICATING
BREMEN HOUSE 80.00
. THE PIECE IS
SIGNED
BUT I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DECIPHER THE NAME .
INTERNET RESEARCH
PROVIDED THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION FROM A
NEW YORK MAGAZINE ARTICLE
TITLED “GONE WITH THE WIND, SIX NEW YORK PLACES THAT VANISHED WHEN WE WEREN’T LOOKING” WRITTEN IN 1990 BY
RICHARD DAVID STORY
.
IN THE MID-20th CENTURY THERE WAS A VERY POPULAR
MANHATTAN STORE
NAMED
BREMEN HOUSE
THAT WAS LOCATED AT
220 EAST 86th STREET
. IT SPECIALIZED IN
GERMAN DELICACIES
. NOTED BY
JOHN SCHWEIGER
, THE STORE MANAGER FOR 35 YEARS, IT WAS OFTEN VISITED BY
FAMOUS PEOPLE
SUCH AS RICHARD NIXON, FRANK SINATRA AND MARLENE DIETRICH. THE STORE CLOSED IN 1976. SO, IT IS VERY LIKELY THAT THIS PIECE WAS
IMPORTED FROM GERMANY
AND MARKETED BY
THE BREMEN HOUSE STORE
. IF THIS IS ACCURATE, I CAN DATE THE PIECE TO THE
1960s or 1970s
. IF PERMITTED BY EBAY I WILL BE GLAD TO PROVIDE THE
URL
FOR THIS
WEB PAGE
.
THIS HIGH QUALITY POTTERY IS VERY SUBSTANTIAL HAVING GOOD SOLID WEIGHT AND A
SEMI-GLAZED SURFACE
WITH A
LIGHTLY STIPPLED TEXTURE
. THE PATTERNS APPEAR TO HAVE BEEN
HAND PAINTED
. THIS
LADY FOOD DOME
WILL BE GREAT FOR CASUAL GET-TOGETHERS AS WELL AS FOR GRAND HOLIDAY BANQUETS. WHEN NOT IN USE, THIS PIECE WILL LOOK REALLY NICE DISPLAYED ON YOUR COUNTER OR ON A SHELF OR IN A GLASS FRONT CABINET. I HOPE YOU WILL WANT TO ADD THIS LOVELY SERVING PIECE TO YOUR OWN
TABLEWARE COLLECTIONS
. IT WILL SURELY BE A
VERY APPRECIATED GIFT
FOR A COLLECTOR IN YOUR CIRCLE OF
FAMILY & FRIENDS
. MY
●●●
REASONABLE ASKING PRICE
●●●
SHOULD BE AN INCENTIVE. I PACK
EXTREMELY WELL
SO YOUR SHIPMENT WILL BE
●●●
WORRY FREE
.
●●●
THANKS FOR VIEWING MY LISTING AND
●●●
GOOD LUCK
●●●
IF YOU DECIDE TO BID!

VERY CHARMING TABLEWARE

THE MEASUREMENTS
:
The dome is approximately 7 1/2" high measured to the top of the head and 8 5/8" wide measured across the base. The plate is approximately 9 3/4" in diameter and 1" high. The dome and plate assembled is 9" high. The weight is just about 2 pounds 2 oz. The completed carton will ship Priority at the 6 pound rate.
THE CONDITION
:
This
Lady Food Dome and Plate Set
is in
excellent condition
.
●●●
Please allow the photos to guide you as they are the lion’s share of this description.
●●●
This item has been very well cared for by its previous owner and does not appear to have been used much at all. It was likely just stored in a cabinet most of the time. The base of the dome is unglazed and as such is slightly discolored. The label on the back of the plate is partially compromised. Otherwise, I do not see anything of consequence to describe.
●●●
I hope I have not missed anything. If I did, it was surely minor and 100% unintentional.
●●●
Just about
99%
of the collectibles I offer are
vintage/pre-owned
and may show a small amount of use. I never list items with
serious damage
or
flaws
. I often
heighten
the
contrast
in my pictures to bring out all the details. The color you see may be slightly
brighter
or
different
than it actually is. Please
inquire
if you are
concerned
.

