Early Open Salt Dish

This is a rare open salt dish made by Hoechst during their early years in the 18th century around 1760. The piece has a superb shape with a nice relief apttern to the rim, a brown trim to the edge and lots of flowers / floral arrangements all around. Some elongated leaves with yellow flowers were painted on firing flaws - thin firing cracks mostly on the top inside. A big black firing spot on the underside was also converted into a leaf :) The salt is marked underneath with the red wheel mark as well as an impressed set of letters I and two other ones I cannot make out. The dish is in superb condition with wear to the brown trim on the rim and a small shallow rim chip to the underside footring. It is 1.5 inches tall, 3.5 inches wide and 2.75 inches deep.
