This large rectangle ironstone MARGARINE display advertising stand was originally used for displaying butter, margarine and other dairy products on the grocer’s shop counter. It measures 16” long x 12” across and 2 1/2” tall.  

The decorative advertising is printed in black.  This is a great antique one.

These pieces supplied grocers and butchers the slabs to offer a customer to purchase slices of margarine, cut off and sold.  A sturdy stand was meant for the heavy duty trade use and easily adaptable to a country kitchen or a contemporary cheese and wine shop.

Great condition with minor discoloration.  Free of utensil marks, probably in a cabinet for last 120 years.  A great decorative example, offered as is.