●●●
I will
accept a return
of this
Lady Food Dome
and will certainly
refund your money
if there was
gross negligence
in my
descriptions
or
photos
.
●●●
Buyer’s Remorse is very unfair to me so please be sure you want to own or gift this tableware.
●●●

36 hrs
of the day your item arrives. The item must be

the included shipping

required

Important
●●●

happy and satisfied

VERY IMPORTANT
●●● Due to internet tax laws, eBay calculates, collects and remits sales tax on behalf of sellers for items shipped to customers in the following states: AL, AZ, AR, CA, CO, CT, DC, FL, GA, HI, ID, IL, IN, IA, KS, KY, LA, ME, MD, MA, MI, MN, MS, NE, NV, NJ, NM, NY, NC, ND, OH, OK, PA, PR, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VT, VA, WA, WV, WI & WY. Additional states will be added to this list as required.
The
continually rising postal rates
have created a difficult situation for sellers. I have
no control
over the price of shipping. If your zip code is far from my location please check the cost before bidding. Please note that I
ship very promptly
but sometimes the mail service is
not as fast
as anticipated. If you are the
winner
please take this into consideration when using the
5 star rating system
. Thanks……….ppaacckkrraatt
Please understand
that when I use the
shipping calculator
it is for your convenience so you can
approximate
how much you will be adding to your bid. It is just an
estimate
determined by weighing a partially packed item. It makes no sense for me to complete a box not knowing if the item will actually be sold. Most of the time the amount is correct but occasionally, after securely packing the item, the weight brings the shipping charge to the
next pound cut-off point
. Sometimes the box weighs less than anticipated! In order to
prevent an error
it is important to
wait for my contact letter and invoice
.
An important note to my valued bidders
:
Please be advised that clicking a
●●●
score of 4
●●●
is
unsatisfactory
according to
eBay's seller standards
and is
considered a negative
, so a
●●●
rating of 5
●●●
across the board is what
I always strive to achieve
. After you have received and examined your item, if you feel I have not earned a 5 star rating in any of the categories, please
contact me immediately
through the "Contact Seller" tab and allow me to correct anything you think is
●●●
less than promised
.
●●●
Non-domestic bidders
,
please
do not request
a
falsified customs slip
. Items will be identified as
eBay merchandise
with a
value
reflecting the
winning bid
price. Please be aware that you are
fully responsible
for any and all
●●●
import duties, tariffs and taxes
●●●
imposed by your country.   Import duties, taxes and fees are
not included
in the item price or shipping charges. These
charges
are the
buyer’s responsibility
. Please check with your country’s
customs office
to determine what these
additional costs
will be
prior
to
bidding/buying
.
eBayers, please read
:
I am always ready and able to provide attentive communication in order to insure a smooth and pleasant transaction. I work very hard to maintain
●●●
100% positive feedback
●●●
and receive
●●●
perfect 5* DSR ratings
.
●●●
Feedback
is a key
indicator
of a buyer's or seller's
reputation
and is very
important
to
exchange
. Positive feedback tells me that your shipment
arrived safely
and that you are a
happy buyer
. In the
unlikely
event that there is a
problem
with your shipment please
notify
me
immediately
and give me the
opportunity
to
resolve
any issues you may have. As always,
thanking
you kindly for your eBay business.
IMPORTANT
!
If you are the
winner
of my auction(s) or have asked a
question
and I have not contacted you please note that my
computer
is on the
Cable System Internet
which goes down occasionally, especially during
icy weather
or
thunder storms
. Sometimes we totally
lose electricity
which can take the technicians many hours to repair. In addition, my
mac
could get a..........
headache
and need to go to the
apple hospital
! I currently do not have any additional
internet connecting devices
. Please be
patient
! If this happens I will be back online ASAP.
SATISFACTION GUARANTEED
