Striking 19th century commemorative pressed glass plate featuring Sir Moses Montefiore in profile at centre, surrounded by bold lettering and a decorative border.
These were produced as tribute pieces during Montefiore’s lifetime and shortly after—he was a major philanthropic figure in Victorian Britain, and items like this were made to celebrate his legacy.
Classic Victorian pressed glass: crisp moulding, repeating leaf border, and that slightly grey-clear tone typical of the period.
Display piece first, functional second. Reads beautifully on the wall or in a cabinet.
Condition
Good antique condition.
Light surface wear and scratches consistent with age.
No major cracks. Minor edge wear typical of pressed glass.
Measurements
Approx. 30–31 cm diameter
