Biography

This body style is characterized by a diamond shape footprint on pieces such as covered vegetables and a distinctive finial shaped like a chambered spiral which resembles a Nautilus. The spiraled handles continue the nautical theme. Lustred tendrils at the finial and handle terminals resemble seaweed. The relish/pickle is also chambered and features the seaweed tendrils at the handles.
